A PEMBROKESHIRE DJ and music producer is celebrating a major career breakthrough after having his new track signed by London dance label Perfect Havoc.

Josh Oughton, 29, who performs as J Flow, will release his new single Another Lie on all major platforms on Friday, July 3.

Josh, who is from Pembrokeshire and still lives locally, began DJing in 2018 and has been performing professionally for the past two years. He has also spent several years learning music production, before deciding to take it seriously over the last two years.

He said Perfect Havoc discovered him after he sent demos directly to the label.

“Having my track signed to Perfect Havoc is a massive achievement in my career,” Josh said. “It gives me the potential to get booked for bigger shows and festivals.”

He described Another Lie as a high-energy dance track with “pure summer vibes”.

“The story behind it is constantly being lied to and me being able to walk away from them lies,” he said.

Josh added that the achievement still has not fully sunk in.

“To me personally, it still doesn’t feel real,” he said. “I never thought I would have got as far as having my music signed to a label, so it means the world to me.”

Perfect Havoc is a London-based dance music label which has released music from a number of high-profile dance artists, including Joel Corry.

Josh said further plans are in the pipeline, although he is not yet able to reveal details.

A major exhibition featuring work inspired by the Pembrokeshire coast will open in St Davids this summer, bringing internationally recognised contemporary art to the heart of the National Park.

A MAJOR exhibition of work by Helen Chadwick is to open at Oriel y Parc, National Park Discovery Centre, in St Davids this month.

Helen Chadwick: Body and Landscape will run from Saturday, July 11, 2026, until Sunday, January 10, 2027. Admission is free.

The exhibition will include work from Chadwick’s Viral Landscapes series, which was inspired by the Pembrokeshire Coast National Park. It will be the first time the works have been shown in the landscape that helped shape them.

The exhibition has been developed through Oriel y Parc’s partnership with Amgueddfa Cymru and is organised as part of ARTIST ROOMS, the touring programme run by Tate and the National Galleries of Scotland.

Chadwick, who died suddenly in 1996 at the age of 42, is regarded as one of the most radical and inventive British artists of her generation. Her work crossed sculpture, photography and installation, often using unusual materials to explore ideas about the body, identity, gender and the natural world.

The Pembrokeshire connection is central to the new exhibition. Chadwick created Viral Landscapes between 1988 and 1989 after receiving an Artists in National Parks commission from the Victoria and Albert Museum.

As part of that work, she walked the coast path between Fishguard and Castlemartin, photographing the point where land and sea meet. The resulting series reflected both the physical landscape and its powerful effect on the artist’s senses and sense of self.

Bryony White, Senior Curator at Amgueddfa Cymru, said: “Helen Chadwick was a true original. Through her radical and singular approach to art and ideas, she produced a body of work which retains its relevance and power, even today.

“We’re delighted to partner with Oriel y Parc to present this exhibition in Pembrokeshire where, for the first time, visitors will be able to experience and enjoy some of Chadwick’s Viral Landscapes in the landscape which inspired them.”

The exhibition will also include Chadwick’s well-known installation Piss Flowers from 1991-92, along with photographic works from Tate’s collection. These works were recently shown as part of ARTIST ROOMS displays at Tate Modern in London and the National Galleries of Scotland in Edinburgh.

James Parkin, Director of Nature and Tourism at Pembrokeshire Coast National Park Authority, said: “Helen Chadwick’s work has a powerful connection with Pembrokeshire, and it is very special to be able to bring pieces from her Viral Landscapes series back to the landscape that helped shape them.

“This exhibition reflects the strength of Oriel y Parc as a nationally significant gallery space and the importance of our partnership with Amgueddfa Cymru, Tate and the National Galleries of Scotland.

“It gives visitors a rare opportunity to experience major contemporary art in one of the most remarkable protected landscapes in the UK.”

ARTIST ROOMS presents the work of international artists in solo exhibitions drawn from a national touring collection jointly owned by Tate and the National Galleries of Scotland. Since 2009, around 220 exhibitions have been shown at nearly 100 museums and galleries across the UK.

Helen Chadwick: Body and Landscape will be on display at Oriel y Parc, St Davids, from July 11, 2026, to January 10, 2027. Admission is free.
