Pete Tong Will Kick Of BBC Radio 1’S Essential Mix Live

Pete Tong is set to bring his world-famous, 20-year-running Essential Mix series over to the North American region in 2016 for a handful of live events! The series will start off with an event based in L.A. at the famous Exchange Club. The beginning of the series will be on January 22nd with Richie Hawtin on January 22nd. Tong’s mix series has impressed a lot of the EDM artists currently thriving today, and with Hawtin, a true Techno O.G., things will undoubtedly go well.

Below, you can see Pete Tong’s famous quote. If you would like to pick up the tickets for the debut performance, click here.

“The Essential Mix has always been about championing what’s new and next. So much has happened to electronic music in America in the last five years, and much of that change has been born out of LA, and the community of artists and industry professionals that live here. We’re incredibly lucky to kick start this American series with Richie, who has been such an influential artist in the story of American techno music.” – Pete Tong
