   From the article:

   Earlier this week we shared the good news that Justice would be carting their party jams all around the globe this winter and into spring on tour. But along with that came some bad news: a mix Justice put together for Fabric had been rejected by the London club giant. Quoth Justice’s Xavier de Rosnay, “They weren’t ready for something like this.”

   Friends and loved ones of Justice, however, decidedly were. According to the duo’s publicist, de Rosnay and partner-in-anthem-making Gaspard Augé spun their dismissed mix into a bona fide holiday gift-giving goodie, complete with the new title Justice Xmas Mix. In conjunction with Ed Banger, they sent copies out last month to those lucky enough to make the Justice Christmas card list.

   And if you weren’t that lucky, well, I understand there are a few reproductions of the mix floating around in cyberspace. But you didn’t hear that from me.

   Thanks to reader John O’Callaghan for the tip.

   What’s more, it appears the original mix was rejected due to insufficient length more than anything else. Justice PR notes that Fabric wanted a longer mix, but Augé and de Rosnay weren’t so keen on padding out their perfect playlist with unnecessary filler. An aesthetic disparity may have come into play as well. Let’s just call it creative differences and carry on, shall we?

   Carry on, of course, to those inevitable tour dates, available for your eyes only after the jump.
