At it for a while now, Shir Khan has built up a heavy reputation around his Exploited imprint, among some of the more elite champions of all things deep and funky. The range of DJs regularly championing Exploited releases is at the very least a great excuse for you to dig into what this label is all about. 
Early support so far by Noir, Tensnake, Pedro Winter, Citizen, DJ T, Miguel Campbell, Adana Twins, Agoria, Sonny Fodera, Moodymanc ect. 

Their latest in the Secret Gold series is as good a place as any to start. The EP features four standup tunes: “Give It To Me” from PJU feat. Josh Caffe & Robert Owens on the vocals, Antilope (from Belgium’s Libertine Supersport Crew) with "Body Trouble", Kevin McKay (from Glasgow Underground) with "Everythings A Dream" and hotly tipped newcomer Will Clarke with "Gunna Give U". File this under hella fresh.

1. About GIVE IT TO ME by PJU
Whilst out clubbing one night in London PJU bumped into London DJ & club host Josh Caffe and Cedric of Azari & lll. Before long they all ended up at an after party. They talked to Josh about singing on this track they had been working on which was inspired by this classic Chicago house track called ’Donnie’ by this obscure act 'The It’.
Josh jumped on the idea. Said & done, whilst in PJU's west London studio recording Josh's exhilarating vocal, PJU played Josh the ’Donnie’ track which had this haunting soulful vocal which they discovered was by a certain Mr Robert Owens. Josh flipped and said he's good friends with Mr Owens, let's get him on the track!! A month later Robert Owens was in the PJU studio. He delivered, on the spot, exactly what the track needed. The result is the track "Give It To Me" now featured as the first song on Exploited Records Secret Gold Compilation Vol 6.

2. About BODY TROUBLE by ANTILOPE
Handling softnesses with the delights until the delirious rhythms shocks, 
the reflection of a tainted essence of sincerity and devotion, Belgian Antilope finds inspiration in a changing reality, with the will to reveal one ounce, even infinite, of hope and unity.

3. About EVERYTHINGS A DREAM by KEVIN MCKAY
While exchanging remixfiles for his act Mia Dora for an upcoming Exploited Release by Human Life & Anabel Englund, Kevin (the man from Glasgow Underground) got in touch and sent through some of his original material. 'Everythings A Dream' got immediately signed by Shir Khan. 

4. About GUNNA GIVE U by WILL CLARKE
Will Clarke just got back from a tour in Australia and this track always turned heads down with a large response from the punters: With the first drop being quite a four to the floor chugger to the break down having a more euphoric feel with the pitched vocals and organs.

Premiere: Raxon - Cyber Funk (no_ip Remix) [DSK Records]

Sincopat is excited to present a fearless return from Cabizbajo, solidifying his position at the forefront of Mexico’s electronic music scene.

The release opens with “White Eyes,” where Cabizbajo crafts a hauntingly hypnotic groove that pulses with energy and ethereal tension. This track exemplifies minimalist design, with each sound carefully chosen to draw the listener into a moody and immersive experience.
Next, Waltervelt offers a reinterpretation of “White Eyes,” taking the original and transforming it into a spacious, dub-influenced groove. This version unfolds with deep atmospheric pressure and elegant restraint.

The journey continues with “Hive Mind,” a cerebral, percussive exploration of collective consciousness through rhythm and texture. This track is raw, precise, and irresistibly physical— ideal for the darker hours on the dance floor.

Club Kids closes the release with an ode to rave-era rebellion: punchy, stabs in a track that oozes charisma and club nostalgia while staying undeniably forward-thinking.

Enjoy!

HYPERFIXATIONS vol. 1 is the debut compilation from Portugal’s forward-thinking label Ritmo Futuro, showcasing tracks they’re obsessively drawn to—music that demands attention and lingers long after the party ends.

Curated by Rick Offen, this first volume captures the immersive state of sonic hyperfocus, where rhythm overtakes thought and music becomes pure sensation—like the trance-like focus of Formula 1 drivers.

The compilation spans hypnotic minimalism, percussive intensity, and futuristic textures—each track a moment of deep, instinctive connection.

MMYYLO - Fury (Waltervelt Turbo remix)

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)
