It's All Gone Pete Tong is a 2004 British comedic drama film directed by Michael Dowse. The film stars Paul Kaye as Frankie Wilde, a legendary Ibiza-based DJ who suddenly becomes deaf. The film is loosely based on the real-life experiences of Frankie Wilde himself. Frankie is a EDM (electronic dance music) superstar who is living the life of luxury, throwing parties every night, and doing drugs with his friends. Frankie is renowned in the industry for his DJ skills, with his signature sound and style drawing crowds of fans to his shows. Everything is going great until Frankie discovers that he is losing his hearing, which is a devastating blow to his career.

The film follows Frankie's journey as he tries to come to terms with his hearing loss and rebuild his life. Frankie initially reacts to his hearing loss in denial, refusing to accept it and continuing to DJ despite the advice of his doctor. As his condition worsens, he becomes depressed and isolated, turning to drugs and alcohol to cope. In one particularly poignant scene, Frankie uses a special system of vibrations to continue DJing, but the experience ultimately leaves him exhausted and feeling like he is no longer in control of his own life.

Frankie eventually hits rock bottom and begins to lose everything he has worked for, including his friends, his money, and his career. However, the film does not end on a tragic note, as Frankie eventually finds redemption and learns to accept his new reality. He meets a woman named Penelope (Beatriz Batarda) who teaches him sign language and how to communicate in new ways. Frankie also discovers a hidden talent for producing music and starts a new career as a producer, which ultimately leads to him becoming more successful than ever before.

It's All Gone Pete Tong is a film that deals with some heavy subject matter but does so in a way that is both entertaining and thought-provoking. The film's soundtrack is made up of classic Ibiza dance tracks that capture the spirit of the island perfectly. The film also features cameos from real-life DJs like Carl Cox and Paul Oakenfold, which add an air of authenticity to the proceedings.

The film is anchored by a standout performance from Paul Kaye, who brings Frankie Wilde's story to life with wit, energy, and pathos. Kaye's portrayal of a man facing both physical and emotional challenges is both hilarious and heartbreaking at times, and it is impossible not to feel sympathy for his character as he goes through his struggles.
