Virgin Radio UAE Dance Show Host, Scott Forshaw, delivers another peak-time weapon alongside pioneers of the UAE electronic scene, Hollaphonic on the hit making label, Perfect Havoc. Engineered for dark and heavy dancefloors, ‘Intoxicated’ is a thumping house cut, loaded with slick stab synths, driving rhythm and pulse-raising risers—an essential soundtrack for summer club sessions.
Scott Forshaw is no stranger to the club world. The Universal Music Group Publishing signee has over 15 million global streams and more than 200 published tracks to his name on powerhouse labels like Armada, Ultra, and Toolroom, including co-writes for John Newman, Altego, and Black Caviar. As a fixture of Dubai’s club scene, Forshaw has been a resident DJ at Zero Gravity since 2016, and now for summer 2025, he’ll also be found spinning at a series of weekly events at Surf Club Dubai, arguably the hottest beach club in town right now, before returning to the city’s largest outdoor event, Untold Festival in November. Currently enjoying a viral moment with his Calvin Harris vs Rufus Du Sol, Forshaw’s influence continues to increase, positioning him as an artist to keep an eye on.
Joining forces once again are Hollaphonic, the British duo known for their punchy productions and dynamic live shows. Since forming, they’ve cultivated a global fanbase, buoyed by early support from tastemakers like Pete Tong, Claptone, and The Blessed Madonna. Their breakout single ‘Save Me’ catapulted them onto the international stage, landing 25 New Music Friday placements and earning the coveted cover spot on Spotify’s Mint playlist. Renowned for their electrifying live sets, Hollaphonic have performed alongside acts such as The Killers, David Guetta, and Armin Van Buuren, and continue to stand out as one of London’s most exciting electronic exports.
Perfect Havoc remains at the forefront of crossover dance music, boasting over 11 billion global streams, six UK Top 20 singles, and numerous platinum, gold, and silver awards. The label has an exciting stack of releases in store for the remainder of the year from Stephani B, PS1, Crvvcks, Deep Fiktion, and others, each promising to deliver even greater sound and energy than before.
