São Paulo based Renato Cohen adds to an expansive back catalogue with a 2-hit combo on Exploited Club. Previous releases have come via Pets Recordings, Defected, Future Disco and as well as a recent link up with Exploited regular Joyce Muniz for Permanent Vacation.

'Good Times' sparks things up with bright, muscular drums that pave the way for a rasping bass line - a killer DJ tool. Percussion and FX take the limelight while a syncopated kick / bass bounce off each other. Raw energy is spat out while snares clash and vocals march along with an intensity that doesn't let up. The potency of the ingredients is what carries the track as it confidently smacks of a raw simplicity that fans of Strip Steve will recall. 

'Rain Dance' is a brash and stroppy record that channels the energy of hay-day blog-House. Kicks, snares and bass are given a serrated edge as their wielded with Justice, Vitalic and Soulwax-esque feorcity.

Angé makes her debut on Wrong Era with the slick 'Daydream'. A record filled with instantly signature bass hooks and celestial soundscapes that encapsulate her dark, driving, energy-fueled vision. This vision is evident from the get-go with the anthemic 'Daydream'. A pulsating and undoubtedly infectious floor filler with captivating, eerie vocals. The cascading arps of '5AM' follow this tone, flowing in and out of acidic synthesis and piercing percussion. 

'Kevin' is charged with slick post-punk and flashes of shoegaze in the guitar work, amongst powerful vocal cuts and metallic synth lines. 'Sans Nom' is the perfect conclusion to 'Daydream', with an ever-evolving bassline and haunting choral lines. The Estonian producer, selector and co-founder of Tallinn's renowned Dark Disco event series has created a distinctive release with elegant cohesion, leaving us eager for another dive into her sonic realm.

Another Tamas another remix; melodic prince @lerm_ofc constructed "Aflixxion" into house disguised techno, very very tricky, well done boy. Driving, groovy, a bit acidic, what else do we need for the summer of 2025?

Francisco & Cosmo - System 3

At the bar she sat poised and ready, her eyes scanning the room intently. Her lips were painted a deep rouge and her cat-like eyes accentuated with dark eyeliner. Around the room smartly dressed men sat swilling whiskey in their cut glass tumblers, pretending they had important matters of business to discuss. From her seat she tried to catch their eye but most of them averted her gaze, fumbling their glasses or looking at the feet. Everybody here knew who she was and the trouble that she and her deadly beauty brought with her. Many had fallen at her feet before, and many would again. 

Next up on Optimo Music's schedule is a debut EP from Matisa, an Italian-born DJ and producer who brings her sophisticated stylings to the Twitch and Jonnie's imprint. For a first EP the result is a slick, highlighting her love for disco, house and electro, through driving cosmic synths and robotic vocal slivers. Fresh Italo House for the dance floor.

PREMIERE: Matisa - Honey Comb [Optimo Music]

On this track, Pasteur Charles & DJ Tsygan mime a new wave 80's band in their own way : robotic vocal cuts, new beatish bass and romantic synths to creates a final emo piece for their EP "Maximal Dance"

'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)
