Atlanta producer Sejva is a one-man electro powerhouse, lacing his tracks with bold analog synths, punchy drum machines and his own tripped-out vocals. His debut EP was released on Toro Y Moi main man Chaz Bear’s Company Records in 2016, and he recently released on acclaimed VOD label. He presents his sonic ID in bold fashion on this 2-track release for Exploited.

‘Enough Of You’ channels high-camp/drama ‘80s electro pop from the likes of Visage and Yazoo, with a jagged-edge, buzzing synth arpeggio at the core of the track. The distinctive, sultry male vocal provides the perfect foil for this aggressive bottom end, and a high-pitched synth line with just the right whiff of cheese tops the package off. Soaring strings lift the track further as the mechanical beats slam away and another cute synth arp bubbles away in the higher registers. And is that a sidechained motorbike engine we can hear towards the end? Why not....

‘By Your Side’ gets to work in no time with its guttural, droning bass pulses and unfurling synth blasts decking out a spartan, authentically electro drum pattern. The vocals are more heavily effected and contorted here, giving a more trippy feel as the brooding track slowly rises. A sprightly, shiny synth arpeggio ascends through the octaves while a nagging, vaguely Arabic sounding pulse adds a hazy, psyched-out element. A hugely dramatic, prolonged breakdown creates an epic, haunting mood, which is briskly segmented by the drop — where the bassline morphs and wiggles fantastically into a squealing, acidic direction.

Having already impressed via a slew of releases for Correspondant, Live At Robert Johnson and his own Biologic Records, DC Salas tees up an impressive release for Futureboogie.  ‘The Weight Of Uncertainty’ EP illustrates the suave sounds that the Brussels born producer has become noted for, and comes backed with a remix from the supremely talented and always on-point I:Cube.

In its original mix, ‘The Weight Of Uncertainty’ dips into a smorgasbord of sound, as touches of Belgian New Beat slide on up against balearic disco tropes for a spectacular body & soul workout.  The legendary French disco architect and Versatile Records mainstay, I:Cube, floats in on a little fluffy cloud for a terrific ambient dance version, fuelled by the kind of IDM brain scrambling sounds once present in the DNA of producers like Carl Craig, B12, Black Dog and Autechre.

On his two other originals, DC Salas gets raw and grungy on ‘Gliding Sound’, its distorted edge adding to the drama composed by the heavy hitting synth lines and the gnarly percussive pattern, whilst ‘They Don’t See It’ introduces some dark acid elements to the chugging rhythm and steely hi-hats anchoring the tracks off-kilter melodies.

'The latest signing on Local Suicide’s imprint Iptamenos Discos is the Greek DJ / producer duo Boys’ Shorts. They’re delivering their new futuristic EP titled ‘New Era’, which includes remixes from Each Other, Lott & Local Suicide as well as Luca dell’Orso. The duo was founded by Thessaloniki-based artist Vangelis, who runs half of the music blog & label LAGASTA, as well as London-based artist Tareq. They’ve previously had releases on labels such as Super Drama, Royal Advisor, Hottwerk as well as Love Child, while also doing remixes for artists like Kasper Bjorke, Yuksek with Polo & Pan, Dharma and Kito Jemere feat. Wolfram.

	“The track was written during the lockdown period when everything looked so uncertain and scary … We were listening to a lot of music from bands as ‘Japan’ and ‘Visage’,  talking about the “New Romantics” era, thinking of what will come after this new reality we’re living in. And so “New Era” came as a result of all the relationships that were reconsidered the last two years, to show the importance of human touch and what really actually matters.” - Boys’ Shorts

The track immediately gives off a sense of space exploration due to the sound of the melody being played. While the repetitive bass keeps the track driving as the pads elevate you to a higher level, the drums keep you grooving with delicate knocks and cowbells as the claps work with the cowbells to bring some more energy into the track. There’s a slicing, ‘swoosh’ sound that fills the space of an open-hat which breaks the four bar loop subtly but perfectly. The track's vocals have a wide sound to them that helps simulate the vastness of space. 

The critically acclaimed New York-based duo Each Other, consists of Max Pask & Justin Strauss. Max is part of The Rapture & James Friedman’s label Throne of Blood, while Justin was part of power-pop band Milk ’n’ Cookies. Previously they’ve released their original productions and remixes on labels like Soulwax’s DEEWEE, Freeride Millennium, Correspondant and more. Their version of ‘New Era’ brings a more energetic break-beat style tune that’s more in your face than the original. The synth plucks feel as though they’re jabbing you, trying to get you to move while building up tension. When the next synth comes in the track starts flowing, especially when the hats start grooving along with it. The vocals are clearer and more direct when compared to that of the original. The synth keys that come later resemble that of an organ but still have a futuristic sound to them. 

Having released on labels such as Italo Moderni, Wrong Era, Bordello A Parigi & XXX, the Dutch born, Italo-wave-electro producer Luca dell’Orso brings a sense of hi nrg and italo disco to ‘New Era’. Between the sound of the synth and the kicks as well as the use of repetitive kicks, the track puts an awesome and nostalgic twist on Boys’ Shorts track. 

Tel Aviv artist Lott, who has previously released on labels like Feines Tier, New Day Everyday, Karakter Records & Belly Dance Services joins up with Iptamenos Discos heads, Local Suicide to create the ‘In The Trance Mix’ of ‘New Era’. The track has a jerking and rolling bass that moves through your body. The percussion and drums are delicate, leaving more room for the classic mind-bending synths that are typical of trance music. The vocals are also super spacey and copped up and add an awesome groove. 

Boys’ Shorts and the contributors set out to create a project with the idea of providing an outer worldly experience, that is exactly what they did with each track having its own unique style. ‘New Era’ will be released digitally and on strictly-limited clear 12” Dubplate through Iptamenos Discos on February 25th.'

PREMIERE – Raly ft. Daniel Mesguich – Boredom (Dario Dea Remix) (Urge to Dance)

Since she'd left the bright lights of the city it had become clear how much of the cosmos was being hidden from her. Pollution seemed to block out the beauty of it all, a thick fog that clung to the air for dear life masking all that lay above it. Out here everything came into focus; the moon and the planets glowed with an intensity she couldn't begin to describe. The map of the cosmos was clear and defined, now she could find her way amongst the stars.

Taking inspiration from Detroit's historic deep house scene, Italian born producer Ràkale - who heads up the label of the same name - makes his debut on Massimiliano Pagliara’s Funnuvojere Records. Like much of the previous outings on the label, Ràkale's Irregular Step concerns itself with cosmic sounds, taking us on a trip through stirring. emotive melodies. Flaunting his deftness at creating crystallised synth lines and buoyant grooves, the EP draws on elements of electro, Italo, Chicago house and synth wave.

Mexican label Duro welcomes Esprit Divers, the new alias of Coyu, the celebrated Catalan DJ and founder of Suara. After being published on Kompakt's Speicher X series with 'Turbulentos', the Catalan DJ returns with ‘Neophobia’, a two original EP with a tremendous remix from English producer Third Son.

“Eclecticism and diversity is something that has followed me since I started to get interest on music. This is why I have decided to split my projects and create Esprit Divers, who will be in continuous motion seeking for different sounds, based on the idea of music of contrast: light and dark, sorrow and hope, mind and soul.” Esprit Divers

The extraordinary opener is "Slow Retrogress", a cut with solid drums like an iron horse, magnetic rolling bass, an edged melody, and hallucinating vocals. The moment where the train derails and plummets down the tunnel. "Neophobia" might sound like a classic tech house groove, but as it goes along it twists and turns out of reality in a deep and mind-blowing way. The drums and bass create the never-ending mental loop, until the spell is broken by the horns of veracity accompanying the lead vocal, only to be suddenly dumped again to the loophole.

Last of all is the remix from Polymath’s Third Son, a more upbeat and playful cut. The glitchy and erroneous percussions slowly introduce you to then be greeted by a neat and cool synthesizer. Creating a majestic, heterogeneous and open atmosphere.

We’re proud to welcome Dwight Brown to Move Music Productions with his debut release, “Your Words” (ft. Imani & Maggie). A track that blends deep melodic house with warm Afrobeat textures.

The vocals lift the track - real, evocative, and genuinely uplifting. There’s a deep, soulful energy running through “Your Words” that gives the whole release a spiritual edge, moving minds and bodies in equal measure.

This is house music with soul and spirit, the kind that stays with you long after the last kick fades. It’s no surprise Capital Chill have already added it to their daily playlist.

On remix duties:

Ranj Kaler brings a classic funky house groove. A modern nod to those timeless, feel-good funky house classics.

Herringbone strips it back with a Balearic, atmospheric rework. The vocals floating over sun-soaked chords, perfect for golden-hour listening.

Three interpretations, each offering a different path, but together they form a journey. From dancefloor energy to deep, contemplative space, all driven by the same uplifting core.

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)
