Tiesto goes deep for his BBC Radio 1 Essential Mix

Tiesto decided to go more underground for his latest Essential Mix effort which may have surprised more than a few. But Tiesto is known to flip the switch at times during his career so to see him go to the deeper side of the electronic dance music spectrum and explore what that world has to offer is something I enjoy about the Dutch legend. It's 2 hours long and features tracks from the likes of Joris Voorn, My Digital Enemy, and more: 

Tracklist: 

1. Tube & Berger – Set It Off

Ben UFO, aka Ben Thomson, is the latest DJ to be invited to mix the 2 hour long BBC Radio 1 Essential Mix. Why should you tune in? Because he made it as a DJ without having any productions of his own. This is a rare accomplishment as the importance on creating your own productions seems like the only way for young talent these days to get noticed. So if I were you, I'd tune in and find out why Ben UFO is such a good curator of the U.K underground sound.
