Simon Dunmore has been inducted into Pete Tong’s Hall of Fame.
Each week on his BBC Radio 1 show, Pete Tong nominates one dance music legend to be inducted into his Hall Of Fame. Last week it was the turn of Defected’s founder Simon Dunmore to join this hallowed collective.
As part of his induction, Dunmore picked out a number of career highlights – including getting his first job in the industry and starting his own label – while his track of choice was Guti & Luca Bachetti’s ‘Finale’ in celebration of the former artist’s forthcoming album Rompecorazones.
Tong described Defected as having had “a vintage year already” and as "a legendary label”, before highlighting Oliver $ & Jimi Jules’s ‘Pushing On’ as “this summer’s first big house anthem”.
You can check out the show in its entirety right here, and listen to the clip of Dunmore’s induction below:
