Pete Tong’s weekly radio show titled Evolution is set to be expanded to a wider audience with the announcement that 80 stations across the US will now be streaming it.

Each week, Tong showcases the best music from the biggest DJs and producers in the dance music scene from across the world. The format of the show includes Tong’s essential new tune of the week, guest mixes and a countdown of the USA’s favorite dance tracks.

The BBC1 radio host quoted “It’s been amazing to see how America has embraced Evolution on iHeart, and on FM in Miami and Boston,” stated Tong.  “By partnering with Premiere to develop Evolution with Pete Tong, we will be giving more terrestrial stations a great entry point for broadcasting EDM content on-air, and a platform to break and showcase more Electronic Music across America.”

Does this make him one of the most powerful people in dance music?
