Ok so this isn’t really a Fabric Live mix but it could have been.

So here’s the story: Fabric ask Justice to put together a mix compilation for their popular Fabric Live series. They would have been following in the footsteps of the most excellent Cut Copy and Spank Rock mixes. So Justice decided to put together something a little different, something that would stand out from the crowd instead of just another fucking mixtape featuring all of the songs we have heard a billion times in the last 6 months.

“We didn’t want to do just another boring mix, so we put together a selection of tunes we absolutely love, mainly weird disco tracks and French novelty acts. But Fabric turned it down. They weren’t ready for something like this. Maybe we’ll put the mix out ourselves. People should really hear it, they’d be surprised.” – Xavier de Rosnay

So they released the mix themselves and dubbed it the Xmas mix. And here it is. Enjoy it, it is ten times better than you will ever be.
