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.

### ALIIRA Escucha (NILU (DK) & Phonique Remix): Your Cosmic House Trip Awaits

Strap in, clubbers! ALIIRA is back in the booth with a track hotter than a warehouse in July. She's dropped "Escucha," a sizzling electro-leaning house number, and it's pure fire. This Ukrainian groove architect, previously one-half of the renowned Husky project, is flexing her solo skills on Zatar Music's latest release. Mark your calendars for August 15, folks.

After years of crafting dancefloor gems, ALIIRA's got her eyes on the prize. Her "Escucha" EP is a tasty blend of original tracks and slamming remixes, showing off her knack for making the crowd move. The title track "Escucha" is a vibrant explosion of vocal chops and crisp percussion. It's punchy, vibrant, and practically begs for a reload in those basement clubs.

Danish dynamo NILU (DK) and Zatar chief Phonique take the remix reins. They’ve sculpted an angular, edgy rework that screams peak-time play. This remix doesn't just send the room sideways; it twists it into a cosmic frenzy. Perfect for those East Berlin sweatboxes or a cheeky London afters.

And don't sleep on "Devi," the EP's hypnotic tech house b-side. It's all rolling rhythms and layered melodies, with a touch of psychedelic flair. Urmet K strips it down to its essentials, crafting a summer-ready groove that pairs perfectly with a Croatia boat rave.

So, get ready to dive into ALIIRA's world when the "Escucha" EP drops on August 15. Grab your copy on Beatport, and let the cosmic journey begin!

Josh Gigante returns to Diynamic with Wild Things, a three-track EP that feels like stepping into a storybook night with three unforgettable characters. The title track bursts in like the first spark of twilight - glittering disco riffs entwined with a wobbling bassline, teasing the promise of an epic night ahead. Back Together created together with Tom Zelta, lounges in next - cocktail in hand, exuding a warm, lazy charm like a sunset melting over palm-fringed boulevards. Finally, Sensations slips out of the shadows - the mysterious one - wrapping whispering vocals and lush synths around high patterns, pulling you into a dreamscape where time fades and the dancefloor becomes a universe of its own.

Bonafique step into the Get Physical spotlight with their ‘Monologue EP’.

Get Physical Music welcomes rising duo Bonafique with their label debut, the two-track ‘Monologue EP’. With a string of standout releases on labels like Maccabi House and Crosstown Rebels already under their belt, Bonafique now bring their genre-blending flair to Get Physical.

Opening track ‘Monologue’ rides a warm, groove-heavy bassline, accented by crisp percussion and lightly infectious vocals. The arrangement builds subtly, introducing a cascade of synth textures that add depth and lift without overpowering the track’s slick, indie dance charm. It’s a polished, versatile cut made with the dancefloor in mind.

‘Ego Trip’ turns up the energy with a driving, retro-tinged bassline and bright vocal fragments that bubble beneath shimmering arpeggiated chords. The track blends nostalgia with forward momentum, wrapping Bonafique’s signature sound in a bold, club-friendly package.

Already known for their refined, melodic approach to electronic music, Bonafique’s debut on Get Physical adds a new chapter to their upward trajectory. The ‘Monologue EP’ is playful, detailed, and ready to move bodies. It is an impressive addition to both the duo’s catalog and the label’s evolving roster.

When I first explored the label called Controlla, I was both shocked and surprised, and couldn't imagine such a thing existed in the audio-visual universe. Some years passed, and while it turned out we're running a Mexican-music-outlet Ali X suddenly approached Complaint with crazy track ideas. Now we're talking.

Public Possession's Aussie non-professional smoke-machine @djedenburns delivered an ass-shaking, minimalistic version of the title track, and the game is just on. Maybe sounds annoying for the first listen, but when you realize the geniusity of this dude, you'll spin his remix on repeat.

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)
