Unscripted Series Follows Biggest DJ in the World All-New Original Episodes Premiering October 17, 2016
FM (www.fm.tv), Fuse Media’s new network that celebrates the culture of music, has ordered 10 episodes of Tiësto's In The Booth. The first two new original episodes of the docuseries featuring the GRAMMY Award-winning DJ/producer will premiere as a simulcast on both FM and its sister network Fuse (www.fuse.tv) beginning October 17, 2016 at 11 p.m. ET/PT. Following this back-to-back telecast, future new episodes will air exclusively on FM every Monday night at 11 p.m.
Each 15-minute episode offers viewers a behind-the-scenes look and VIP pass into the exclusive world of one of the most popular DJs on the planet, Tiësto. From Los Angeles and Las Vegas to Paris and beyond, rising DJ stars Mike Williams and Don Diablo are also brought along for the excitement.
To date, Tiësto has one of the most-subscribed-to music channels across YouTube, averaging approximately 500,000 video views per day, 11 million views per month, and a staggering 200 million-plus total views. His official website, tiesto.com, receives over 400,000 visitors per month and his podcast, ClubLife, which will be celebrating its 500th episode with the monumental ClubLife500 event at the Ziggo Dome in Amsterdam this October, is the No. 1 artist podcast in the world with over 300,000 weekly subscribers.
“Dance music continues to be one of the most popular forms of music, particularly among our multicultural Millennial audience, and we are honored to be partnering with such a legendary talent,” said Fuse Media Vice President of Original Content Michael Dugan. “Tiësto’s connection with his audience is undeniable, and we look forward to bringing his fans behind-the-scenes this fall.”
“After three seasons building a loyal fan base across multiple digital platforms, with more than 100MM views on YouTube and through Tiësto’s social and media footprint, we will now expand Tiësto’s In The Booth to be a true cross-platform series on FM. This will effectively take it from an online series to a multi-channel broadcast and digital event. We couldn’t be more excited to be at the forefront of the TV and digital convergence with this project and we’re grateful to have Fuse Media as a partner who shares our vision that great programming is great programming, across platforms,” said William H. Masterson III, co-founder, Believe Entertainment Group.
Tiësto’s In The Booth initially launched as an online series, and made its television debut on FM, with its first three seasons airing on the network beginning last fall. It is executive-produced by Tiësto, Dan Goodman and William H. Masterson III of Believe Entertainment Group.
