As his original tune "Something About You" impressively dances its way across the million-play mark on SoundCloud and an impending live Australian tour gets underway, rising young star Hayden James managed to find a spare moment to record a stellar mix for the Smirnoff Sound Collective series.Joining the ranks of buzzing acts like Flume, George Maple, and indie-tronica fave Chet Faker, Hayden has meshed well into the eclectic Future Classic label that has been crucial in establishing a vibrant and unique dance music scene in Australia. As will be obvious from the mix here, James shares the imprint's knack for pairing indie-leading house music with an array of other sounds and emotions.Hayden's Sound Collective mix is populated by his own groove-laden original, as well as other gems from the likes of Jamie XX, Lido, Caribou and Bonobo. It's a seamless showcasing of his selector status as well as one hell of a fun listen.TRACKLIST:
