Here’s something long buried in the Havok Archives. Produced by Mick Beatle under his pseudonym Charlie Don’t Surf, we’re proud to present the album Larder Than Life – a fierce collision of techno and breaks, stitched together with Beatle’s trademark precision and raw vinyl grit. Unearthed from the vaults and reimagined for 2026, it features brand‑new tracks alongside the long‑lost, never‑before‑officially‑released Havok 27, finally given its moment to detonate.

Every cut carries the unmistakable Havok DNA – distorted basslines, rolling percussion, and that relentless underground pulse that defined the night’s darker corners. Beatle’s alter‑ego channels the chaos with military discipline, turning forgotten fragments into a cohesive, pounding journey through the label’s shadow history. Expect heavy breaks, deep acid, and the unmistakable Havok edge –uncompromising, unfiltered, and unmistakably Beatle.

A brand new 2026 mix from Havok resident DJ, Mick Beatle. Part 2 of a four‑part set, Mick has pulled together a blazing selection of acid‑techno monsters produced by some of the legendary peeps from down‑south – the producers and troublemakers who helped define the Havok sound from the very beginning. Hidden B‑side burners, forgotten floor‑fillers, and long‑lost acid stompers all resurfaced, demanding a fresh spotlight.

More than worthy of their own showcase, these tracks are now stitched together in true Beatle fashion for your listening pleasure. Havok : Burn delivers a fierce, rolling, high‑energy edge – heavier and uncompromising, exactly as expected.

A brand new 2026 mix from Havok resident DJ, Mick Beatle. While digging through the crates in preparation for Havok’s 30th birthday, Mick unearthed a stash of long‑forgotten gems – B‑side killers and never‑played treasures hiding behind old Havok classics. More than worthy of their own spotlight, they’re now stitched together in true Beatle fashion for your listening pleasure. Expect a heavier, pounding techno edge than most of Beatle’s CDs, mixed straight from vinyl for that crackly, old‑skool Havok flavour.

Enjoy the chaos. Enjoy Life. Enjoy the Havok.

21 Years of Noise and Confusion is a celebration of Havok’s loudest, wildest years – a mix originally put together for our first reunion bash a decade ago. While digging through the crates to revive the spirit of those nights, Mick Beatle unearthed a stack of Havok classics: forgotten floor‑fillers, beloved train-spotted gems, and long‑lost weapons that once tore the roof off. More than worthy of a return to the spotlight, they’re stitched together here in true Beatle fashion, flowing from vinyl crackle to pounding techno chaos with that unmistakable old‑skool Havok energy.

Enjoy the noise. Enjoy the confusion. Enjoy the Havok.

We’ve dug back into the archives for this one, and it’s a real belter from Havok resident Nog, who manned the decks alongside Beatle and Medicine Man for many years. This mix features over an hour of high-energy techno and took some serious tracking down. Unfortunately, we couldn’t find the track listing, but if you are a fan of labels such as Tinrib, VCF, Choci’s Chewns or TEC, then this will be right up your alley – Enjoy!

With this mix, Mick Beatle once again combines his love of music and movies, capturing some of the Havok classics from 1999, layered with samples from the cult film of that year, The Blair Witch Project. Expect banging acid techno from artists such as Ramos, D.A.V.E. The Drummer, Choci, and Mick Beatle himself – under his Charlie Don’t Surf pseudonym – with a bit of funky breaks thrown in at the end for good measure.

Something classic from deep within the Havok archives. Originally released as a free mix CD in the late 1990s, Mick Beatle’s, Naked in Manchester, features some classic tunes being cained at Havok during that time. Mick also incorporates his love of movies by including a fair few vocal samples from Mike Leigh’s acclaimed film, Naked.

Another excellent mix from Havok resident Medicine Man. This time, he delivers a serving of pure hard techno action – pounding beats, tribal analogue riffs and dirty grooves. The style leans more toward minimalism than his usual hard trance-influenced sets, but he’s still bringing the energy all the same.

Ask Mick Beatle, and he will happily tell you that he would never have become a DJ if it were not for the influence of the Chemical Brothers. In celebration of his admiration for the breakbeat duo, Mr. Beatle serves up a massive megamix of Chemical Brothers action running over four hours long  – including classic remixes and rarities, even from their pre-Chemical Brothers days. This is an absolute monster!

This mix offers something a little different from Mick Beatle, as all the tracks predate the very first Havok event and represent the tunes that made him fall in love with techno. These were all classics in their time and were regularly belted out by Rob Fletcher at the Herbal Tea Party and by Megadog’s resident DJ, Evolution. The first track on the CD, Infernal Aftershock by Innersphere, was indeed the very first track Mick played in a club – and the story at the beginning of the mix is true: he nearly blew the rig!
