Pete Tong's Essential New Tune
This is Real (Disappear)(feat. Eyelar)
PARISI & Fred again..

out now
Comment
"So it comes fresh off the back of Fred again..'s final USB002 show at the Alexandra Palace. Talk about FOMO, where Daft Punk's Thomas Bangalter, once again, steps out as a surprise guest during his set - looks insane on socials. So even though those shows are done, there's no signs of this man slowing down as he's back with new music alongside his very regular collaborators, the Italian brothers PARISI. If you look deep in the credits of many of Fred's records released over the last few years, you'll see PARISI name. This track first surfaced during Fred's Green Room set in Rome, and the reaction was immediate and incredible. So they decided to put it out. This week's ENT is 'This is Real (Disappear)' from PARISI and Fred again.."
This week's featured Essential New Tune was featured in last week’s Friday show on BBC Radio 1. Listen again and forward to 31.13 here
