Pete Tong – Essential Selection – 07-09-2012

Pete Tong returns to the BBC airwaves with another sterling instalment of his Essential Selection radio show. Trailing through an array of such tracks as Dirty South and Alesso’s Beatport-topping ‘City Of Dreams‘, Mark Knight’s forthcoming ‘Can’t Get You Out Of My Head‘, Hot Natured’s ‘Benediction‘ and a brand-new Nicky Romero edit of ‘Point Blank‘, Fehrplay was the first Essential Contender of the week with his second Pryda Friends release ‘Nightride’, while Francesca Lombardo took the Essential New Tune slot with ‘Sofitel’.

Ahead of the September 29 release on Size Records, the final version of Steve Angello’s long-awaited ‘Yeah‘ saw it’s world premiere, with a further spin of Dan Ghenacia and Shonky’s ‘Close To The Edge‘ and new music from Rampa, Greenmoney, Ben Pearce and more making up yet another notably distinct two hour selection.

Following a chat with techno don Nicole Moudaber on this week’s 15 minutes of fame slot along with a collection of her impressively tailored studio cuts, Tong wrapped up the show with an exclusive, deep house guest mix from hotly tipped German Solomun.
