Enduro Disco continues his mesmerising run of form on Exploited with another
spellbinding three-track release.
‘Julio’ is unmistakably his handiwork: a classy, spacious slice of modern, dubbed-out
disco. Warm, Balearic bass underpins a haze of chopped-up, resplendent disco
string samples and tripped-out, unintelligible vocals at the core of the track. Flurries
of saccharine, mellifluous synths soar and glide from various pockets of the track,
and deft conga rhythms fill in the gaps. More dramatic synth touches and triangle
16ths keep the track captivating to the very last moment.
‘One Jam’ is similarly dreamy, where plucked 8-bit-esque melody twinkles over
chugging bass and breathy male vocal harmonies. A triumphant feel envelops this
track, with shimmering disco hi-hats bringing the rhythm urgency and subtle strings
filtering away in the bedrock of the composition. Blissed-out, spine-tingling gear.
‘Standing Up’ completes this delightful 3-pack in wonderfully colourful fashion. The
bass is more funk-fuelled, blasts of sprightful trumpet jump out of the mix, and sweet
snatches of piano give passing glances through a filtered haze. Samples are twisted
into unrecognisable snatches of melody, and infectious percussive hits pepper the
groove msot pleasingly. Masterful.

NEAT return to Exploited with what might just be their strongest EP to date.

The title track features Swedish talent Storken, who has released on Running Back, and channels beautiful ‘80s Balearic vibes into its skippy house template. ‘80s electro bass funk leads the charge while wonky tape delays massage guitar chords and female vocal cuts into the distance. Bubbling synths subtly augment the central pillars of the track. The blissed-out breakdown makes for a stunning ambient / chillout interlude, allowing this glorious track to breathe and stretch out its arms.

‘What’s Up D?’ continues the retro theme, with diva house vocals cut up and set by turns against jaunty chime chords and a warped, nagging, pitch-bending synth hook. The ‘90s house percussion shuffles away with tinges of techno in its clap patterns and soft ride cymbals, while rubbery bass pulsates beneath. It’s a lean, punchy workout that flits between euphoria and heads-down intensity.

‘You Know What My Love’ rounds off the EP in beautiful style. The most gentle of the three tracks, its combination of stuttering vocal cut-ups, spine-tingling chord delays and succinct yet driving beat make for a dreamy experience. The breakdown is a stunning affair, where soaring pads float atop sensual melody and hypnotic FX, sunsets and lapping waves invoked by its heavenly sounds.

"Tacos & Beer, Sushi & Saki, Coffee & Pastries, Salt & Vinegar, Gin & Tonic, Cheese & Crackers! Some things just fit together perfectly.

So, when we were approached by two already existing legends from the beautiful world of House Music, Charles Levine & Fuzzy Cufflinxxx (aka Bear Who) with a collaborative project, I kind of already knew it was going to be a good fit before I even listened.

Well, as expected, it is a REALLY good fit! Both of these guys, as well as being fantastic DJs with their own hugely successful musical projects, have frequently produced interesting and original music for many years now and Do I Stay is no exception.

It’s a piping hot journey down the rabbit hole of sonic perfection.

The original mix as well as being a fantastic lyrical journey also hits like a freight train with enormous drums and an even bigger bassline. Enough promo-speak though. Click play and hear it for yourself. But be warned, sitting still through this will be extremely difficult. With remixes from Fuzzy in his WEPA beats guise and a cheeky Maintenance remix from myself on top of the astounding original, we hope you love it too."

Toy Tonics House Music from the new Kate Hudson movie! Millions of people will hear this Italo Disco House track after the new movie "Mona Lisa and the Blood Moon" will be released on 30 September. 
The song by Toy Tonics artist Rodion from Rome is part of the soundtrack for Ana Lily Amirpour's new movie.

Its a fresh take on funky house and Italian 80ies disco. No vocals just groove. Works well for dancefloors of today but also for chilled out home danceing. 
The song is part of a compilation album that will come out later on Toy Tonics (the Gomma Dancefloor Gems).

Rodion - Atala Ride

Part 5 of the various artists series is at it again with 5 tracks by 5 different producers and a mixture of feel good party time music and contemplative music. You will hear familiar Running Back names like Storken (this time together with JStaaf) refining their comic tropes (or imagine Foreigner doing house music) next to newcomers like Archie Ward. His Pizza Girl puts musical toppings on a pounding underbelly that wouldn’t be out of place in any warehouse, while Moritz and Amount dial it back a bit. Their respective tracks are gleaming with a special kind of elegant end-of-night euphoria that is hard to come by – and all the nicer if it happens. Remember: trance is a state of mind! Last but not least, Australia’s Jonus Eric delivers an IDM-leaning piece of outsider dance. Hot soup, hot swallow!

Keep off the Traxx are speeding down the third rail of UK dance heritage – a love letter to the gritty, groove-heavy house of the 90s.  

Helmed by Baker Lou and Jubi Leigh, the label draws on early progressive house, raw-edged UK garage, and the music that once echoed through London’s underground.

Rough-n-ready and proudly off the rails, the imprint delivers analogue charm and a steady nod to the past, without getting stuck in it. Visually, the label rides the line of London’s iconic Underground – with design and attitude pulled straight from the platform.

Keep off the Traxx are travelling at 33rpm and running on time. Mind the gap – the conductors don’t plan on stopping.


KOT001 - Cue It. Mix It. Blended Vol.1

Opening the debut EP is ‘Slow Down’, a high-energy A1 packed with euphoric synths, catchy vocals, and an acid line that pays homage to the golden era of early progressive house. Next up, ‘Mind the Gap’ delivers an irresistible fusion of raw, gritty house and classic UK garage, complete with chopped vocals and synth hooks that stick in your head long after its over.

‘Brain Dance’ brings a bouncy groove and a fresh return to acid, weaving melodic progressions that keep the energy flowing. Closing out the record is ‘That Noise’, a contemporary psychedelic progressive journey, layered with lush strings and immersive textures.

Slow Down, Mind the Gap, Brain Dance, That Noise


PREMIERE: Keep off the Traxx - That Noise [Keep off the Traxx Recordings]

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)
