Posted by VMan on August 4, 2022
Iran born, India based actress, model and dancer Elnaaz Norouzi steps into the world of music with her first ever single via “La La Love”. This is the first piece of music (or visuals) I’ve seen by this artist but it was quite impressive, probably due to her modeling/acting background. A catchy song and video right here, so be sure to check out the video for her debut track “La La Love” above now and read a quote from her on the release after the jump!
“La La Love’ to me is my first born. I can’t think much of what the words mean to me but when I think of ‘La La Love’ I remember how my journey of music started and how long it has been that I’ve been holding on to this song before I can show it to the world. “
Albums | UK Duo Just Kiddin Return to Perfect Havoc Alongside DiRTY RADiO With New Single ‘Moonshine River’ ?
Posted by VMan on August 3, 2022
UK duo Just Kiddin deliver their first release on Perfect Havoc since officially signing to the label’s management arm in June. ‘Moonshine River’ is a feelgood single with rolling piano groove and soulful vocals and comes in collaboration with the impressively eclectic Vancouver-based production outfit, DiRTY RADiO. Released on 29th July, the wild-west-inspired single cuts a creative line between commercial dance and modern soul and showcases these producers at their very best.
Hailing from Northamptonshire, Just Kiddin aka Lewis Thompson and Laurie Revell have been working up a storm since their 2014 summer hit ‘Thinking About It’. Released by Parlophone’s dance imprint, FFRR, it received over 50 plays across BBC Radio 1 and 1Xtra and over 16 million streams online.
Fast forward and the talented producers now have streaming numbers clocking over 200 million globally. Contributing to that count is the 2021 single ‘Risk It All’ with Ella Henderson and House Gospel Choir, which received a ‘Hottest Record’ accolade from Charlie Hedges on BBC Radio 1 and playlisted on BBC Radio 2. And their collaboration ‘Closer’ with Sonny Fodera proved a streaming hit on Spotify, finding its way into the platform’s biggest dance playlists such as Beast Mode and mint.
Since first appearing on Perfect Havoc in 2019 with a remix of ‘Fallen’ by Joel Corry, Just Kiddin went on to release the Radio 1 “Future Anthem” ‘Body Talk’ (on Nothing Else Matters), to the more recent contagious pop-dance outing ‘Change My Mind’ which received 11 spins on BBC Radio 1’s Party Anthems and charted at #7 on Billboard’s Dance/Mixshow Chart.
On the touring side, Just Kiddin will play four dates at the new Joel Corry Pool Party residency at Ibiza Rocks this summer, as well as for WNDRLND x Perfect Havoc at Eden Ibiza on 30th July.
The DiRTY RADiO outfit aka Shadi, Waspy and Tonez has been churning out a satisfying synthesis of progressive soul, R&B and electronic sounds since 2010. Their diverse sounds have been dropping on such prolific labels as Spinnin’, Majestic Casual and Mad Decent, racking up 20+million streams on Spotify and international airplay all the way from the UK on BBC Radio1Xtra to triple j in Australia.
That global appeal has earned DiRTY RADiO collaborations with respected artists from all over, including Young Franco (Australia), Mike Mago (Holland), Jean Tonique (France) and many others. Their sexy, soul-drenched R&B and pulsing dance floor bangers have evidently been turning heads, and they’ll continue to do so on this latest release.
Perfect Havoc – a runner-up for Best Independent Record Label at the 2022 Music Week Awards – is one of the most successful indie dance labels of recent years. Its trademark commercial dance with a smattering of the more club-focused sounds has generated the label over 5 billion streams and given rise to six UK Top 20 singles including the No.1 single ‘Head & Heart’ by four-time Brit Award nominated producer, Joel Corry & MNEK.
With a talent-packed schedule for 2022 that also features releases from PS1, Austin Millz, Simon Fields and many more, Perfect Havoc is guaranteed to serve up a ton of new accessible and underground house sounds from both breaking and established talent.

“‘Come Around’ started when Juelz swung by my studio and we started messing around with a couple of ideas I had. We built the track that day and had a good friend of ours (who shall not be named) come and sing on it. The whole process happened effortlessly and we had a blast working on it.
The goal is to connect Coka Cobra in the festival trap space and to celebrate creativity while creating music that doesn’t try to fit in a box or try to be anything but uniquely itself.” – Coka Cobra

Albums | Rising LA Rapper Chris Siders Shares New Single “The Invisible Man”
Posted by VMan on July 28, 2022
LA-born rapper and artists Chris Siders has set out to deliver exciting, innovative and brutally honest storytelling in the world of hip-hop. The up-and-coming LA based rapper only has a slew of releases under his belt but he has no plans to stopping anytime soon. His new single “The Invisible Man” shows off his impressive lyricism and dives into his feelings on imposter syndrome, which is a major reoccurring theme for a lot of rising artists in the music industry as of late. Tune in above now!
“Growing up I faced a ton of imposter syndrome based on who the world was telling me I was. My high school criminalised me and labelled me as a troublemaker for getting into fights every other week. They did not know that I was simply defending myself from bullies who were taunting me and physically harming me because I am of a darker skin complexion. In the chorus I rap, ‘Runnin’ from myself / I ain’t a killer though / Paint whatever image / I present the picture though.’ In addition to getting bullied by colourist classmates, I felt this world does not care about young dark black individuals. I felt and even to this very day I feel invisible.” – Chris Siders
