Details: Fresh from hosting parties at London’s Ministry of Sound and announcing a new weekly night at the White’s Isle’s legendary Eden, the debut soundtrack from the globe trotting veteran’s spanking new brand Wonderland has landed. With heavyweights Groove Armada hosting Eden’s back room and a line up packed with the biggest names in house, breaks and techno, Pete Tong’s Wonderland is on track for an undoubtedly epic summer.
Across two CDs remaining ever faithful to its house roots, Wonderland’s debut album boasts a smattering of upfront cuts as Pete calls in favours only he can! The first instalment kicks into action with the slow building beats of Prydz’s ‘Europa’ followed seamlessly by a hard hit of deep house as Leftfield’s intense and unremitting ‘Not Forgotten’ wastes no time in driving the mix relentlessly forward. The dark and brooding grooves of Shonky Zero’s ‘Time Skylark’ provide a neat contrast to the electro house vibes of Skylark’s ‘Interlater’ and take us midway through Tong’s first instalment. Wink’s funkier ‘Stay Out all Night’ allows a short respite before Pete rocks us with a retouch of ‘Radio Slave’s ‘Grindhouse’ and the recent huge essential new tune ‘Sample Whore’ by Irish upstarts The Japanese Popstars before wrapping things up with Tong and Spoon’s hard hitting Gas Face.
The second hit of Wonderland bounces into being with Dr. Kucho!’s ‘Best Monday of my life’ which blends into a bopping Gold Ryan and Tapesh remix of Syke’n’ Sugarstarr’s epic ‘No Love Lost’ and it all goes a bit arms in the air! Ananda Project’s ‘Where the Music Takes You’ brings the mix into darker territory tearing through hard hitters like WTF’s ‘Chicken’ a deep and visceral dub of Joe T Vannelli’s ‘Harlem’ and of course Prydz’s ‘Pjanoo’.
Tyrrel’s ‘LaLaLaLaLaLa’ smashes into the mix making way for the bouncing electro sounds of The Whitest Boy’s ‘Golden Cage’ and blending into the guitar riffs of Carlo Dell Anese & Fabio Castro’s Monday before wrapping things up with the freaked out synths of best newcomer Paul Woolford’s ‘Heirbus’.
It’s a tasty slice of what you can expect in Ibiza all summer long as Pete and his faultless selection of hand picked DJs head to Ibiza to lay on the mother of all parties.
