Not only an in-demand DJ, Anton has turned his talents to production, putting together inspired remixes for the likes of Kylie, Cheryl, Halsey & Stefflon Don: his recently released compilation Power House reached No 1 on the Official Compilation Album Chart.

28-year-old Tobtok aka Tobias Karlsson, is one of the most talented artists leading the new wave of Swedish electronic music DJ / producers. He has generated over 450+ million streams across his music globally with a double platinum record to his name in Australia with ‘Fast Car’ and enjoyed consistent regular DJ and radio support from the likes of BBC Radio 1, KISS FM, Capital Xtra and more and is in high demand as a remixer and producer for other artists such as Joel Corry, Aurora, Robin Schulz, L Devine, HRVY, Alex Ross, Karen Harding, Kesha and more. Tobtok’s previous release ‘New Levels’ achieved over 15 million streams globally and was championed as a Tune of the Week by Scott Mills on BBC Radio 1 along with receiving over 47 spins on the R1 station across Party Anthems and Dance Anthems whilst also gaining support far and wide on KISS FM, Capital Dance and Djs including Joel Corry, Sam Feldt, Sigala, Tiesto, Benny Bennassi and more.

With the success of his productions and remixes, Tobtok has had the opportunity to showcase his skills as a DJ with hugely respected house label, Toolroom, who invited him to provide a mix for their ‘Miami Poolside’ album series, he has graced the decks at a number of venues around the world including Ushuaia in Ibiza 6 times to date, and played The Warehouse Project, Village Underground and multiple Kitsuné parties.

With more massive tracks, collaborations and DJ sets lined up, Tobtok is ready to break through in a big way. 

Alongside co-founder Robert Davies, Adam Griffin has steered Perfect Havoc – also a management agency - into one of the most in-demand independent labels around. Its rising status is underlined by platinum certified releases, generating over one billion global streams, and breaking the three-time Brit Award nominated producer, Joel Corry on the No.1 single ‘Head & Heart’ with MNEK, and the No.3 single ‘Bed’ with RAYE and David Guetta.

From A&R’ing to his first studio outing in 2019, Griffin’s contagious house cuts prove this label boss can produce with the very best of them. His debut single ‘The Sting’ alongside Tobtok received key support from Annie Nightingale; ‘The Stand Off’ was a hit with Mistajam and made Future Anthem on BBC Radio 1, while ‘Don’t Over Think It’ - produced with house icon Todd Terry – was again a hit on Radio 1’s dance shows. Over 10 million streams have been generated so far by this versatile label head – former Senior Marketing Manager at Sony / RCA – and he’s only just getting started.

Australian singer-songwriter Alex Hosking first broke onto the UK scene with ‘Fake Friends’, a collaboration with New York based DJ/producer PS1, released on Perfect Havoc / Columbia Records in 2020. Fake Friends ended up at #19 in the official UK charts and Certified Silver. Alex’s latest release in 2021 includes another collaboration with PS1 called ‘Life Goes On’ which has been climbing the official UK charts with support from Capital FM, KISS FM and Radio 1 in the UK and so far racking up millions of streams.

Ends.
