Marcus Meinhardt is not the one to stay on the lazy side. After an immensely busy tour schedule he went straight back to the studio to make some new bangers. True to his own style, the track we hear this year, “House Of Beats”, is a very unique piece packed to the brim with emotion, supplemented by a dub version.

The upbeat mode of the track underlines the positive attitude of Marcus. First and foremost this lies in the addictive groove and tight percussion work, which creates the perfect frame for a massive, crisp synth. It is all underlined by a proclaiming vocal drawing on inspirations from classics but keeping it fresh and modern. As the dub version leaves the vocal element out, the tune strikes you as just meant for the dance floor, carrying great momentum when focusing on the synth alone as well. No doubt this is already one of the big ones this year.

Early Feedback:
Christian Martin: Feeling the dub!
Gabriel Ananda: The Dub for me, its a pretty clever combination of slow and fast melodic elements. gr8 m8.
Florian Kruse: Ganz starkes Teil!
Russoul: This is funk and has lots of attitude!
Super Flu: Cool. Will enjoy playing. 
Sasha: Bubbly cool.

CalloohCallay is a multidimensional music project that blends emotional depth, expansion and optimism within technoid soundscapes. Their music stands out with complex arrangements, evolving structures, and a signature sonic identity. The duo pulls you into a vortex with their basslines that expand dynamically, keeping the listener on edge in a raw and intense journey.
Long before focusing on producing their own tracks and playing DJ sets, the multi-instrumentalist duo took a deep dive into the art of performing live techno, combining drum computers, synthesizers, and MIDI controllers, creating numerous hypnotic happenings 2018/2019. 

CalloohCallay first started with broken gear and a tight budget. Despite that, the two musicians embraced trial and error, experimenting extensively. While Basti has incredible know-how in music theory and melodic instruments, Nico is renowned for his continuous output in the rhythm section, specializing in drums and percussion. 
In their studio near Stuttgart, CalloohCallay are now focusing more on working on their own releases. At the same time, they are resident DJs at the iconic Romantica – the heart of Stuttgart's underground techno scene.
While the region’s economy is shaped by the automotive industry and the German Mittelstand, the electronic music scene has largely remained a part-time, community-driven effort - perhaps due to a mix of structural and cultural factors. As a result, many talented artists operate with a sense of creative modesty rather than self-promotion. 
In this context, CalloohCallay remains one of Swabia’s best-kept secrets, though that may soon change with their debut EP set for release in spring 2025.

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)
