This week on Hardhouse History, Paul Glazby sits down with one of the most unique and unforgettable personalities to ever cross over into the hard dance scene, Pete Bennett.

For many, Pete first burst onto the radar through Big Brother in 2006, but this episode goes far beyond reality TV fame. It's a deep dive into the life behind the headlines, including Pete's experience living with Tourette's and the complicated reality of public perception. From moments of acceptance to frustration over misunderstandings, Pete speaks openly about what it's like to navigate life in the spotlight with a condition that is often misrepresented.

From there, the conversation shifts into music, creativity and Pete's ongoing connection to the scene. Whether it's new tracks, upcoming releases or gigs tied to labels like Tidy Trax, Pete brings his signature chaotic energy and humour to everything he does. There's also insight into his creative world beyond music, including documentaries, acting work and his latest project, giving fans a closer look at "This is Pete", a raw and unfiltered glimpse into his life.

What makes this episode stand out is Pete himself. Unpredictable, hilarious and brutally honest, he moves between topics at lightning speed, from serious reflections to completely off-the-wall moments that only he could deliver. It’s a reminder that hard house has always been about characters as much as it has about music.

This is not your typical DJ interview; it's something far more human.
