Leading a path back to the early days of Exploited Club, this second release on the label from Atlanta-based Diynamic / VOD / TAU artist oozes old skool electro flavour from every pore—and it tastes delicious.
‘We Only Want To Be Bad’ leads the charge, flexing Hi-NRG muscle with its off-beat bassline, snazzy melodies and campy vocals. The breakdown takes things into a more heavenly space before we slam down into the hard-funking groove, ethereal vox synths and jaunty chord sequences. A masterclass in retro revivalism.
‘Song & Dance’ has shades of early Erlend Øye or Nicolas Jaar in its mysterious and pared-back vocal stylings, while rubbery bass funk and squelchy synths continue the Hi-NRG feel. ‘Brain Dead’ is a sexxxy little number, all propulsive electro funk, squealing synths and deliciously groovy bass. The bugged-out vocals fit perfectly with the retro-futuristic darkness of the synth pads and vibrato leads. ‘Lie To Me (Alt Mix)’ is the cherry on the cake, where a stomping breakbeat rhythm jostles with cool melody, distorted guitar-like fuzz and effortless vocals. The twists and turns in the composition, slick production and myriad synth parts make it an addictive listen.

Berlin 

Premiere: Sandhog - Berlin [Exploited Club]

World On A Wire With Shir Khan - 10th April 2024

Recorded LIVE in Why Nam Beach, Koh Phangan, Thailand. This was such a great day & night party on the beach. I played from 17.30 until 20.00. I love playing more sunny for sunset and then going more heavy when the sun goes down. The crowd and vibes very magic from start to finish. This event was done by my friends from Bar 25 who started hosting events on Phangan. Maybe someone remember the famous Bar 25 after-hour club in Berlin (which does not exist anymore).

INCOMING : Modular Project - Sex! #Exploited
BUY : https://ffm.to/modularproject-its-time
Release date : 2024-04-19

Early support by Rampa, Agoria, Perel, Terr, Damon Jee, Shubostar, Mano Le Tough, Whitesquare, Biesmans, Hardt Antoine, Fabrizio Mammarella, Boys' Shorts, Jonas Rathsman, Phunkadelica, Joyce Muniz, Speaking Minds, Kasper Bjoerke, Alinka, Darker Than Wax...

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.

Sonar Istanbul (2024)

Pre-save to your Playlist: https://ffm.to/budakid_infinity 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.'

Groove Podcast 419 - Joyce Muniz

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)
