Exploited Rec is back with Secret Gold 03, a five-track 'mini compilation series'  showcasing a variety of tracks from the extended Exploited family.

The title of the first track on the compilation is, according to newest member Michelle Owen, inspired by a quote frequently used by Shakespeare; 'What Say You?', a floor filler, resonating classic and rounded off elements. 

An appearance from Rey & Kjavik supplies casual and cool synths, featuring edgy vocals from Julian Smith.

Third on the Compilation is LA's most "of the moment" house export and Exploited signing Urulu, whose sounds are a joyful blend of 90's nostalgia and up to the minute house music.

Hip-Hop enthusiast Sishi Rosch supplies another combination of familiar, classic house atmosphere with modern influences.

For the closing track, Pavel Petrov unveils a deep and enchanting track, taking you on a smooth ride. 

Exploited Rec is once again proud to release an inspired edition of Secret Gold.

Shir Khan Presents Secret Gold 03 (Preview) | Exploited

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)
