I agree it was filmed well and I enjoyed the humour alot

That part where they show his muzik video is great really looks like those cheezy ass trance videos

Paul Kaye did a good job acting in it as well

It is cockney rhyming slang. Its all gone a bit 'Pete Tong'=Its all gone a bit 'wrong'.
Another example: Carl Cox = record box.

And its not based on a true story- its a send up, and they put out a record under the name Frankie Wilde and made up some other stuff to try and confuse gullible people. Which worked

i've heard a bit about that rhyming slang at my british studies classes... my teacher mentioned that it's usually used by people at East End in London, right?

however i find it a bit difficult to decode it...

You're not the only one, there is an english film (lock stock and two smoking barrels) with a scene spoken entirely in cockney rhyming slang. They put subtitles in for all the other english people not from the east end of london

EDIT

The film in question, i really didn't enjoy it. I was really keen to see it because it was a film about a DJ with a supposedly great soundtrack. Soudtrack was pap, film was pap, i lost 2hours of my life
