Essential Selection from the 1990s

Rare recordings of the best radio show of the 1990s ...

Whilst there are many of Pete Tong’s Saturday night ESSENTIAL MIX episodes already uploaded to YouTube, there are almost none from the 1990s of his Friday night’s ESSENTIAL SELECTION show.  

So, I’ve uploaded these episodes from my old audio tape collection to share the nostalgia of such a legendary show, and to celebrate the role Pete Tong played in the explosion of sub genres that underground house music spawned in the 1990s, and to ensure these era-defining episodes are not lost from the annals of time. 

Also, amazingly, Pete Tong’s Friday night show is still going strong, you can catch the legend himself and his fresh new episodes every week here …
