Amsterdam, September 7th 2010 – Perfecto Records, the UK record label of Paul Oakenfold, has joined forces with Armada Music. The Dutch record company will now distribute and market the Perfecto, Perfecto Digital and Perfecto Black catalogue, including releases by artists such as Adam White, BT, Hernán Cattáneo, Infected Mushroom, Jan Johnston and of course Oakenfold himself.
Perfecto was set up by UK producer/DJ Paul Oakenfold in 1989, as the young dance movement was just coming up in Europe. Aim of the label was to find new talent and encourage them, rather than pressuring them to produce for commercial purposes. Oakenfold, who was nominated for a ‘Best Electronic/Dance Album’ Grammy twice and whose 2004 mix album ‘Another World’ has turned into one of the biggest selling dance albums of all time, felt it was the right time to start a collaboration with Armada Music. Paul:”I’m really happy to be involved in this joint venture with Armada. I think they are one of the most cutting edge electronic labels out there and I look forward to a fruitful relationship.”
Perfecto Records and Armada Music are both looking forward to working together. The first release after the joint venture will be the new Paul Oakenfold single, ‘Firefly’, a collaboration with UK singer Matt Goss, who used to be the lead singer of 80’s pop group Bros. (‘When Will I Be Famous’). Following ‘Firefly’, are releases by Robert Vadney and Kenneth Thomas, as well as a Perfecto Mix Co
mpilation and Perfecto Classics album.
