Here is a snapshot of 14 Exploited tracks from 2021.

Dutch producer Budakid delivers a spellbinding, slow-burning slice of melodic-tinged house music with RINGO BINGO. T.U.R.F. throw in the funk-fuelled, finger-lickin WHATCHA GONNA DO. Alan Dixon ditches the soulful feel of TAKEN ALL THIS TIME by James Curd for an acid/electro/Italo fusion on his bold remix. Joyce Muniz creates a dynamic, charismatic slice of dance gold with just a sprinkling of pop sensibility in the form of CRYSTALLINE. French duo O.N.O rock the Italo disco vibe with IN SPEKZION. 
Phunkadelica opt for an Italo disco direction with an epic piano breakdown on their 1000 YEARS Remix for James Curd. Swedish artist NEAT take you on a hypnotic ride through subtle FX touches, robotic vocal snatches in AMBIENTE FASHION. Benjamin Fröhlich goes for a driving breakbeat vibe and oaring atmospherics on his remix for Budakid’s RINGO BINGO. Bordering the lines between slinky nu disco and pumping house, O.N.O’s DON’T YOU KNOW features sublime, breathy vocals from fellow Parisian newcomer, Praa. Enduro Disco provides a gently euphoric, deep roller on FOREVER. Swaying synth arpeggios and unhurried beat recalling some of Soulwax’s more pared back material can be heard in Stefano Ritteri’s & Mytron’s DONNA. Theus Mago zeroes in on the acid content, gurgling 303s oscillating over stuttering bass throbs and swaggering half-time breakbeat to chilling effect on his SAY LESS, NOT MORE Remix for James Curd. Holger Zilske retains the deep vibe of DEEP IN MY HEART by Enduro Disco but laces it with a dubby feel and more of a taut inflexion in its percussive groove. LET’S SHAKE by Phonk D closes the compilation with serious funk intent, mixing a thumping MJ-esque bassline with some of that late ‘70s / early ‘80s synth magic. All in all this is a great eclectic dance compilation.

Shir Khan Presents Welt Am Draht 2021 I Exploited

The prominent Swedish duo of Elfenberg(@elfenberg) returns to the label after featuring with the wicked “Kebabsyra”on Rotten Citizens (@rotten-city-records) Compilation Vol.4. They've recently released music on labels such as Les Yeux Orange, Feines Tier and Hard Fist. The return to Rotten City will see the light of the long awaited “Elfenboogie EP”, containing three powerful peak time tracks with all the flavors they like: Acid, Disco and Tribal vibes.
“Vasta La Hista” is a clear example of a club bomb. Direct, raw, and psychedelic. 100% effective but non generic!

“Acid Cocoon’” dig into the darker vibes with a spooky and sexy female voice in a “Post-Electroclash” exercise.
With “Elfenboogie” they show us again their favorite elements; Percussion, drive, a soulful vocal and some random weirdness to top it off. "Let's do the Elfenboogie", "Come n Elfenboogie with us”, they always joked around with the term, that now is the title track on this very EP.

The release is complemented with a remix from Julian Sanza & Alvaro Cabana Remix. Both DJs residents at Kaputt Club (Bogotá) joining forces again to turn the Classic Disco vibe of “Elfenboogie” into a trippy and cosmic interpretation.

The SXDNS Takeover series, promoted by the rising & charming German platform Sexy Dinosaur From Outer Space, has it beginning with a stalwart release on the British powerhouse Nein Records. Alex Aguayo, From Beyond, Stockholm Syndrome and Tronik Youth brought their characteristic sonorities to the compilation through four stunning originals.

Mexican superstar Alex Aguayo opens the VA with “Predictable”, a Cosmic Disco-infused masterpiece full of atmospheric arpeggios and trippy synth layers. Following comes British “everybody’s darling” producer From Beyond and his acid & menacing slow-mo cut “Vortexion”. Hailing from Australia, prolific Stockholm Syndrome brings the game to a hazier and mistier level with “Acsilado” and its proper Dark Disco aura. The takeover comes to an end with a literary contribution by the label owner himself: Tronik Youth’s “Jubjub”, like Lewis Carroll’s fictional character, is dangerous and eerie with the difference of being extremely groovy.

INCOMING :  Moo Moonster - Space Phantasy (Marvin & Guy Remix) #YaHalaYaHala 
Release date : 2022-04-22
Buy : https://www.beatport.com/release/space-phantasy-b-side/3692938

Moo Moonster steps boldly into 2022 with a powerful new release on Ya Hala Ya Hala imprint. The madrileños artist carves out a new era for his music, his debut 'Consort Of Zeus' EP on Ya Hala Ya Hala back in 2021 has continued to bewitch all who encounter it since its release. Space Phantasy EP has four delectable dancefloor cuts destined to bring the heat.

‘Space Phantasy’ is a journey to atone for demons to become the best version of yourself, even if everything around you is crumbling at your feet. It wasn't originally intended as a dancefloor song. I have tried to be as organic and minimalistic as possible in its production.

‘This Is The Time’ was the beginning of a change in both my sound and my life. I was listening to a lot of acid & Chicago, house, and in the end, the idea was to bring those influences and that classic sound to the present in a low bpm track, but with a very particular dancefloor pressure. With this track, I wanted to remind myself that it's always a good time to start from scratch and abandon a sad self, which only subtracts from your potential.

TAU label heads Adana Twins brings the tempo up a notch with a primed late-night, sweaty phat remix, huge hoover bass tones interject racing percussion, and main vocals samples for a futuristic blend of driving sonics. The duo shows off a distinct ability for carving in breaks into their tracks. Keeping things Techno-ish and consistent while adding touches of their breadth of influences. 

Life & Death regulars Marvin & Guy gives the reworking a hazy and trippy desert, bringing a dreamlike feel while keeping things dancefloor-friendly.
The remix begins in the same spirit and captures the blissful allusions of its name Space Phantasy, but its initial gentility belies the deep intensity to come. Floating pads glow with celestial ambiance, melodies, topped with a vocoded vocal hook.

INCOMING : Rigopolar - Melting Moon -(Original Mix) #TOURDEINFINITE
Buy : https://rigopolar.bandcamp.com/album/inversus-totalis
Release date : 2022-04-30

Manuel Castaneda a.k.a. Rigopolar is now based in Miami. He mixes up Italo, disco, techno and wave music on labels like Duro, Aeon, Nazca and Tom Tom Disco. He is a mainstay of the dark disco scene and always takes dance floors on a trip through space and time with his rough-edged but majestically melodic sounds. His new label will be a place for his most comprehensive musical statements yet, and the first offering is an instant classic of the genre.
 
Opener 'Purple Drive' is an expansive astral disco cut with sweeping guitar riffs and dazzling disco-fried synth work. It's chuggy and packed with stylish reverb and a well-treated vocal. Next is the twinkling 'Inversus Totalis,' which melts swaggering and dubbed out drums with twitchy synths into a sleek and far-sighted dance floor destroyer in the mold of ALFOS. The brilliant 'Melting Moon' is another dark disco gem that is quick to lock you in with its tinny percussion and rugged arps. They're backed with coarse hits and a pulsing bassline that forever forges forwards through the stars. 'Saturnia' closes down with mind-melting synth loops and prickly hits. The drums are firmly rooted, while splashy cymbals and vocoder vocals add that deep space feel.
 
A second EP is already in the works for later in the year and is sure to confirm this is an essential new label for dark disco heads.

Exclusive Cowboy Rhythmbox - 6AM Cowboy (Cowboy Rhythmbox Deviation Variation)

British “outsider-electronic duo“ Cowboy Rhythmbox return to Erol Alkan's Phantasy Sound with a  none-existing musical approach up to date from the cowboys Nathan Gregory Wilkins and Richard X themselves. As Detroit producer Sharif Laffrey took on remix duties for CR's 6AM Nathan and Richard remixed the remix of the track, expressing their appreciation of Sharif's work. The result of the remix remix, simply called Deviation Variation, falls into the category creative remarkableness. A lush yet bouncey bass line is equipped with sharp reverbing chords and blurry synths while partly implemented filter hi-hat rides and mono-alternating vocal-snippets are swaying from left to right. The remix reaches musical exellence once the disorted and echoing chord sequence makes its appearance adding a warm vitalness to the wild west Detroit-shooting.

Cowboy Rhythmbox's EP 6AM Cowboy is released on Phantasy Sound on April 10th, 2020.

Early feedback coming in from Terr, Seth Troxler, Kim Ann Foxman, Chloe, Catz N Dogz, Adana Twins, Skatebård, Anja Schneider, Erol Alkan, Tiga, Marco Passarani, Digitalism, AME, Alinka, Eli Escobar…

Joyce Muniz is back with the perfect follow-up to the taut electro of her ‘Glass Mistress’ release on PETS, this time back on her regular home of Exploited.
Following on from last year’s ‘Microdosing’ on the same label, she has once again excelled in creating a dynamic, charismatic slice of dance gold with just a sprinkling of pop sensibility.
‘Crystalline’ has a slightly more intense feel than its predecessor, with a snarling bass arpeggio swelling in teasing fashion over the crisp drums. A minimalist, clipped synth arpeggio provides a complimentary layer, with a woozy male vocal providing the rest of the required texture. A sassy, rapped, hip-house refrain is contrasted with airy looped harmonies which haunt the track in sensual fashion. Tense pads provide more drama and complete the retro-future feel.
Alt-disco legends In Flagranti provide a subtle rework, keeping the melodies intact but remoulding them with somewhat gentler textures and a more chugging tempo. More sensual and more laconically hypnotic with its tumbling conga rhyhtms and warm analog synths, it’s a very necessary addition to the package.

Crystalline

Joyce Muniz - Crystalline I Exploited

Buy / Stream: https://orcd.co/ringobingo

The masterful Budakid is back on Exploited with two beautiful tracks.
A spellbinding, slow-burning slice of melodic-tinged house music, ‘Ringo Bingo’ has shades of Todd Terje in its spacious arrangement, rolling groove and gorgeous riffage. An electro arpeggio percolates over the throbbing bass tones; heavily reverbed percussive hits create atmosphere; and nagging piano chords build a tense melodic backbone. The cute lead melody is at once euphoric and melancholy, and a stunning synth solo in the mid-section adds some dazzling freestyle energy that really opens the track.

‘’Ringo Bingo’ is for me a travel between fusion, club and a glimpse of electronic jazz” says the man behind the track. “I n the break I asked an old friend of mine — Rolf van de Sande, with whom I used to play in a band — to come up with a jazzy and extraordinary solo. He totally nailed it. I wrote the arrangement in the end around the solo, and let the groove take over the focus at the climax to get more of a dance feel to it. This is one of the tracks that was a pain in the ass to finish and mix because it was full of harmonies and melodies. But I thought "If Snarky Puppy can do it, I can try to do it..."

‘Aku Aku’ goes deeper still, with lush strings decking out a light arrangement where shuffling percussion and dreamy, crystalline chime melodies flit across the surface. The chimes are seamlessly bolstered by live bass guitar, doubling the melody up a treat, with splashes of percussive texture here and there bringing a little extra spice. A few piano chords later on are all that are needed to complete this sublime track.

"Aku Aku" is more of a dubby groove based track where I tried to use only a few elements. A hallucinogenic melody that's very repetitive, but easy on the ear due to its polyrhythm and harmony. Once a friend listened to it and said "Kevin, this sounds like an old 00's game". I totally agreed, so one of my favourite game characters was an inspiration for the name.”

Early Feedback:
DJ Mag France: Ringo Bingo is a nice mixture of sounds.
5Mag: He will appear in the next issue of 5Mag.
Dave Aju: Love the texture and 6/8 line in Aku Aku, would be dope to hear it over some alt rhythms too, nice one!

"In 2020 we had a lot of time on our hands, which we used to discover and explore the sounds that give us the most energy, resulting in these tunes that actually took us to our French house roots that ignited the fire for us back in the day. Seems like that fire is still burning! "
That’s how T.U.R.F. describe the origin of their latest EP for Exploited, the funk-fuelled, finger-lickin’ ‘Whatcha Gonna Do’. And going back to the source for inspiration has proved a masterstroke, with the duo cooking up two super-groovy tracks that will be in heavy rotation for months to come.
‘Whatcha Gonna Do’ works its way around an Afrobeat flavoured guitar and bass groove, with chattering tribal percussion tumbling over a classic house beat. Vocal chants add another layer of swing, with a filtered breakdown taking us right back to that French touch era and an irresistible Santana-esque, guitar solo weaving in and out of the foreground thereafter. The groove is thick and relentless and will keep you bopping throughout. Close your eyes and you could be on the dancefloor at Djoon in Paris in the early 2000s...
The flip ‘Real Heads Know The Deal’ is a more urgent, insistent affair. Drawing on the same DNA as the title track, the pace is upped and the swing pushed further into shoulder-wiggling slinkiness. At its core: another infectious guitar loop. Sprinkled on top: a funked-up vocal cut-up. The bass is warm and curvy, and blasts of feel-good horns are woven in at just the right moments. Hypnotic disco house at its very finest.

Quirky French duo O.N.O have been hard at work this year, making the most of the forced confinement by cooking up some of their most sophisticated work yet.
‘Don’t You Know Feat. Praa’ is a powerful, triumphant track that will lift the spirits. Bordering the lines between slinky nu disco and pumping house, it features sublime, breathy vocals from fellow Parisian newcomer, Praa. Her warm tones glide over a beautiful melange of off-beat disco bass, funked-up synth touches and moody atmospheric touches, all set to a snappy, tight beat. A heady breakdown and massive snare roll build-up kick the track into overdrive, and the mixture of ‘80s mood and driving modern day energy is a truly sumptuous mix.
‘In Spekzion’ rocks an Italo disco vibe in some style, convincingly recreating the muscular vibe of the era. A stuttering, whooping chopped-up vocal loop draws us in, a slowly phasing synth ‘n’ bass arpeggio cutting in sharply as the light beat and gated ‘80s snares explode into life. A swirling, muted synth snarls; another taps out an optimistic melody. Huge snare hits launch us out of the short breakdown, propelling us back towards that deliciously camp and retro vocal hook that recalls the days of primitive samplers with short sample times. The duo say that “the track was inspired by a host of anxiety-inducing information delivered in recent months, a total letting go of reality, a seizure of power over what surrounds us, a positive rebellion, a burst of oxygen.”
Together, these two tracks form a very necessary palette cleanser that will bring you energy and positivity right when you need them most.

Early feedback in by Catz N Dogz, Perel, Terr, Osunlade, Mixmag, Danny Howard/BBC Radio 1, Claptone, Art Of Tones, Alinka...

The title track from prolific producer James Curd’s debut album ‘Taking All This Time’ is a marker of the quality of the 14-track collection, and one of the new tracks set amongst some of his finest moments to date.
A looping jazz-funk b-line and key sample cut pumps round and round as splashy hi-hats and tense synth whirrs build the mood, before the sweet male vocal refrain is unleashed over a pleasingly mellow melodic progression. The vocal by Shyam P reveals itself more, laying on a honeyed R&B / soul feel to the proceedings before we’re dropped back into that relentless disco groove. Snatches of biting electric pianos intersperse the rhythm, and drawn out sax samples provides a moment of juxtaposition in the break. The overall feel is that of a melancholy summer jam that bridges the gap between multiple genres, concisely reflecting Curd’s tastes in the process.
Alan Dixon (Running Back) ditches the soulful feel for an acid/electro/Italo fusion on his bold remix, setting bubbling acid lines against early '90s piano chords that joyously take centre stage midway through the track.

Early feedback:
Catz N Dogz: Such a good song.
Perel: Thank you!
Terr: Beautiful work of all! Alan Dixon for my sets!
Osunlade: Love this!

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)
