The White Lamp - It's You (Ron Basejam Remix)

Early support by Loco Dice, Tiga, Boys Noize, Erol Alkan, Audiojack, XXXY, dOP, Ossie, Miguel Campbell, Danny Howard/BBC Radio1, Kiki...

UK-based Australian Light Year’s last record ’Never Know’ on Exploited had ’strains of chill wave and witch house, with looped, distant vocal snippets and a breezy vibe. Since his release on Spectral Sound the former electro house producer was saying hello to L.I.E.S, Trilogy Tapes and more straightforward house and techno.’ (Resident Advisor) 
While his first releases were leaning on the more melodic side ’Feeling This Way’ (his follow-up on Exploited) is more functional and stripped down just to the bare essentials - a drum track and a vocal snippet - pretty much influenced by some of the Ghetto House records he was listening to when he did this track. ’Slow Burn’ on the other hand is a collaboration with Jas Shaw from Simian Mobile Disco. Jas had just sourced some new pieces of kit for the SMD live album concept they were working on. They used a Cirklin sequencer - one of the most intuitive analogue sequencers you could probably use. The track pretty much wrote itself once they sequenced their modular synthesizer. The final version was created, produced and mixed in that one session. We hope you enjoy these 2 infectious tracks as much as we do.

Light Year - Feeling This Way | Exploited

St Germain - Pont De Art (bydesign Edits)

There’s little to say about someone who is, without a doubt, a living legend of Japan’s underground electronic scene. Mori Ra has been with us since the very beginning of MM Discos — perhaps one of the reasons the label was born, grew, and became what it is today. Impossible to categorize — it’s not just music, not just a sound, but a sonic experience. With two records on the MM Discos catalog that sold out in less than a month, it is both a pleasure and a must for us to have him on this compilation. Essential.

Mori Ra - Hood Edit

Super rare afro disco boogie edits from Guynamite and Nik Mukatsuku (aka Guynamukat)! The production duo have been banging out remixes and edits for the past couple years and slip us 3 absolute scorchers that shine amongst the current trend of rare African records being repressed (see all the excellent Soundway releases and recent Lagos Disco comp). But unlike a lot of the stuff being repressed, these aren't just tracks edited for rarities sake, these joints are heaters that'll really work the dancefloor! Check the burning grooves of "Looking After Number 1(1)" Revenge Of Mark Eyo Edit, so hot! I was pretty much sold on that track alone, but the heat continues on "Sexy Sexy Lady(2)" with its smooth grown and sexy vibe, and the funky "Enjoy Your Life(3)." 3 for 3 right here, recommended.

ZHUT & KAPOTE are part of that new wave of Berlin producer kids that are doing dirty, funk-based house music. Max Graef, Session Victim, Hodini... There is a growing scene of producers that do dance music that is far away from that 90ies techno revival sound that has become kind of a Berlin tourist cliche. These new kids love old jazz vinyl, MPC-productions and old synths. They want a warm, nasty sound that has it's roots in soul music - not in Ableton Live standard Deep House sound setups.

Kapote already released an EP and some edits on Toy Tonics, while Zhut is part of tech-funk group Black Loops. The boys combine old, rare samples from the 1970ies with their own way of playing live drum machines and their fucked up synthesizers. It's jazzy, funky house music. Reminding certain records from the french wave like La Funk Mob or Versatile and the music of American maestros like Paul Johnson or Detroit's Red Planet.

Premiere: Ponty Mython - House For Sale [Better Listen Records]

The “Soul Clap Remixes” leads with a bang.  Instrumental jam, “Funk Bomb” gets a proper re-rub by Blakdoctor aka Los Angeles rave legend Doc Martin and Blakkat, who strip Funk Bomb back to the essential groove, beefing it up for dance floor hypnosis with just the right amount of dubbing, FX and vocal ad libs by frequent collaborator, Lilia. Underground Italian New Disco expert Jolly Mare flips “Future 4 Love” into a primetime Italo beast, complete with marching disco bass, call and response synth leads and plenty of modulated melody. Obas Nenor, known for his work with Moodymann’s Mahogani music as well as his own imprint Nenorion, delivers a funk bassline driven version of “Dirty Leslie” that focuses on the original vocals but leaves plenty of room to breath and dance. Finally, Soul Clap Records own resident Jamaican David Marston totally reinterprets “Numb”, reshuffling and looping Ebony Houston’s vocals around a beautiful and melodic downtempo feel. Myles Karp’s guitar and bass work shine through and muted trumpet from Aquiles elevates this remix to a whole new level of class and sophistication.

Exploited Rec promises to strip the wallpaper from the walls of your home stereo.
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)
