Tong
(Essential Selection / BBC Radio 1
/ UK)
As a DJ, not only is Tong
is enjoying increasing international
popularity, especially in the USA,
plus Australia and the Far East as
part of a new worldwide tour, he is
also returning to Pure Pacha in Ibiza
this summer for his residency. As
a broadcaster who brought dance to
the masses via his Essential Selection
show at Radio One - he continues to
have one of the most listened to shows
at Radio 1 both live and on-line with
millions of listeners weekly not just
in the UK but worldwide too. As a
producer, Tong is set to release some
new material in various guises plus
some film soundtracks in the not too
distant future. As an innovator, Tong
has just completed the world’s
very first collection of TV-style
music shows, aired weekly direct to
mobile phones. And as an icon, Tong
has been the inspiration behind a
new feature film “It’s
All Gone Pete Tong”.
In the meantime, the ever-active Pete
still sees his vocation as he did
when he started out, playing other
people’s records to get an audience
dancing. “We need to constantly
remember why people want to come to
clubs - which is simply to have a
great time and feel the music.”
With Tong behind the decks, there’s
little worry of failure on that score.''
