John Askew is without doubt one of the hottest tech-trance DJ/producers in the world today. The luminary responsible for epic tracks like ‘Vellum’, ‘The Door’, ‘New Dimension’, ‘Chime’, ‘Fade to Black’, ‘Bored of You, Bored of Me’, and the legend behind no less than two critically acclaimed full-length artist albums (‘Lower the Tone and ‘Z List Uber Star’), it’s little wonder that his arsenal of tunes effortlessly grace the CD wallets of the world’s biggest trance stars. Be reminded of his powers at Godskitchen 2011!
