Pete Tong's Essential New Tune
Nothing That I Need
Von Boch
September
out now
Comment
"After several years working behind the scenes as a producer for some of the biggest dance acts, Von Boch launched his new artist project in 2024. He's found champions in the likes of Diplo, Black Coffee, Keinemusik and more, and has lots of exciting collaborations to come. We previewed this last week and it got a massive thumbs up. So I am pleased to say this week's ENT is 'Nothing That I Need' by Von Boch."
This week's featured Essential New Tune was featured in last week’s Friday show on BBC Radio 1. Listen again and forward to 26.46 here.
