'Reels Rebel' premiered by Flux: 
"Mennie’s approach to producing the music involved a classic aesthetic, drawing upon vintage machines to build up his grooves. From the track structure to the way samples have been worked, you most certainly get this classic tech-house feel. There’s this vintage sheen to ‘Reels Rebel’ that reeks of class, achieved through a most capable handling of percussion and an addictive riff on the loop. A rare breath of quality in a sea of generic four-to-the-floor." 

'Haus' premiered by Big Shot Magazine:

"Italian house producer/Club 999 resident Mennie returns to Exploited Ghetto with the Reels Rebel EP, a smoldering new release which picks up where the Florence-based phenom’s 2015 track “Phoenix” for the label left off. Listen to a down and dirty floor mover oozing with old-school NYC house vibes." 

DMC Review: 
http://www.dmcworld.net/reviews/entry/house/mennie-reels-rebel-exploited-ghetto.html 
"It’s became Mennie’s calling card to consistently deliver dancefloor oriented grooves that surreptitiously tease, then grab, then seduce then pound the senses into disco submission. ‘Reels Rebel’ is the choice cut, pulsing with Masters At Work flavoured duck or ‘Everyday’ beats and a funk-fuelled bassline high roller. Filtered synths and crunchy and crisp beats pin it down for tinny hi-hats and whipcracking snares to trample all over. ‘Haus’ is a more subtle treat with warm, delayed synth pads, clicking syncopated beats and a deep, mellow bassline that rolls then smokes like a fat cuban cigar. It’s really quite lovely. But then you expected that anyway." 

Early support by Matthias Tanzmann, Mathias Kaden, Dusky, Audiojack, Alex Neri, Mark Farina, Huxley, GoldFFinch, Laurent Garnier, Nic Fanciulli, Lee Foss, Russoul, Claude Von Stroke, Tensnake, Magda, DJ T, Booka Shade, Adana Twins, Luna City Express, Steve Lawler, Riva Starr, Sidney Charles, Kiki, Flashmob, Christian Martin, Martin Eyerer, Sasha, And.ID, The Mekanism, David Jach, Whitesquare, Hollis P Monroe, Inland Knights, Larse... 

Happy 2016 everyone. Here is something fresh for the weekend. 
Italian producer Mennie is back on Exploited Ghetto. Lately, he remixed Scuba alongside Bambook on Circus Recordings as well as DJ W!ld on Flashmob LTD. 
His first Exploited Ghetto release ‘Phoenix’ from 2015 was featured in Matthias Tanzmann’s Essential Mix on BBC Radio 1 and his music has been supported by DJs such as Loco Dice, Heidi, Koelsch, Groove Armada to mention a few.  
His ’Reels Rebel’ EP is a strong mix of classic house roots and organic sound melted with some old samples.

Mennie - Haus | Exploited Ghetto

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)
