That first show, a collaboration with Buckley and the 65-piece Heritage Orchestra, took six months of rehearsals. “I wanted to add gravitas to the history of dance and electronic music,” Tong explained in 2017. “I plan each show just like a DJ set,” he continued. “I wanted to reflect the night time side of Ibiza and the daytime side as well, so I wanted the show to ebb and flow.”“It was never a plan to do any more” but after footage of the show went viral, Tong took the gig to The O2 arena the following summer for a sold-out gig.
