About PTDJA
Pete Tong DJ Academy is where the next generation of DJs and producers learns the craft, taught by some of the biggest names in electronic music. We're building a marketing and content operation to match: ambitious, fast, and obsessed with quality. Our content reaches people who genuinely love this culture, and we hold ourselves to a high bar because they can tell the difference.
