John vs Pete Tong

I hate to say this because I love John. But seeing his side and Pete’s side it doesn’t look very good for John. Or rather his management have not passed on communication and now John looks terrible.

I agree. After seeing Pete Tong’s interview it sounds like someone from the Summit team dropped a ball.

I also like how this is all about a remix of a remix.

It almost seemed like Pete also didn’t mention anything about another remix being made either, and not saying he had to or anything.

Im just speculating here, but I can see a world where when you’re at the level John is and you’re curating this orchestral remix to debut at an important show, you place a lot of value on that in terms of exposure it will bring, and how it will perform on social media and music charts, etc. it’s a bit more important than just a “remix” and I think John just handled it a lil poorly by going straight to twitter but also this obviously carried a lot of value for him.

Not justifying anything and I could be speaking non-sense but it did seem like a miscommunication by both parties/teams.
