“I count myself very lucky to be there with millions of people every Friday as all we start the weekend together with my Radio 1 show. According those clever numbers people Essential Selection is one of the most listened to shows at Radio 1, both live and on-line with millions of listeners weekly around the globe. It is also syndicated in over 25 countries worldwide including Italy, Dubai, Canada, and the USA.

In terms of DJing I play clubs and festivals worldwide, gigs I hold dear to my heart included Pacha-Ibiza, Tennax-Florence and Space-Miami. As a producer I have assembled the music for movie soundtracks such as The Beach, Human Traffic and 24 Hour Party People and produced my own material under various guises. I am also the name sake to the film Its All Gone Pete Tong which was released last year. Stepping into the present I have entered the world of Podcasts and I’m loving it! My Tongcasts have held the number 1 spot and are downloaded by thousands of people. I also present Fast Trax - a weekly show for mobile network 3G.

I teamed up with Universal Records last year to launch a new Essential Selection Album series. I felt the time was right to return to the world of compilations as dance music and the clubbing scene has been revitalized in the last few years. I truly believe from what Im hearing and seeing that we are in a very exciting and creative period. So far The Essential Selection and Essential Classics albums have been released, with an Essential Mix CD to follow.

I will undertake my fourth season of Pure Pacha, Friday nights @ Pacha Ibiza this summer starting on the 9th of June. Pure Pacha combines musical quality and glamour, with aspiration and escapism. It’s a wonderland for grown ups who don’t want to grow up just yet.....! I also bring the Pure brand to bi-monthly parties at Ministry of Sound in London..."
