"Exploited return with another infectious release that will 100% cause damage on dance floors worldwide. 'Late At Night’ sees a tantalizing trio consisting of Beteoko, Louie Fresco and Fritz Helder of Azari & III team up to produce a mighty fine vibe that we can’t get enough of already!

‘Late At Night’ delivers a steady rhythm that demands attention from the off, deep bass notes drive alongside warm chords taking us into sublime vocals from Fritz Helder. A bubbling melody progresses into a real atmospheric breakdown with sweeping synth and emotive strings leading us into a bouncing garage inspired full on club banger by Leftwing & Kody on the remixtip."

Italian duo Modular Project align their analogue gear and do what they do best in modernising nostalgic melodies and propelling them with punchy drums. After releases on Permanent Vacation, their own Nothing Is Real imprint, Motordiscs, hfn music and an edit for Jennifer Cardini’s Dischi Autunno, Modular Project release their debut on Exploited Club.

'It's Time' renders a vision of 90s hedonism as pupil-widening sequences bind with ecstatic pianos in a warm, rushing embrace. Thick, accurate drums give the track pace and power with claps and hats flickering overhead like strobes through fog. 

'Sex!' then rolls out a neat and classy groove as the sturdy bones of a Disco beat thump under a snake-hip bass, serrated acid line and bold, unfiltered piano chords.

'Echosphere' then dims the lights as swooning vocals (by Lattedoro) and glacial stabs are draped over snappy, broken drums. Modular manipulation drives the growth of the track as it blooms across an Intergalactic trip rounding off a varied but cogent record that speaks to the core of Exploited's ethos.

Budakid is back on Exploited with an impassioned 2-tracker. A regular at the Gardens Of Babylon events, Budakid has honed a distinctive shade of heartstring House and Indie Dance which has touched labels such as Permanent Vacation and Berlin's Watergate. Here, he delivers 2 travel tickets for 2 disparate trips.

'Infinity' is a journey in the truest sense of the word. Through an effervescent bass sequence, clever filter control and kinetic drum work, Budakid generates consistent motion from start to finish. Euphoric melodies are layered as the track gathers lucency before a wide open breakdown renders a patch of interstellar drifting. Distant snares snap overhead as the bass sequence courses into focus, reeling the listener back into the pilot's seat toward a vibrant conclusion.

'The Curse' then illuminates some gooey, 90's memories. Nostalgic chords are given buoyancy by snappy, Bicep-esque breaks and a pair of synth lines that are braided together - tumbling over one another as they carry the tracks energy. A sense of contrast and tension imbues the groove throughout another voyage that's guaranteed to soundtrack many memorable dance floor moments.'

The six piece collective claims to have its Kibbutz somewhere in the Aegean Sea. Sirens Of Lesbos aka SOL (Sun in Spanish) have a serious, noble goal: They want to spread mantras – musically uplifting and spiritually meaningful songs that inspire you to embrace life in all its forms; that make you dance in your fantasy or in the real world. Their acclaimed debut single «Long Days, Hot Nights», is not only a balearic ode to the spirit of summer, but can also be seen as the first deep breath of a game-changing meditation. Om. 


American Men’s Fashion Magazine GQ recently picked the track as one of the best 25 songs of the summer 2014. From Ibiza to beyond – it is an amazing start for this unknown act from Greece who call their sound “Fantasy Music” and dedicate this record to DJ Alfredo – master of the Balearic Beat. Watch out for these 2 new remixes by Claptone & Fred Falke and the outstanding official music video directed by Camilla Mantovani and shot by acclaimed cinematographer Marc Gomez de Moral who has photographed videos for Pet Shop Boys, El Guincho, Sonàr festival, Two Door Cinema Club and The Battles and for the latter work was nominated for best cinematography in a video at the UK Music Video Awards 2011.

Berlin's Micropacer makes his return to Exploited Club - following releases on Kendal's Ritmo Fatale, Johannes Albert's Frank Music and Cormac's Polari with 3 slices of pure, unadulterated joy. 

'Splash' kicks off, oozing with sass as an irresistible Italo bass struts along with a square edged heel. Rousing strings swell as a giddy tension bubbles towards a hairs-on-the-neck breakdown that pops to rapturous effect. Synths sparkle, while chopped vocals adorn the melody. All the while that bass maintains its swagger until the end. 

'Foreign Affairs' follows up with more early 80s flair. Here, a fervid piano riff takes the limelight as it shifts through heartstring chords, rubbing sweaty shoulders with stabs and a vocoder. Filters dip the piano as it sinks towards another jubilant drop. 

'Schöne Zeit' closes things up with more bright, spicy drums. The Disco kit kicks in all the right places, propelling another gorgeous tapestry of sound built from swirling tones and sunbeam stabs. Another breakdown unfolds with pure peak-time energy, giving way to flurry of serotonin rounding off a pack of reliable, retro bangers aimed directly under the disco ball.

In the 1970s in the UK, while stationary in his car - Gary Numan was browbeaten by a couple of blokes who peered through his window with nefarious intent. He locked the doors, sped away and evaded danger leading him to view the car as the 'tank of modern society'. Add an iconic Minimoog sequence, some Polymoog strings and Numan's robotic vocal tones and we have the cross-continental hit 'Cars' released in 1979. 

Many artists from vastly disparate pockets of the industry have covered, sampled and reworked the original with Nine Inch Nails, Kool G Rap & DJ Polo, Armand Van Helden, Judybats, Hole and Fear Factory being some examples. Now - Laroz presents a rejuvenation of ’Cars’.

With a previous release on Solomun's Dynamic Music, Laroz channels an eclectic array of influences into his music. An adroit instrumentalist with a long history of moving floors, he is perfectly placed to do the original justice. Crisp drums, marble-glazed synth string and the vocal accompaniment of Luis Fernando Chavez are the ingredients and the result is a version that packs sufficient punch for modern dance floors whilst maintaining the spirit of the original recording.

Six months after their last installment, Shir Khan and Exploited drop another hot to trot collection of disco edits. As usual, there's much to excite, beginning with the familiar guitar solos, Rhodes keys and dub disco pulse of Antilope's "Singing Ghost" rework. Death On The Balcony keep up the reverb and delay-laden dub disco theme on "Addict For Your Love", whose rubbery groove, twinkling pianos and heady vocals have been expertly rearranged to fit house dancefloors. Finally, Matpat go loop crazy on the thumping disco house cut "Only You" which sits somewhere between Rahaan and Soundstream. Excellent stuff all round.

 Featured as Belgian artist of the moment in DJ Mag Belgium Issue.
Premiered on Majestic Casual Youtube Channel with over 200 000 Plays in 1 week.

Mixmag: 'With Florida singer Marques Toliver's smooth as silk vocals weaving in and out, Compuphonic's layering of sprightly pads and deft snares make for yet another super lush house cut.'

With over 7 million plays and counting on YouTube Compuphonic's 2011 collaboration with Marques Toliver, 'Sunset' raised the bar pretty high. Since then Maxime has gone on to produce remixes for the likes of Giorgio Moroder, Gotye even and fellow Belgians The Subs (winning a Red Bull award in the process) and release two acclaimed EPs on Berlin label Exploited.

Now finally Maxime and Marques have reunited for a new EP on Exploited, 'Magical Shoes', and the results are everything we could have hoped for.

Having delivered two huge club hits in 2014 with ’Radio Atlantis’ and ’O Cypres’, Belgian star Compuphonic returns this February with his third EP for Exploited, ‘Magical Shoes’. 2 tracks of sublime House music, the ‘Magical Shoes’ EP sees Compuphonic finally reunited with the Beyoncé approved American singer Marques Toliver, whose vocals previously graced Maxime’s 2012 breakout hit ’Sunset’.

Once again this Transatlantic pairing have struck gold as Compuphonic’s distinctive brand of deeply emotional, nuanced, House Music provides the perfect setting for Marques’ plaintive vocals. With it’s distinctive Korg M1 organ and shuffling beats ‘Magical Shoes’ instantly brings to mind legendary ‘90s New York clubs like The Sound Factory but thanks to Compuphonic’s production skills it goes well beyond that of simple period pastiche and sounds utterly fresh for 2015, a bonafide club hit that is already peppering the sets of DJs such as Laurent Garnier, Tensnake and The Magician.

As the title suggests the EP’s 2nd track ‘The Sun Does Rise’ is the natural successor to the duo’s previous outing. As deep as the Pacific Ocean this is a trance inducing hymn to hope, music designed to elevate the soul as much as move the body and bring some much needed warmth back to clubland. Expect to hear this played everywhere and anywhere this year where the party goes through the night and the first morning light breaks over the dancefloor.

Recorded in the famous Vantage Point Studios in Antwerp - dEUS’s own recording studio, a special, inspiring moment for Maxime, a lifelong fan of the band - the ‘Magical Shoes’ EP cements his position as one of Europe’s most talented producers and with remixes to come soon on Carl Craig’s Planet E and more original material on Exploited, the future is looking bright for Compuphonic.

SevenDoors is a new producer from the UK. When we heard his first demo tracks we directly signed them. VOID has been working in our sets like magic. FORGET YOU is an updated rework of VI by MUSUMECI (with friendly permission from the artist) which has become a secret weapon for Solomun. Both tracks were world premiered by Pete Tong at BBC Radio 1. With an upcoming record on Diynamic, a remix for Pete Tongs label FFRR and plenty of stuff in the pipeline you will surely hear much more from SevenDoors in the future.
'Introspective, brooding yet bristling with possibility , ‘Void’ leads you into a dreamscape with a four note melody that ripples and cascades like a waterfall over large. ‘Forget You’ is a steroid pumped, arpeggiated excursion with sheared metal incidentals and a hi-nrg disco pulse. It’s an upstanding, hands
raising, stellar end of the night track. Exemplary work.' (DMC World Magazine)

Onsra - Funky Town | Exploited

Shir Khan and the illusive Exploited crew reveal the first compilation of the cultishly adored Black Jukebox series. It includes the sunniest grooves you’ve heard this year. ’Shir Khan Presents Black Jukebox Disco Jam 01’ is a soundsystem-ready disco-house jam which tickles the subwoofers beautifully and seems purpose built for eyes-wide-shut Summer terrace play in big outdoor spaces. Black Jukebox is traversing the wide spectrum of ‘dancefloor’ music.  There’s much to excite: All four tracks are built for rooftop parties with the deep V crew.
From slo-mo housed up boogie-soul, to a loft-party future classic, to a feel-good, sun-blushed, druggy, late night electric jam, to main room filtered disco house and subbass-bugged R&B…it’s all there.  It’s no wonder the Black Jukebox Vinyl series became buy-on-sight and quick to disappear. Launched in late 2011 by Shir Khan, Black Jukebox was mainly focussed on Vinyl Releases. 13 Releases later, this is the first compilation which sums up some of the best moments and features 3 tracks that were digitally never available before. 
Black Jukebox Releases have put a smile on the face of various tastemakers such as Wolf&Lamb, Soul Clap, Tim Sweeney, Optimo, Axel Boman, Gerd Janson, Disclosure, Danny Krivit, Ewan Pearson, David August, Jesse Rose, Tiefschwarz, Matthew Dear, A-Trak, Huxley, Oliver $, Wareika, RubnTug, ND Baumecker, Acid Pauli, James Friedman, Mano Le Tough, Solomun, H.O.S.H., Daniel Bortz, Dyed Soundorom, Erol Alkan, Totally Enormous Extinct Dinosaurs, Deetron, Skream, Seth Troxler, Re.You, Keinemusik, Noir, Miss Kittin, Joakim, Munk, DJ Yoda, Hot Since 82, Pete Tong, Claptone, Karmon, Azari & III, Friendly Fires, Jazzanova, Drop Out Orchestra, El Txef, Maya Jane Coles, Till Von Sein, The Rapture, Peter Kruder, Arthur Baker, Miguel Campbell, Phil Weeks, Lee Foss, Maxxi Soundsystem, Luke Solomon, Mark Farina, Terranova, Pen Pearce, Acid Washed.

DMC Review:
" ‘Guilty’ captures you in time and space as you survey its richly woven fabric in the sunlight, moved by the blend of beautiful colours and textures that thrill to the touch. It’s an master stroke with arpeggiated exotic keys, synth washes, definite chords and Kraftwerk-esque Tour de France cycle chain ripples just for fun. ‘Like Feathers’ is a delicate techno synth opus with crystal bell tones, percolating riffs, layered white and pink noise and suspiciously sexual squelches. Its infused with a smoky male vocal and intense, intimmate lyrics which turns it gently on its own crystal carousel. Beauty and synth deep."

'Greed brings his vast talent to Shir Khan’s Exploited Records for the first time on “Guilty,” an utterly sublime two-tracker. We’re thrilled to world premiere the techy title track brandishing an emotive groove that subtly coaxes you into a state of somber euphoria.
“I made this track — or rather the sketch for this track — on a long train ride which took me almost through all of Germany on a south to north route from one gig to another,” he tells us. ”The time flew by — even though it was an almost seven-hour trip. I was just nodding my head and got caught in one of those special moments that I even forgot to pay for my coffee in the train restaurant. That’s why it’s called ‘Guilty.'”

LIKE FEATHERS premiered by KALTBLUT MAGAZINE:
(http://www.kaltblut-magazine.com/premiere-douglas-greed-like-feathers-feat-kuss/)

Catz N Dogs: "This EP is really nice."
Baikal: "Cute."
Ewan Pearson: "Very pretty indeed."
Russel Yallop: "Always great from Mr. Greed."
DJMag: "Guilty of really liking Guilty."
Acid Pauli: "Beautifull."
Droog: "Unexpectedly melodic turn for Douglas Greed on Guilty...it definitely works, like it. Will come handy at rave in a desert somewhere."

Excited to have Douglas Greed - from the Freude Am Tanzen Crew (next to Mathias Kaden, Robag Wruhme, Krause Duo) - with a guest release on our label.
In the past he has released tons of singles and remixes and 2 albums (1 on Freude Am Tanzen in 2011 and 1 on Bpitch in 2014). 
Douglas Greed is known for his melancholic, organic, emo techno tracks. Surrounded by hills and forests, crossed by a river, far from the extravagances of Berlin and mostly inhabited by students, Jena is the artistic home of Douglas Greed’s music. 
His versatile DJ skills cover every mood in a heavy weekend of partying. His musical output covers a broad stylistic range while retaining its own clear fingerprint and often bypassing the conventions of purely functional club music.
Douglas Greed has also been spreading more bass-heavy vibes for many years in his live set-up with Fabian Kuss on vocals (who is also featured on ’Like Feathers’) and Michael Nagler on drums.
Douglas Greed - ‘Guilty’ will be out February 15th on Exploited. 2016 will also see a new track from him on a compilation by Recondite.

The wildly creative posse from Sirens Of Lesbos return with ’Essays Volume 02' - continuing their EP series tailored exclusively for the dancefloor. «The Great Rift» is a musical overflight of the Great Rift – the so called cradle of mankind in the east of Africa. Imagine yourself sitting in a solar-powered, translucent spacecraft, hovering from the highlands of Eritrea to the North of Mozambique. Track two, «Funky Lips Of Timbuktu», is a musical kaleidoscope that melts a beat that is as dry as the Mali desert and funky Sufi lip-singing.

We couldn’t resist to release this soulful boogie disco house joint GOLDEN GIRLS from Tigerskin & Jack Jenson featuring vocals from south african rising star Lazarusman.

BOOM!

The both producers about their session: „We were looking  for inspiration by listening to various bassline stems freshly recorded the week before. And we checked the secret studio archive which includes the recordings of almost 30 years of Tigerskins work. Looking for hidden treasures in hundreds of recordings we stumbled across a simple and unreleased drum arrangement.

Just for fun we added one of our basslines to it and recorded a bunch of melodies with some of the old Moogs. You know you're working on 'one of those songs' when each member delivers exactly the ingredient that the others were thinking of when working on their part. When Lazarusman sent the vocals and as we listened the first time to the demo version of what would become ‚Golden Girls' we both looked at each other and agreed that this might be our best work so far.“

First feedback:
Jamie Jones: Sounds cool.
Tanner Ross: Really feeling Golden Girls!
El Txef: Alex is the fucking master.
Francesca Lombardo: Very lovely release.
Tensnake: Nice.
Acid Pauli: :)
Till Von Sein: That bassline baby.
Hyenah: Dope EP. Can’t wait to play it out loud.

Thomas Von Party: Nice groove.

JOYCE MUNIZ’S LATEST SINGLE ‘SLEEPLESS’ GETS REMIXES FROM DJ T, GERMAN BRIGANTE AND RUSS YALLOP.

Joyce Muniz unveils details of a remix EP of her latest offering on the techy Wehbba co-production Sleepless taken from her 11-track debut album ‘Made In Vienna’.

DJ T Remix Premiere in Magnetic Magazine:
http://www.magneticmag.com/2016/09/exclusive-premiere-joyce-muniz-sleepless-dj-t-remix-exploited-records/

'DJ T takes away most of the vocal but leaves in the reverb in this stellar rework.
Joyce Muniz' anthemic "Sleepless" has been bouncing around the underground DJ circuit for around two years now, but the tune has shown no sign of stopping its reign over house sets across the world. Exploited Recordings has put together a new remix package to update the tune for today's dance floors - including stellar takes from German Brigante and Russ Yallop - and Magnetic Magazine is proud to exclusively premiere DJ T's own take on the track.
This DJ T remix retains the blissed-out atmospherics of the original, engaging them underneath a throttling bass line and rolling hits for an ecstatic breakdown. While the original track is led by Angelique Bianca's vocal, DJ T whittles it down, making for a fantastic late-night gem around her distant echo.'

Claptone - Before I Lose My Mind feat. Say Yes Dog | Exploited

Berliner-based electronica live act GHEIST put forth two attention-grabbing tracks in their third release for Exploited, enlisting the aid of fellow producer and singer-songwriter Bayker on vocals.

Eponymous track Salvation kicks off proceedings, showcasing a deep tech exploration with late night dancefloor appeal. The original exposes a gradually unfolding piece, boasting a clean cut rhythm section and a methodical, straightforward structure centered around minor chords. 
Last Night In Paris reveals a dark brooding arrangement, as reflective vocals add a layer of mystery to the foundation of pensive pads and warped synths. What ensues is a contemplative atmosphere, that is mesmerizing as it is dance-inducing. 
Venlo is a nice last minute bonus addition strictly aimed for the dancefloor.

GHEIST kickstarted their young career last year and since then have grabbed attention from DJs and Media all over the place which led into a busy touring schedule including upcoming gigs at Razzmatazz Barcelona, Watergate Berlin, Sonne Mond Sterne Festival and many more club and festival appearances.
Very strong beginning for one of our new acts on the label Exploited.

Shir Khan's back with his trusty team of terrace-friendly edit specialists, alchemy masters of turning the raw ore of disco's past into soundsystem ready house bangers for the outdoor summer parties! James Jackson & Siege are first to step up to the cauldron, throwing in one of the catchiest coastal disco tracks ever into the pot, adding some woodblock (yes!) and applying some gentle low pass filter which teases in the track beautifully. Tiptoes reworks some low slung jazz funk business into a midtempo roller, perfect for that lazy walk to the bar while you top up your margarita or daiquiri, stopping off for a chat with some sexy looking ladies / gents on the way.... Illyus & Barrientos takes us firmly through to late night action on "Bare Fruits" - instantly transporting us to some Iberian sweatbox where the party never stops; and "You Says" which takes us through back into the sunrise and into the next day of holiday partying. Remember, the fun never stops when Shir Khan's in town.  
Do yourself a favor and pick it up before this limited collector’s item sells out. Highly recommended.

Piece Of Soul

Bas Roos & Guy Steve - Piece Of Soul | Exploited

True dedication is difficult to find these days, as is motivation when digital media has overthrown old school methods, which makes running a label an even more sinuous mission. Despite a wealth of hurdles that increasingly come with the territory, this hasn’t put an end to people’s desire to push out their own imprints. Concurrently, the same digital revolution that has thrown off the industry has also made it possible for many projects to come into the spotlight, and many of these have made a spectacular difference. Whether it’s smaller side projects of well known artists, serving up quirkier, more experimental tracks, enabling further sonic exploration, or newborn collectives doling out fresh takes on contemporary sound, 2017 has been a prolific year for record labels.
But it’s not just the approach related to creating and promoting labels that has shifted recently. In recent times, the way we make and consume music has transformed as well. A label’s role has changed into that of a full on curator, influencing current musical trends based on their selection of outputs. But it’s not a status that is easily achieved, by all means.
Moving at its own pace, ten years in the world of dance music come as a century in real life, as dancefloor trends fluctuate. In such a surrounding, creating timeless pieces is essential when maintaining a high calibre establishment. But thanks to platforms such as Soundcloud or the ever-pervasive social media channels, it’s easy to showcase tracks and kick off labels without needing the once coveted record deal. Nevertheless, record labels serve as beacons in a world where we’re inundated by more and more content.
More than just a release platform, labels are indispensable partners in artists’ careers as the one to curate only the best music, accompany it with according designs, as well as bringing in new marketing ideas or even music videos. Shir Khan’s Exploited label has been a true example of such a label, hand-picking new producers to showcase, nurturing them from early beginnings into popular household names.

Shir Khan’s strong ear for talent has seen him responsible for launching the careers of Claptone, Adana Twins, Joyce Muniz through their releases on Exploited, the label also providing a platform for established remixers and artists such as Siriusmo, Freeform Five, Munk, Modeselektor, John Tejada, Phil Weeks, Cosmin TRG, Locked Groove, Deetron, Detroit Swindle, Acid Pauli, Ralph Lawson...
Now the label Exploited celebrates ten years of releasing amazing eclectic club music with some of the best tracks from its catalogue (from 2007 until 2017).

Dutch prodigy Budakid returns to Exploited for his third mesmerising EP on the label, with two fresh new opuses for your delectation. 

The End is one of his typically cinematic tracks, reminiscent of 90s melodic breakbeat types Hybrid. Hovering, Reese-toned bass looms subtly over intricate, light broken beats and gently enveloping string progressions. Crisp and spacious, the arrangement is honed to perfection. Muted, gated stabs echo the ghost of 90s trance in the breakdown, fusing beautifully with the breaks when the beat drops back in. Soft cymbal rides splash across the surface as the elements fuse back together for a restrained crescendo. Perfect for the afterhours or a spot of deep meditation.

Linguistic sees Budakid in more of a deep house / melodic techno mood. Subtle synth licks waft across the stereo field as live percussion forms a groove and wildlife sounds create a heady atmosphere deep in the distance. A plodding groovy bassline drives its way into the foreground, while minimialist layers of electronics build the mood. The brain-twisting breakdown makes more great use of noise gating as a dizzying lead soars and pulses. Its a great piece of work that centres more on mood and texture than melody, and in doing so recalls classic progressive house sounds.

The mystical sounds of the masked man known as AIWASKA has found much acclaim with his glorious ‘Medicine’ release on Exploited Ghetto. Fans of the track emerged far and wide. Eelke Kleiijn creates a more urgent feel than that of the original. He takes everything that’s great about ‘Medicine’ and gives it just the right amount of boost to create a more intense dancefloor moment. The chugging, arpeggiated bass groove still drives the track, but in a more relentless fashion. The track builds through slow-burning modulation, with a driving percussion success that features off-kilter snare hits and chunky tom thumps. As the track reaches its climax, a dizzying array of sirens, rising FX and white noise tones elevate it into an explosive flurry of sound, sending shivers up the spine. It’s quite spectacular.
The secretive AIWASKA project has been receiving big support from the Burning Man community, and Damian Lazarus recently released one of his tracks through his scene-leading Crosstown Rebels imprint. There’s much more to come from this masked man. Kleijn also has his links to Burning Man, having composed the track ‘1,000 Lights’ as part of a 670 drone art piece at Burning Man 2018 in memory of festival founder, Larry Harvey.

Early feedback coming in from Black Coffee, Hyenah, AME, Re.You...

'Alkebulan' by Ant LaRock & Roland Clark gets the remix treatment from David Mayer. David Mayer’s remix takes inspiration from the African vocal and injects it into the rhythm section, with off-beat snare hits driving the track forward as shakers stutter away. A huge, soaring breakdown is decked out with synth beauty that spills over into the drop but is wisely restrained from anything too overblown. Well-positioned FX whirrs and spins around your head while the lead riff pans around in similarly dizzying fashion.
Todd Terry protégé Ant LaRock has provided some gems for Exploited previously in the form of ‘Grown Ups’ and ‘When’, and this latest effort with house legend Roland Clark on vocals could be his strongest effort to date.

Early Feedback:
Black Coffee: Thanks.
Hyenah: Great work by Mr. Mayer as expected.

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!
Mixmag: The original is so strong and then the Alan Dixon mix takes it to my youth and I am wearing a shell suit at the roller disco.
Danny Howard/BBC Radio 1: I like the Alan Dixon remix

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.

'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)
