Influential dance label Perfect Havoc will take over room 103 at the iconic Ministry of Sound in its venue debut on November 24th. This is the latest label party following other sold-out events at the likes of Amsterdam Dance Event and offers fans a deep dive into the unique Perfect Havoc sound with some of its key protagonists all playing.
Perfect Havoc is a major tastemaker in the dance music world that has held pop-ups all over the capital as well as in San Francisco, Stockholm, Bergen and Paris, plus co-residencies out in Ibiza with WNDRLND at Eden. This year the label was shortlisted for Best Independent Record Label at the 2023 Music Week Awards and since then has continued to lead from the front with plenty of big crossover but club-focused sounds including six UK Top 20 singles and 10 billion global streams. This year it has continued to offer up fresh sounds from a mix of contemporary talents, many of whom will now line up for this unmissable party at Ministry of Sound.
Chief amongst them is Alife Cridland, a red-hot UK talent who dropped his ‘Respect’ single on this label in August after his previous outing ‘New Levels’ picked up 30 million streams. His bold tech house and ability to mash up all things electronic, R&B and hip hop, is as impactful as it gets so is perfect for the famous Ministry of Sound Dolby Atmos sound system.
Brand new label signing and talented producer, drummer and vocalist Stephani B also lines-up and will be dropping brand new music with Movada in early November which shows why she has already been tipped for big things by BBC Radio 1. Acclaimed and innovative artist Movada himself is also set to play after his summer bass anthem ‘Closer’ with Croydon rapper BAMY was the third in a quick succession of his tunes to be all over Radio 1 and TikTok.
Label head Adam Griffin who is a masterful A&R who discovered the now three-time Brit Award nominee Joel Corry will go back-to-back with fellow label A&R, Tim Hughes. Griffin has also produced a body of tracks – both solo and in collaboration with legends like Todd Terry – that now have over 25 million streams and high-profile support from the likes of BBC Radio 1.
Young Northern Irish talent Jack Kelly also stars to serve up his modern and futuristic approach to deep house music that has earned him an impressive 5 million streams globally and fans in EDM giants Nicky Romero and R3HAB who both spun his single ‘Driving’.
Alexis Knox competes the bill in 103 with her party-starting style as heard around the capital at parties like HE.SHE.THEY and as Charli XCX’s tour DJ, and on original productions which have made the Top 3 of the iTunes Charts and been synced on Love Island.
Perfect Havoc will also have a foot in the main room with sets coming from Tobtok – whose recent ‘My Friends’ EP with farfetch’d proved a huge stutter house hit and got plenty of major radio airplay – and PS1, the New Yorker whose debut single ‘Fake Friends’ was a global hit, and who holds key residencies across the Big Apple as well as at Hakkasan in Las Vegas. They appear alongside Future headliners and house heroes Benny Benassi and Offiah.
This special Perfect Havoc take-over marks a welcome return to London for one of dance music’s most on-form labels.
Tickets are available from £15 (+ bf) at www.ministryofsound.com.
