right, I know you're all thinking "wtf have I got an email with Pete Tongs name in the title for?"
well, get this. I haven't listened to Pete Tong for years, at least 4 I reckon. so, I'm at my mates house on Friday night, and radio one is on. We're just about to go to the pub, and he starts playing this track.. my ears prick up a bit, because it doesn't sound like the usual fayre from Pete Tong, so me and my mate hang on a little to see what the track is he's playing. I can't remember the title, but it was half decent..... so then, next up, he drops Joris Voorn! I'm pretty surprised at that - I presume it's one off Joris Voorn's Keynote 12"? I'm unaware of other Joris Voorn stuff. so after playing two pretty nice tracks, he plays Dave Clarke's new single (which is horrible btw), which still represents a big swing in sound for him. so I'm wondering. Pete Tong represents the sound of commercial clubland right? Is this whats going on? are commercial dj's playing underground techno tracks? what with Rolando etc on Fergie, and now this, I'm starting to wonder whats going on....! and, to top it all off, I see my mate on Saturday, and he says his mix of Scruff has been on daytime rotation on radio one for the past three weeks! whats going on folks? or is it me going a little bonkers? Is the world starting to take an interest in 'techno' music? _________________________________________________________________ --------------------- End of message text -------------------- This e-mail is sent by the above named in their individual, non-business capacity and is not on behalf of PricewaterhouseCoopers.
