Very nice groove for this summer !!! Yooo Kiko !!!!

Exploited

There’s a lot of amazing things aligning here with this premiere.  First off, it’s new material from Klaxons. This alone is momentous as they were essentially one of the first acts to really take off in blog culture almost 10 years ago and have even had trends based on them in the UK.  Basically, they broke the internet before there was such a thing.  Second, there are some serious names affiliated with this new material that’s supposed to be presented as a new album in the Spring.  The album appears to be steered in some part by Tom Rowlands (1/2 of the Chemical Brothers…HELLO) and the one and only James Murphy (LCD Soundsystem, DFA Records).  These facts alone have me geeked as they are two of my bigger influences in all of dance music.  Third, this premiere.  Word is Gorgon City produced the original and Claptone, who’s been on fire in the disco house realm for some time, took this to the deep house stratosphere.  So essentially this whole project seems crazy and I’m officially now on pins and needles waiting for more to drop.

'Belgian producer Mickey makes music that's just like his country's chocolate: sweet, smooth and oh-so-enticing. Last year's Exploited releases 'LA Anyway' and 'Holding Hands', especially the latter, are exactly that, not forgetting the stunning 'Sweet Baby' and remixes of Sébastien Tellier and Claptone.
Another Exploited release, 'You Know The Beat', is coming this month and it's a lively, juicy fruit slab of bumpin' house. This guy's roll ain't ending any time soon by the sound of things.' (Mixmag)

'This irresistable piece of funked up house music comes from one of our favourite artists, Mickey. Always delivering freshness, Exploited team up with him again for another unbeatable release. We love this track and will be playing it all year, ideal for brightening up a dreary winter’s day!' WORD UP.' (Deephouse London)

'The general trend in house music as of late has been a bit on the dark side but it doesn’t mean that the best music has been in that territory. Top pick of the week is by the Belgian producer simply known as Mickey who is back on Exploited with this disco-funk jam called “You Know The Beat”.' (Magnetic Magazine)

Featured on upcoming DJMag Selection 01 Compilation + early support by BBC Radio1/Danny Howard, dOP, Erol Alkan, Totally Enormous Extinct Dinosaurs, Martin Landsky, Laurent Garnier, Tensnake, Riva Starr, ZDS, Arthur Baker, Miguel Campbell, DJ T, Sasha, Bag Raiders, Wildkats, Kasper Bjoerke, Waifs & Strays, Noir, Mia Dora, Laidback Luke, Sonny Fodera, James Curd, Moodymanc, Pezzner, Kyodai, Nils Nuernberg, Crackazat, Brett Johnson, Compuphonic, James Curd, PJU, Jamie Anderson, Sinden, Phonique, Khan, Smash TV.

Mickey starts the New Year with another great anthem. 'You Know The Beat' is a mixup of 90ies French House, combined with a classic old school American House Vibe and Groove. Think Cassius meets Todd Terry.

We saw Mickey, as a newcomer, growing on the label Exploited. His releases 'Sweet Baby', 'Holding Hands' and 'Walk Away' are topping our label's bestsellers of the year 2014. His track 'Sweet Baby' was among the Top 10 best selling tracks at Beatport in the genre Deephouse. Next to his Belgian residency at the infamous 'Libertine Supersport' nights, he travels all over the world to rock the crowd with his energetic DJ sets.

He just finished a remix for Australian 'Modular Label‘ stars 'Bag Raiders' and is currently in London working on his next single.

Fresh from hitting their first festival of the summer at Valencia’s Festival de les Arts this weekend, The Wombats can now unveil enigmatic producer Claptone’s remix of ‘Be Your Shadow’. The original version of  ‘Be Your Shadow’ is set to impact on June 22nd and features on the band’s current album ‘Glitterbug’ which hit #5 in the UK and #2 in Australia. 

Claptone's remixes for the likes of Metronomy, Pet Shop Boys, Klaxons and Gregory Porter have all been chosen because he feels an affinity with the original artist. This is evident throughout Claptone’s imaginative reinventions as he relishes translating such songs for the dance floor.

His interpretation of ‘Be Your Shadow’ strips the song back to basics before progressively rebuilding the track towards a heightened crescendo of sound. Throughout, Claptone expertly weaves beats and atmospheric soundscapes around The Wombats’ frontman Matthew ‘Murph’ Murphy’s melodic vocal delivery. 

Claptone has worked hard to maintain his position as a consistently innovative global influencer. His big news for 2015 comes with his highly anticipated debut artist album, the campaign for which commenced when the track ‘The Music Got Me’ was picked as Pete Tong’s Miami Essential New Tune. ‘The Music Got Me’ and another new production ‘Dear Life’ subsequently stormed to the top of the Beatport charts. The album will be packed with vocal contributions from the likes of  Peter, Björn & John; Jimi Tenor; Nathan Nicholson (The Boxer Rebellion); Clap Your Hands Say Yeah; Young Galaxy; Jaw (from dOP); Jay-Jay Johanson and more. Claptone will then take his awe-inspiring 'Immortal Live' show to key festivals such as Melt! in Germany, Balaton Sound in Hungary and SW4 in London over the summer.

A golden scooped beak slowly emerges from the darkness. Claptone is bringing us ‘Charmer’, his first artist album.

In the last few years Claptone has become known for releasing big tracks primed for late nights and packed clubs all over the world. ‘Charmer’ however fuses his signature house sound with a more eclectic aesthetic, featuring guest appearances from Nathan Nicholson (The Boxer Rebellion), Jimi Tenor, Young Galaxy, Jay-Jay Johanson and Clap Your Hands Say Yeah amongst others.

He today shares introductory track ‘Puppet Theatre’ ft. Peter, Bjorn and John, a collaboration which offers a glimpse of the depth to be found when peeling back the layers of ‘Charmer’.

The album will drop following a packed summer touring schedule which reaches all corners of the globe and it follows the run-away success of Claptone's remix for Gregory Porter, a tune which dominates Ibiza this year and has been the biggest selling track on Beatport for months on end.


The album also features ‘Dear Life’ and ‘The Music Got Me’ as well the early singles ‘No Eyes’ and ‘Ghost’, both enormous smashes on essential Berlin house label Exploited.

Claptone will be holding album launch parties all over the planet in the coming months kicking off with a special showcase at W Amsterdam on the eve of release during Amsterdam Dance Event.
‘Charmer’ is set for release on 16/10/15 on Different Recordings (the label that launched the careers of Crystal Castles, Tiga, Crystal Fighters, Vitalic).

The Exploited Records poster boy steps back into the spotlight with a winning formula that’s gained him support throughout clubs worldwide.
Belgian producer Mickey delivers a sensual groover that’s destined to get those juices flowing.
This deep and seductive burner carries some solid disco and house elements that are arranged in a way that sounds completely fresh.
Berlin’s Exploited can be counted on to deliver those world-class house grooves, often equally bringing both a classic and modern flavor with their releases, and the latest from Mickey does a wondrous job of bleeding these seemingly-different elements together in his latest single ‘Disco Lights’. A chunky house stepper with a rollicking bass groove, jaunty piano stabs and some mean, vintage funk sample appropriation. Its a lively, juicy fruit slab of bumpin’ disco house.

We are welcoming T.U.R.F. ❤️ 
The dutch duo made their debut in 2017 on Apparel Music and had continued their musical journey at the Berlin-based Exploited Records, where they’ve released a number of highly diverse and widely supported EPs.
They express their longtime love of house music in many shapes and forms, ranging from the grooving house from Chicago, to the deep vibes from Detroit, to the filtered disco sounds from Paris. 
This 2 track EP is the perfect blend of warm disco & house, with a punchy groove & soulful vocals.

T.U.R.F. - Sweet Desires

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)
