Planet Perfecto was a dance music supergroup created in 1997 by Paul Oakenfold, Ian Masterson, and Jake Williams, and was signed under Oakenfold's label, Perfecto Records.
Musical career
The group's first single, "Georgie Girl" (1997), failed to enter the UK charts. In contrast, "Not Over Yet '99" climbed to #16 on the UK Singles Chart in August 1999. This song was a remix of Grace's original "Not Over Yet," co-produced with Matt Darey, representing the group's initial success among four charting singles. Notably, Oakenfold had been involved with Grace prior to Planet Perfecto.
Each member brought prior industry experience: Williams performed as JX, Masterson worked under Flexifinger, and Oakenfold was already an influential DJ and producer with numerous hits. After 2001, Planet Perfecto stopped releasing new tracks, with all members focusing on their solo careers.
