Star producer Ben Pearce has joined the Perfect Havoc label family with ‘Read My Lips’, an emotive indie-dance single featuring a melancholic vocal performance by the BBC Introducing-tipped, Luke Burr.
A name synonymous with the anthemic deep house cut ‘What I Might Do’, which was named Essential New Tune by Pete Tong and dominated dancefloors in 2012, Ben Pearce earned instant respect from the dance music fraternity with his debut release.
The Manchester, UK talent was crowned DJ Mag’s Best Breakthrough Producer in 2013, made a recurring resident for ANTS at Ushuaia Ibiza, and placed on remix duties for Depeche Mode and Rag ‘n’ Bone Man to name just two.
What’s most impressive about Ben Pearce is his versatility, from the accessible outing ‘Fireproof’ signed to Skint/BMG – played over 20 times on BBC Radio 1 – to the experimental, spine-tingling work heard on his ‘Ascension’ EP project via PIAS Recordings.
Joining Ben on ‘Read My Lips’ is a fast-rising talent, Luke Burr. Hailing from Essex, UK, Luke’s vocal range is incredible and his falsetto, outstanding, which is on full display on this new single.
His 2019 version of Bobby Caldwell’s ‘What You Won’t Do For Love’ was featured on Love Island UK. 40,000 Shazam’s later, it shot straight to #1 on the UK Shazam charts and stayed in the Top 20 of the UK iTunes Charts for over six weeks. An outstanding live performer, Luke has toured the world acting as frontman with Rudimental, and toured his own headline show across the UK.
Out now, ‘Read My Lips’ shows us once again that Peace is a chameleon of a producer and can turn his hand to anything. Buy / stream here and keep an ear out for more Perfect Havoc releases in 2023 from Just Kiddin, Ros-T, Varski, Oliver Nelson and Tobtok.
