Hailing from Liege in Belgium, David Body has been put on our radar with releases on the fine Endless Music — but this EP for Exploited’s Black Jukebox series looks set to propel him to a new level. 

‘I Bird You’ is a seriously charming affair, led by a colourful, sugary-sweet refrain that twinkles and sparkles in cute fashion. A warm deep house groove crafted through swirling Rhodes chords builds the vibe before the flowery melody explodes into life, pushing the track into an altogether more magical direction.

‘Jack Me Baby’ channels rubbery bass and a galloping house beat, with minor piano chords creating a dramatic feel as a classic vocal sample whoops away in delight. The enormous snare-rolled propelled build-up thrusts the track into overdrive, with a delightful, balmy synth line woven in to provide a mystical counterbalance. 

‘The Talking Mouettes’ is a supremely feel-good slab of Balearic-tinged house, with choice piano chords cut up and cascading over a high-energy groove. Big squelchy melodic bass wiggles under the chords and shoulder-popping chime riff, with plenty of power and punch scattered throughout to keep the vibes rolling.

‘Endless Love’ is an absolute monster to close the EP, a soaring, triumphant electro beauty that overflows with euphoric melody and ecstatic, eyes-closed-and-rolling tingles. It just keeps building and building through layer upon layer of synth mastery to an explosive, epic climax.

Belgian duo Chassé keep the acclaimed Black Jukebox series rolling with a 4-track EP that pays homage to classic US house sounds in accomplished style.

'Fake Real' kicks off with sunny abandon, all breezy piano chords and synth sax creating an authentic early-'90s NYC house vibe over plump plucked bass and lazily skipping percussion. Deep pads, bright strings and delicate synth arps bring the atmospheric edge. 

'People Dancing' ups both the chonk and swing factor, getting more jaunty with its live piano chords and lilting rhythm. Hazy, filtered electric piano chords swoon over classic drum hits, the deep and the pumping meeting in perfect harmony.

'Nightlife' takes snatches of classic house vocal and peppers them between melancholic chord samples and dramatic snare hits, and a tense breakdown that exacerbates the subtle qualities of this soulful stomper. A few carefully placed organ notes are all that's needed to draw the most out of the cool bassline funk.

'True Game' rounds off this delicious EP, finding itself somewhere between the classic US house vein and the French touch era, where graceful pads cut against jazzy organ chords, pitched-down vocals, garage snare patterns and seductive bass throbs.

4 big ol’ chunks of heavy house music are the order of the day from New York producer Ralph Session’s hot new EP for Black Jukebox. Combining his skills as a musician and seasoned DJ along with the technical know-how from his work as an audio engineer, the result is a collection of beautifully crafted, hard-hitting house cutz.
‘That Raw’ features a breathy spoken-word vocal from DJ Amir—one half of the legendary duo Kon & Amir—that laces the soulful, deep production with a hypnotic atmosphere. Thick bass bubbles beneath soaring strings and meandering synth arpeggios to give the track a set-building, big-room feel. ‘Do It’ rocks jaunty snatches of piano and sax over its peppy, skippy beat, with a little New Jersey feel in its incessant, phat-bottomed grove. ‘If You Want’ takes us into a deeper direction with its hazy pad work and dubby touches, with a slinky, rubbery bass groove that throbs hard beneath it all. Turn it up loud and feel it envelop you with its wide-open atmospherics. ‘Raw Sax’ rounds off with a dusty, skipping drum track shuffling around dreamy filtering synths, dubbed-out stab patterns and of course a sultry sax line.

After last year's release on Shall Not Fade, Paul Rudder & Kresy are back - this time on Exploited for the infamous Black Jukebox Series.

‘Along With You’ bounces along with plenty of feel-good energy, channeling ‘90s energy with its thicc bassline pump and an earworm of a sugar-sweet vocal. Well-chosen vox cuts create an infectious rhythm in between the full vocal sections while soft synth arps tickle the surface of the track and epic snare rolls inject more energy in the breakdown and at key moments. Guaranteed to get massive reactions. Kresy’s Continuum Mix takes things into a lighter direction with gorgeous, sunny piano chords chiming in unison with a driving, uplifting bassline and pretty synth flourishes.

‘Her Dream Road’ pushes the EP into almost ambient house territory with its swirling pads and deep atmospheres, but the energetic percussion and warm bassline throb and melody give it plenty of dancefloor energy. Kresy’s Mellonized Remix pumps it up with plump organ bass, dreamy acid licks, soaring arpeggios, continual automation and epic pad progressions that make for an absolutely huge rework that’s full of life, atmosphere and colour.

Exploited’s semi-regular “mini compilation” series continues, with Shir Khan collecting together a quartet of new cuts from the label’s extended roster featuring Psychodelico, Piemont, James Curd, Freeform Five/Tuff City Kids.

Design by Neven Cvijanović from Floor 5:
Shir Khan's childhood images turned into golden memories
(in this case a Monchichi / Shir Khan's first soft toy).

About the artists:
1. PSYCHODELICO
Psychodelico are a white duo from NY. Anthony & Martin met at University in the early 90’s. They immediately synched together and decided four years later to open a video rental store on the 5th Avenue.
The love for the 80’s and the rise of digital convinced them to hold tight to the VHS Library and start collecting all sorts of analogue machines knowing that one day for some reason it would have paid back.
For the last 3 years they have been discovering and enjoying their vinyls and watching with friends hundreds of old music video tapes. 
After getting inspired and writing some great music in the dusty basement that once used to be their store they finally decided to approach the dream label.
The story continues with Psycodelico’s first single “Sex On The Phone” getting signed to the mighty Exploited! A pure 80ies Cocktail: Human League and Depeche Mode Stylistico.

2. PIEMONT
Made up of long-time friends Frederic and Chris, the pair first decided to hook up and make music together back in 2007 and, since then have released on techno labels like Monika Kruse’s Terminal M, Area Remote, MBF and SKINT.
Piemont’s sound is best described as organic techno. Their music always comes stuffed with a sly robo-funk and is built in many rich layers. Their preference for ambient sounds, melodic lushness and abstract electronica makes every track different from the next - for evidence just listen to their recent 'Jack my Records' for Exploited, or earlier classics like Carbonat and Back Smoker.

3. JAMES CURD
After dropping "Red" and "I See Lights" on Exploited as Jimmy & Fred, the unstoppable Adelaide-based producer James Curd has teamed up with JDub (lead singer of the Greenskeepers Project) for a new collaborative track called “To Cool For School”. Anyone remember "Buffalo Girl" from 2008 featuring James Curd, Derrick Carter and JDub from 2008 on Greenskeepers Music? "To Cool For School" sounds like a proper update with illmatic verses and styles for 2014.

4. FREEFORM FIVE/TUFF CITY KIDS
The return of Anu Pillai’s Freeform Five has also coincided with a minor resurgence in electro clash – we’re not quite at 2007 levels yet but Five’s latest single (released earlier this year on Exploited), ‘Brandy Alexander‘ is pointing to something similar.
Pillai doesn’t really do simplicity, and ‘Brandy Alexander‘ sees the producer back to his most daring concocting a mixture of rolling acid lines, clash-y vocals and twisted basslines – and with an unreleased remix by Tuff City Kids 'Brandy Alexander' is back in safe hands.
Based just outside of Frankfurt Tuff City Kids is the alias for production duo Gerd Janson, boss of Running Back and long time DJ (Resident DJ in Panoramabar and Robert Johnson) and Arto Mwambe member Philip Lauer. Besides their far-reaching and esteemed solo careers, Tuff City Kids have provided remixes for high-profile artists such as Azari & III, Tensnake and Ali Love and released original EPs on Delsin and Osgut Ton sub-label Unterton. For Freeform Five's "Brandy Alexander" they delivered a stylish Italo-Disco-Update on Exploited which has been roadtested several times at Panoramabar Berlin and finally sees a release.

ANDY BUTLER / HERCULES & LOVE AFFAIR about this release:
"James Curd always bringing it." 

James Curd and Luke Million, what a pairing! After dropping an incredibly groovy tune “Yellow Magic” on Exploited as Luke & Jimmy, the unstoppable Adelaide-based producer James Curd has once again teamed up with fellow Aussie producer Luke Million (of The Swiss), for a new collaborative track called “Say The Words To You”. Featuring vocals from Nah Man!, aka Yeah Boy, the side project of Parachute Youth’s Johnny Castro, “Say The Words To You” is filled with Million’s signature synth lines and some serious French Touch vibes, and it’s every bit as delicious as you’d expect from this pair. Blast it above.

"Say The Words To You" pulls inspiration from the era when Chicago and Paris were walking hand in hand delivering the best house music in the world. It was like a friendly race to space with each city inspiring the other to out do the last release. Featuring Nah Man!’s vocals gives the song a perfect blend of vintage stylings with a current generations voice.

James Curd and Luke Million’s “Say The Words To You” EP comes out on September 8th (Beatport) / September  22nd (I-Tunes, Juno ect.) via Exploited (Beatport)

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.

Only one listen to the crystal clear rapture in the sound of Bodhi shows the funk influenced take on dance music this young duo have to offer. Olly Howells and Luke Welsby started producing together 2 years ago but ever since they kept on capturing the right attention. Therefore it is no surprise that Exploited picked them up to release three uplifting, warm and modern dance tracks. 

Bodhi’s crisp productions are known for having this retro yet fresh feel. It is because of this talent that they caught the attention of various celebrated labels such as Future Classic (gaining the attention of Pitchfork), Doc Daneeka’s Ten Thousand Yen, Sinden’s Grizzly and Push & Run. Furthermore, they are featured on the next Waze & Oddyssey Street Tracks vinyl compilation alongside Ejeca, xxxy, Citizen and Huxley. 
Over the past 12 months Bodhi have achieved a number two spot on XLR8R’s monthly ‘Most Downloaded’ charts, a number 1 spot on Hype Machine, featured on Mixmag as ‘Mix Of The Week’ and filmed an ‘Introducing’ session at the prestigious Red Bull Studios as well as notching up over two million listens on Soundcloud. They have been receiving love from a host of Radio 1 DJs and producers, including the likes of Rob Da Bank, Giles Peterson, Huw Stephens, Toddla T, Skream & Benga, SBTRKT, FaltyDL, Bonobo and Brodinski.

With this release on Exploited they only keep on broadening their musical universe proving their talent once again.

Shir Khan marks the 37th release on his infamous Black Jukebox imprint with an all-killer balearic house record courtesy of mysterious Cécille-affiliated Cabin Luv Affair hot on the heels of his debut album which has seen support from Fouk, Laurent Garnier, Jamie Jones, Mr. V and Archie Hamilton.
Here, the masked master lays out 5 convivial cuts that sit in a particular pocket between House and Disco; one that has historically been occupied by the likes of Pepe Bradock, Damiano Von Eckert and Andrés. A spot classically characterised by beautifully imperfect, sample-heavy productions that are shot through with palpable depth and soul.
The record sets sail with ’Te Siento’. Polyrhythmic percussion bubbles across the surface of a deep sonic pool that forms a bed for vivacious drums, romantic vocals and a spine-tingling strings riff. A hazy opening clears out before the backbone of recording shines through; an uplifting 90s piano motif that's later picked up by Xylophone tones while a tight, truncated bass line punches away at the track's core.
'Dance With Us' then rolls out a beautifully seductive mood. Softly shifting synth chords, a loose-limbed drum break and hedonic vocals whip up a hot and heavy vibe that shines with a distinctly Chicago-tinged elegance.
'Time Is Killing Us' follows up with an immaculately executed, 'last tune' House groove. A gentle but powerful euphoria is generated with swooning strings, more giddy piano riffs and another robust drum track that all gather momentum as progress rolls on. An ecstasy-crescendo forms before it crashes and fizzles before the lights go on.
'My Head Like Shibuya Crossing' then follows up with a tightly-knitted Deep House cut. Buttery melodies adorn an effortlessly kinetic bass groove before a delicate Japanese vocal bleeds into focus.

Worakls - When the birds go in the wrong way (N'to remix) *Free Download*

Album: Nehaj (2012)

In 2012, the Jazz Showcase established a tradition by allowing promising formations from the region to showcase their talents alongside up-and-coming young Hungarian jazz musicians, and has thereby made the ties between Hungarian, Polish, Slovakian and Czech performers even closer. In 2013, at the sixth Jazz talent fair, the concept remains the same, however, the talents will be coming from another part of the region. This year, young hopefuls from our neighbours to the South and the East: Romania, Serbia, Croatia and Slovenia have been invited to the Palace of Arts to show what they are made of; and perhaps be courted by prominent figures of the European jazz scene—festival and concert promoters, club organisers, journalists—who, in the future, might be giving the most promising performers the chance to perform or make recordings. 
On each day, four groups will have the chance to enchant audiences with a 40 minute performance each. Among the Hungarian youngsters taking to the stage will be the group made up of graduates of the Snétberger Music Talent Center, whose disadvantaged members were given the opportunity for further training at the camp in Felsőörs. Everyone is welcome to visit the free afternoon performances, from industry professionals to amateur jazz fans and veritable aficionados.

Vicetone feat. Collin McLoughlin - Heartbeat [OUT NOW!]

Supported by Maya Jane Coles, Tensnake, Huxley, David August, Ralph Lawson, Tiefschwarz, Claude Von Stroke, Axel Boman, Maxxi Soundsystem, Pete Tong, Jesse Rose, Hot Since 82, Karmon, Adriatique, Wildkats, Trickski, Kiki, Adana Twins, Doctor Dru, Kolombo, Round Table Knights, Meggy, NTFO, The Mekanism, Dyed Soundorom, Amin Edge, Andre Crom, Kaiserdisco, Emerson Todd, DJ Le Roi, Sasha, Homework, Dirty Doering, Martin Landsyk, Sinden, Hannah Holland, Telonius, Mercury.  

Fusing European, classic club sounds with distinctive and innovative influences from all over the world, Joyce Muniz succeeds in wowing her audience with yet another unique 3-track release: Trust Your Enemies, featuring Berlin-based Dominic Wirth aka Knixx.

Having previously collaborated for the floor filler Drop In Pressure on 2020Vision, Knixx and Muniz come together again for Trust Your Enemies.  Inspired by Joyce Grandmother's adage, 'keep your friends close and your enemies closer', the title track is uncharacteristically dark, with rolling, moody vocals while the remix has a more brazilian percussive / jackin house flavour.

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.

Having repeatedly won the Swiss Nightlife Award for Best Electronica DJ 2012, the energy-driven duo Round Table Knights serve their new 2-track release on Exploited Rec, supplying the tracks 'I Just Want' and 'Whoo'.

While 'I Just Want' comes off as a fresh and unique dancefloor classic, 'Whoo' adds a twist to the release by including a tribute to NYC-based indie rock band the Rapture's single 'WAYUH'.

Gabriel Andruzzi of the Rapture granted friendly permission, adding “I'm a big of The Round Table Knights. They always seem to make some really effective great sounding tracks.” The release indeed offers an impressive series of fine, state of the art house music, which leaves the audience curious for more.  

The release ‘I Just Want’ guarantees that 2013 is going to be a remarkable year for Biru Bee & Marc and their listeners.

Round Table Knights - I Just Want (Preview) | Exploited

Currently in the DMC UK BUZZCHARTS (6) and liked by Pete Tong, The Magician, Tensnake, Maxxi Soundsystem and Peter Kruder of Kruder&Dorfmeister to name a few. 

"Waiting For The Daylight" is a song about a conversation between an Astronaut and his wife. 
The spaceman has been stuck out there for years and is reaching a breaking point. 
He is a kind man on a mission but shows his fragility when he asks about his kids. 
Not knowing what time it is and not being able to listen to his music while even more frighten aliens cross his spaceship is testing very hard on his control. 
He spins between satellites but his hope for the daylight to appear is his only lifeline. 

Dino Lenny about this track: 
"I wrote this track badly playing my 100 year old Piano (recorded with my iphone)   
I was in my living room but like it often happens I felt I was out there in Space. Wondering about and feeling deep immerse in a mission that I didn't really care about.. 
I sometimes ask myself what is the point? But then as usual at the lowest step..  the light appears and I feel like a child in a sweet shop!" 

About Dino Lenny: 
Dino Lenny starts very young as a radio deejay in a small town of the South of Italy, Cassino. After a few years of experience, in the early mid nineties, he is crowned "master of ceremonies" of the Maltese nights, gathering more than 2000 people on the famous Axis' dancefloor. He grows up within an interesting group of lads such as Savino Martinez and Claudio Coccoluto, and in 1996 he decides to seek fortune in the United Kingdom, his native country. In London his career gets a boost thanks to a long series of important remixes: Inxs, Underworld, Missy Elliot, Timbaland etc and the collaborations with The Housemartins, Scissors Sisters & Madonna just to mention a few names. His productions are just as interesting as the remixes and Dino Lenny earns for three times in a row the label of " Essential New Tune" on Radio One (BBC) by Pete Tong. 
Considered "The Wizard of the Electronic music" by the Chemical Brothers, Dino Lenny explores the full range of his potentialities and starts singing. With a simplifying abbreviation of his name, Dino records the single “Call me” which becomes a terrifically popular track all over Europe. The British press defines his vocal talent as a halfway between the Talking Heads and Ian Dury. Dino shows up a perfect Serpico style and sings in front of his raving fans at Tops of the Pops. 
The successful single gives just a hint of what will happen with the release of the album "Might". 
Whilst busy with more important collaborations, Dino is invited by Hardage to take part to his project which includes Jocelyn Brown and Maxi Priest , Level 42 and Peter Gabriel, amongst the others. 
He produces with Steve Lawler under the name Sladly the well received “Unicorn” and writes the soundtrack for one episode of CSI Miami in the middle of the preparation of the next “solo” album. 
A few months later Dino Lenny flies to Montreal to open the UNICEF concert - which gathers more than 7,000 people.  
Dino warms up the audience for Avril Lavigne and at the end of 2011 he performs live with Skin & Underworld at The Brixton Academy 
Lenny has also written the soundtrack for one episodes of CSI Miami and also for Irvine Welsh's film "Ecstasy" 
After David Byrne's approval "I Wanna be Like Talking Heads/ A Dj Deep Inside" gets released on Strictly Rhythm. 
The story continues on his favourite label of the moment.. while he's still "Waiting For The Daylight" to come out soon on 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)
