Enduro Disco sprinkles more magic onto Exploited, after his last release for the label, ‘CIAO’, smashed its way into the Top 5 Indie Dance Chart on Beatport via its Biesmans Remix Version.
Enduro Disco keeps the heat flowing on Exploited with his latest cut ‘Deep In My Heart’, with a top remix from the prolific Holger Ziske (Playhouse) to boot.
‘Deep In My Heart’ exemplifies his spacious, atmospheric and groovy sound with a deceptively simplicity of ideas that makes more than the sum of its parts. Pleasingly thick claps punctuate a shaker-driven beat as slivers of colourful synth create a flowing conversation of sound. Swirling pads and blurry vocals build a dreamy feel as the plodding bassline ascends and descends the scale with a funky intent. The track is in no hurry to go anywhere, instead cruising along at its own deep, rolling pace. A stripped-back mid-section gives more room to breathe, and little else is needed to make this breezy jam an addictive treat.
Holger Zilske is somewhat of a legend on the Berlin scene thanks to his numerous works and an album he released on the classic house label Playhouse in 2009. His slightly more urgent remix retains the deep vibe of the original but laces it with a dubby feel and more of a taut inflexion in its percussive groove. Doing away with the niceties, it has a real stomp to its groove and makes for a highly effective alternative route. 
Make sure you also check out his upcoming release on Tensnake's True Romance label.

Out now on Crosstown Rebels: lnk.to/CRM260

Rogue D & Memoryman AKA Uovo team up for their latest release with the Electric Safari EP. The four-tracker marks their collaborative debut on Crosstown Rebels, fresh from Total Black on Rebellion in 2019, and includes two remixes by longstanding German talent, Roman Flügel.

Both artists spoke of how the release came together, stating: “The effects part of DJ Harvey’s Berghain and the synths of Padlock inspired us. A mix of these two masterpieces came to us while we were performing and recording, helping us create a mix of afro, electric funk and dub. The result is a trip to Africa with DJ Harvey!”

That tribal sound is felt right from the get go, as rustling hats marry up next to whirring synth pulses throughout. Ethereal keys chime beside resonant kicks whilst bell-like tones march on in the background. Roman Flügel’s remix takes on a more minimal-inspired feel, where a punchy underlying bassline perfectly compliments the celestial chord solos, before proceedings get stripped back further on the B Side with a dub version of each track. Italian-native Rogue D is a well-loved figure in the contemporary house sphere. Renowned as one of half of Flashmob, his back-catalogue boasts EPs on an array of the scene’s leading labels, including Hot Creations, Crosstown Rebels and Defected to name a few. Fellow Italian-mainstay Memoryman AKA Uovo has garnered a global following in a career that spans decades. One third of the legendary Pastaboys collective, his productions have found a home on Snatch! Records and Rebellion in recent times. Roman Flügel has been a champion of Germany’s electronic music scene since the nineties. A prolific producer, the likes of Gerd Janson’s Running Back and Sven Väth’s Cocoon Recordings have welcomed his releases with open arms over the years.

'I'm very happy and excited to share this very first PALP EP.

Releasing a record should always be something special : spreading your own music and releasing it to the world is something extraordinary.

Even though i cherished every track i've been releasing so far, carefully mixing, composing, producing every bits of each tune, after hundreds of records you don't feel you're doing something special anymore.This one is different, because this is my first EP on my own label."All Night" is a special track to me, somewhere between house music and disco, and i think it's got this thing that makes it an instant floor filler, a summer or winter anthem.

On remix duty, Scruscru is putting his magic touch, bringing a modern broken-beat feeling to the track.

"Brotherhood" is very influenced by theo parrish and moodymann's work, starting with strings and evolving to a neverending disco build up, with vocal snippets that will sound familiar to any soul music lover.

I hope you like it as much as i do, there's a lot of love, work and passion in this first label release.

'Passionate about building bridges between past and present electronic music influences, Frappe is back with a fifth EP named "Afrodisique" . Keeping in mind that contemporary electronic dance music finds its origins in the sound of african and afro-american communities, this new record is the missing link between world famous artists of the "Afro House" genre and the French productions of the early 00s. The record also clearly states the love affair between the label and the genre, which never fails to bring out the spirit of the dance.

The much charismatic Floyd Lavine comes up with "Creda Mutwa" a very unique, powerful, dancefloor-orientated Afro Acid track. This one fits the artist's musical identity, which is a mix between South Africa where he comes from, and Berlin where he lives and has founded the RISE club nights (at club Watergate) which have redefined the afro house sound in recent years.'

Early feedback in from Terr, Alinka, Fred Everything, Till Von Sein, Justin Strauss, Kraak & Smaak, Doctor Dru, Joyce Muniz...

Lately, Enduro Disco released on Tensnakes' label True Romance.
This new release features two stunning tracks that continue his strong vein of gently euphoric, deep rollers and bring to mind some of Orbital’s more blissed-out moments.
‘Forever’ is a heavenly track filled with airy vocal delays, deft synth hooks and dreamy melody. His clever use of reverbs and delays create a track that feels spacious from the opening and never cluttered. A tumbling conga rhythm decorates muted claps and a shuffling shaker-driven beat, with the melodic elements teasingly filtered in over the pulsing, funk-licked bassline. A soaring lead line rears its head above the parapet as the vocal snippets flit across the stereo field and snatches of disco strings punctuate sections with a crescendo feel. The break strips things down, with stuttering sample cuts of the strings flipping the feel of the track while a delicate synth pulse floats underneath. It’s warm, sensual and a little bit Balearic.
‘Dream’ rocks a shimmering electronic disco beat, with brilliant use of effects, hazy vocal samples and dissonant synth flourishes building a technicolour patchwork of sounds. The understated bass throb adds weight underneath heavily sidechained pads as the hypnotic mix of flavours builds towards the break. More clever sampling heightens the tension as rasping synths flutter at the edges of the soundscape and a euphoric chord progression comes into play. Layer upon layer of gorgeous sound builds to thicken out this breezy feel, the sumptuous female vocal destined to cause goosebumps wherever it’s heard. A delightful experience that will leave you feeling refreshed and uplifted.

Early feedback:
Terr: Dream for me. Really beautiful. Thank you for sharing.
Alinka: Beautiful.
Till Von Sein: Dream got that old Cookies/Weekend 2005 Berlin style. Love it.
Wahm: Loving Forever. Will play for sure.
Justin Strauss: Nice disco vibes.
Kyodai: Love it.
Joyce Muniz: Lovely tunes.
Fred Everything: Both tracks are nice. Lovely modern 80s vibe.
Kraak & Smaak: Loved his stuff since I first heard of him. Ace!
Doctor Dru: Grande Enduro!

Phonk D is back on Exploited’s hallowed Black Jukebox series following the success of his #29 takeover earlier this year. You just can’t keep a good man down...

‘Let’s Shake’ leads the way with serious funk intent, mixing a thumping MJ-esque bassline with some of that late ‘70s / early ‘80s synth magic. Phasing guitar licks sidle up against spunky horn swells and sassy vocal blasts. It’s a track that has ‘party-starter’ written all over it.

‘Reality Dance’ is a chuggier beast, building slowly through looping guitar-and-bass plucks until a feel-good melody emerges. This low-slung, low-tempo groove is in no hurry to lay out its funky machinations, making for a perfect early-evening floor-filler as cocktail glasses clink and glitterballs bling.

‘Players Anthem’ chunks things up with conga-inflected groove and an arpeggiated bassline throb underpinning swooning female vocal harmonies. It rocks a simple arrangement that lets the groove do the talking, with sustained string notes adding an element of tension at the requisite moments.

‘No Limits’ sees Phonk D team up with old sparring partner Sascha Ciminiera for another hot collab. The bouncing off-beat groove pumps pleasingly in classic disco fashion, with a joyous mood built through Rhodesy chords and a scintillating synth line. Swelling horns are buried deep in the mix in the second half to help propel the track higher.

NEAT have bottled up some of that frosty Stockholm atmosphere in their new 3-track EP, ‘Lavish All Round’, ready to deliver more deeply chilled melodic house across the world.
The title track gallops along at a decent pace with stuttering snare fills propelling it with added urgency as a nagging hook filters in and out of the depths. Deft chords do battle with a sprightly, fizzing synth blast in a question-and-answer style arrangement. The percussion builds further, the nagging refrain and the various melodic elements combining in softly euphoric harmony.
‘Ambiente Fashion’ is a somewhat meatier affair, featuring one Ms. Trance Late. Analog drum machine rhythms percolate in a tribal arrangement as vox pads and rubbery electro bass build a solid groove foundation. An Italo-esque arpeggio tickles and trickles its way into this thick mesh of sound, providing the track’s gently pulsating vocal element. It’s a hypnotic ride through subtle FX touches, robotic vocal snatches and continual automation that gives it a living, breathing feel.
‘Lit Forever’ makes for a dazzling finale, spilling over with old skool synth leads and arpeggios that hark back to ‘90s prog in a beautiful way. The pitter-patter of hi-hats and the smack of drum machine snares provide the foundations for these resplendent melodic elements to flow over, as plaintive bass notes permeate the frosty atmospherics. A thing of real beauty.

Shir Khan started Exploited in 2007. Exploited Rec now plays host to some wide-ranging and innovative electronic talent - including Adana Twins, Claptone, Budakid, Joyce Muniz, James Curd, Shir Khan (to name a few) - and its artists have been receiving numerous supportive spins from the likes of Solomun, Pete Tong, Soul Clap, Wolf&Lamb, Azari&III, Jesse Rose, Axel Boman and A-Trak.
This is serious dance music at it's most cutting edge with all the juice to really get you going. It's totally contemporary, innovative and has a chunky dirty feel. "Exploited" take you on an invigorating roller coaster ride back to your youth when you first listened to dance music with all the thrills and spills you so enjoyed about clubbing. It's heavy, exciting and special.
'"Exploited Records" is a seamless melting pot of varied styles that simply can't fail to please even the most discerning ears. Highlights here are plentyful. Not to be missed at any cost.' (Clash)
'Musical hybrids are truly the flavour of today, but few have managed to capture the atmosphere of an unpredictable microcosm of a night out on a recordlabel - until now. Shir Khan's label "Exploited" bottles the zeitgeist's giddy thrills with plenty of style and substance. This is dance music hybridism in all its most glorious forms, and Shir Khan is an expert at making square pegs fit round holes.' (DJ-Mag)
'"Exploited Records" boss Shir Khan has been gaining a lot of acclaim recently, and deservedly so - as he has shown us the high quality, diversity and forward-thinking nature of his label. Engaging, riveting and diverse.' (Data Transmission)
