Dark Disco on The Roof | Pete Tong/ Cranks/ Total Fitness

It's fair to say that Pete Tong's history is intertwined with the history of acid house and electronic music itself. His career mirrors the story of dance music over the last 25 years. A true renaissance man, Pete has never been about one thing and 2011 represented a significant milestone. The past 18 months has seen Radio 1 hold a special 12 hour takeover on the station celebrating Pete's 20 years on their airwaves, he's released three new compilations, Future Underground, (mixed alongside Riva Starr) and All Gone Ibiza '11 (mixed alongside Felix Da Housecat), and most recently All Gone Ibiza '12 (mixed alongside Booka Shade) on Defected. In a year of landmarks, he also launched a Las Vegas residency at Encore Beach Club, re-launched his iconic FFRR label at Warner Music, headlined Glastonbury's dance tent and curated his own tent at the world-famous (and the UK's coolest) Bestival festival, launched the All Gone App, mixed Mixmag's covermount CD, and scored the music for a Cultural Olympiad Film.
Add to all this his constant touring, an ibizian residency, production work, remixes, music supervision, film scoring, and a weekly Radio 1 show, and he's without question the busiest man in dance.


Cranks is a Brooklyn-based DJ and producer. His techno-tinged tracks and foreboding yet flowing sounds can be heard in clubs throughout NYC and on his debut EP, released in July through the Safer At Night label. Cranks is gearing up for a busy year with more tunes on the horizon.
