It was, and will always be, a Samurai Music VS Exit Records 'battle'. For me, Exit has it in the bag this year, although Samurai comes 3rd place overall (including all D&B labels, not just the 170bpm labels).

Yeah. I got that wrong. Overall for what Exit have planned this year, I don't think they can be touched. This year, so far I agree that it is Samurai with the Horo bundle and Sam KDC 12". Will have to see how things turn out by December time
so there is a good possibility that the other tune on Stray's new Ep is called Fragile. Audio in Rockwell's latest show

wonder where Rip N Dip will crop up then?

In my opinion, Samurai has the better and more diverse release schedule this year and while Exits output is undoubtedly quality it mostly seems to be the tiring juke sounds that they are pushing rather than the experimental minimal of yesteryear. Take the Perez EP, its good and all but it isn't particularily exciting or innovative anymore which is what I have come to expect from Exit
Samurai on the other hand has ASC, ENA, Tokyo Prose and Clarity and thats just the LPs. They are diverse, they are experimental and all appealing in their own right and that goes before mentioning the latest slew of releases we have just had. Even though I wasn't the biggest fan of the fre4knc bit i know a lot of people were digging that but the other 4 were immense and among very few records I've deemed worthy of purchase this year.
My two cents

THIS! I am so fucking tired of these juke tunes. Seriously needs to die.
Wish exit would go back to the autonomic sounds they were pushing a couple years ago...their releases have been rubbish as of late. IMO
That being said some releases they have lined up this year make me drip from my vag with exitment...

I wish label x would make tunes like they used to
I wish artist x would make tunes like they used to
Furthering the negative drum & bass fan stereotype of being stuck in the past

man they can make what ever they want except trap or juke cos they are both terrible... just say
I dont get why everyone is using the perez EP as an example of a bad exit release, it's still experimental, just as much so as any samurai release it just has a more diverse range of influences that may span genres that people don't like. Personally I love it cos i feel that perez is pushing a new sound which I don't think samurai are anymore.
So ambient is somehow experimental and juke is tired? Got it.
For the love of god, it's not "juke," it's footwork.

Lol at thinking the chilled side of things is experimental and new in some way.

I always thought those terms were interchangeable, but I say footwork
Juke is a totally different genre. DJ Funk plays Juke. DJ Rashad plays Footwork.
