Pandemics and presidential elections aside, record labels and producers across the world have been saviours in delivering much-needed new music to keep spirits high. London-based, independent record label, Perfect Havoc, has had its most successful year to date breaking the half a billion streams barrier, signing the longest running UK No.1 single of 2020, and discovering some of the brightest young talents in the crossover house music scene.
As a big thank you to every person who bought, streamed, Shazamed, and followed the Perfect Havoc story this year, the hit-making imprint has launched a 12-days of Christmas giveaway. 12 exclusive tracks from its roster of essential house artists will be available to download for free, together with 1 exclusive DJ mix, from the Perfect Havoc website.
Every day from 13th December to Christmas Day, brand new music and themed, bespoke artwork can be downloaded from platinum selling artists such as Tobtok and Oliver Nelson; new signings Henry Hacking and Fubu; UK chart-toppers PS1; label co-founder, Adam Griffin, and many more besides.
The cherry on the Christmas cake is that all 12-tracks will be expertly crafted into a downloadable, full-length DJ mix, fit for any Christmas party. Taking the reins on the mix are Swedish wunderkind, Tobtok and Adam Griffin who – when clubs were open – were regularly seen packing dancefloors from London to LA at Perfect Havoc club nights in their b2b sets.
Download all 12 tracks for your arsenal
Adam Griffin says, “It’s been an incredibly difficult year for everyone. We’ve all faced problems from the COVID-19 pandemic and from other sources. We wanted to give something back, so we dreamt up the 12 free days of downloads pre-Christmas. For the producers who’ve had an exceedingly tough time being unable to express themselves and their music at the weekends, their generosity here is incredibly kind and epitomises the Perfect Havoc spirit. We hope everyone enjoys these as much as we do giving them! We wish you all a Merry Christmas and a much better new year.”
