We’re proud to present the seventh release on flurt. — Etruscan Vase EP [FLRT007] — a five-track collection from Essex producer Josh Smith, featuring refined reworks from Nath. and Cora M.

The three originals take listeners on a noir-inspired journey through organic textures, deconstructed percussion, and evocative vocal samples drawn from vintage cinema. Dubby, intricate, and richly detailed, each track carves its own space while maintaining a cohesive, immersive atmosphere.

The remixes offer fresh perspectives on Josh’s work: Nath. transforms Etruscan Vase into a textural, rhythmically rich reinterpretation, while Cora M reimagines Placebo with analog warmth, subtle depth, and hypnotic layers. Together, they complement the EP’s moody, immersive vibe beautifully.

Etruscan Vase EP continues to explore forward-thinking minimal, marrying careful detail with emotive energy.

Early support from Barac, Crihan, Liro, Primărie, Sakdat, Sublee, Vid, Vlad Arapasu and more.

PREMIERE: Josh Smith - Room 317 [FLRT007]

Sense Traxx, originally established as a club brand in 2012, has continued to grow and expand its reach both across the UK and internationally over the past few years, leading to the launch of its associated label in March 2016. The second release on London’s new Sense Traxx imprint come from Tom Jay, whose ‘Jack The Groove EP’ featuring remixes from Jhonsson and Mattei & Omich.  With previous releases on Underground Source Records and Chapeau Music, Jay grew up on the seminal sounds of DJ Pierre, Adonis, Larry Heard and Marshall Jefferson, and these early acid and Chicago house influences clearly shine through in his own productions.

We premiere the Lead track ‘Jack The Groove’ which is a bumpin’, percussion-heavy house cut featuring elegant chords and a patiently bubbling bass groove, easily holding its own against classic cuts from the golden 90’s ear of US house, while Jhonsson’s remix ramps up the energy levels with urgent vocal stabs and frenetic breakdowns.

Mystery surrounds the identity of production combo Claptone. Perhaps it doesn't matter... 
Their first EP "She Loves You" was a mix of sharply floor focused tech-house, deep house and disco blends. Currently No. 4 in the German Club Charts and liked by key-players such as Tensnake, Julio Bashmore, Eats Everything, A-Trak, Matthew Dear and Tim Sweeney - we had to make a quick follow-up. 
Here it is: CREAM...not only for lovers of 90ies Rapmusic.

Claptone: Cream (Preview) | Exploited

Total dedication to and a constant focus on music, caring for and respectful of others. These are the attributes best to describe Kellerkinds type. Nothing could be more beautiful than to realize a project in total harmony. 
It’s been a little over four years since Kellerkind released his first song to the public ear. Sirion Records gladly offered him the platform to do so then and achieved the project “Bergluft” together, which received massive credits worldwide. This was the kick-off to his music career and was followed by many releases on renowned labels such as Stil Vor Talent, Flash Rec. or Hive Audio. Nevertheless he remained active with Sirion Records as well through remixes for other projects or also with his own vinyl release “Altro Mondo”. 
The possibility to tell an extended story is the appeal of making an album for Kellerkind. This is his chance to introduce tracks that aren’t mainly focused on being „dance floor“ music. He integrates this quite aptly and constructively into the album. The rather simple track titles represent moving moments in his musical development. 
Starting off with a quite jazzy number he makes full circle back to his roots in disco on the dance floor. As the title of the main track says „Disco on the Dancefloor“ is ideally suited fort he dance floor with is groovy bass and poignant disco stabs, ready to thrill the masses. The rhythm and atmosphere of this song make summer approach just a little quicker. 
Continuing with „It’s Like“ – a rather raw number, shaped by its driving bass line, which takes the buildup of the album further and with its compelling vocals manages to contrast from classic deep- tech house songs. Kellerkind cranks it up with „Triple Distilled“  - organs, trumpets, flutes and synchs. A truly musical piece, destined to make you dance. „It’s 2AM“ keeps that pace of movement. The catchy voices add that something special to the song. „Backflash“ is next – this track also appeared on Kellerkinds recently released EP on Stil Vor Talent. Mighty sounds, staged dramatically – a perfect transition to „Play it Loud“. Kellerkind relies entirely on melodic bass line at the center of this track and its strong sub bass to pull you in. The precisely placed, bizarre vocal cuts maintain the songs diversity and tension. This is one not to be missed on the dance floor. Concluding the Album shouldn’t get your heart pumping, but rather melting into deeper, quieter tracks in which the artist takes us. The final track, the perfect ending to the album, is an incredibly melancholic chord sequence added to a cozy beat. Truly a successful, exciting, well told story. 
With their variations, the bonus tracks are an excellent addition to Kellerkinds signature style. None lesser than Channel X (Stil vor Talent), Animal Trainer (Stil vor Talent) and Jon Donson (Sirion Records) did the honors.

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)
