Miami is one of the hottest cities to experience dance music and now that Evolution 93.5 Miami is here with EDM tastemaker Pete Tong, the party wont stop.
Ive been coming to Miami for over fifteen years to DJ and attend Marchs Winter Music Conference and Ultra Week, said Pete Tong. Its one of the most important dates in the DJ year, and the City of Miami has always been a special and progressive market for dance music.
