Jon O'Bir
“This is how trance is meant to be: beautiful bosh that takes you to another place” Mixmag feature February 2003.


A lot can happen in 12 months, for Jon O’Bir, 2002 started off with him mixing in his bedroom like thousands of others dreaming of the big time, but as the hours counted down to 2003 his dream had come true and he was warming up the Godskitchen crowd for Fergie.

It all started back in September 2002, when he entered along with 300 other hopeful djs, the PaSSion and M8 magazine competition and won. He was then offered the chance to play for Motion in Derby and also to show off his talents on the Internet radio station, bpm. With his style of progressive/uplifting trance and expertly blended mixes, he was soon noticed by Godskitchen, who were looking for a new young DJ to offer a residency and the prospect of fledging career as Britain's next DJ sensation.

"It is quite literally unbelievable, I’ve loved mixing since I brought my first set of decks two years ago and now I get to do it in clubs all over the country to thousands of people"

When Fergie heard all the interest in Jon he asked him to join him on his Radio 1 show. His half hour set, live all around the world went down a storm and Fergie was astounded by his support via emails and message boards and envisaged big things for Jon. Fergie has been right behind Jon and included him in his ‘Fergies Fledglings’ feature on his radio 1 website. Jon has also been given the opportunity to flex his mixing muscle with an exclusive mix for Judge Jule’s international radio show.

2004 had been an immense success for Jon, continuing to impress the Gods faithful with the residency at Godskitchen, and developing an army of new followers at every club he plays. Domestically he has played at every major club you could care to mention, whilst this year has proved his first (and well received) opportunity into pushing his sound on the international scene. Touching down at destinations in Cyprus, Hong Kong, Canada, Greece to name but a few. Jon will soon have the opportunity to bring in the New Year; playing the midnight set in New York before Trance maestro Paul Van Dyk takes to the decks, the perfect way to end of fantastic year! Bring 2005 on!

Jon is one of the leading djs at the moment that is carving the new face of the trance genre. One of the key aspects that differentiate Jon from many of the other DJs in the trance genre is Jon’s effort to incorporate upfront trance productions by unsigned producers.
In terms of his own productions, Jon’s first collaboration with similarly impressive upstart Gareth Emery (GTR) in the form of ‘Escapade’ proved a success and found flavour with the likes of PVD and Tiesto. Jon then went back into the studio with Gareth to complete their most successful collaboration to date ‘Bouncebackability’ and the 3rd single is now in the making. Jon has also been busy working with his favourite producer, Airwave with a track titled Promise set for release early 2006.

2004 has been an immense success for Jon, continuing to impress the Gods faithful with the residency at Godskitchen, and developing an army of new followers at every club he plays. Domestically he has played at every major club you could care to mention, whilst this year has proved his first (and well received) opportunity into pushing his sound on the international scene. Touching down at destinations in Cyprus, Hong Kong, Canada, Greece to name but a few. One of Jon’s biggest gig’s to date was New Years Eve 2004 when he saw in the New Year playing in New York to 5,000 people alongside one of his inspirers Paul van Dyk.

2005 has seen Jon rise from strength to strength, It started with Jon appearing on the world famous Essential Mix in January and then being offered a place on Radio 1’s new show The Residency, joining the likes of Eddie Halliwell and Nic Fancuilli in the world famous Radio 1 studios. This gave him a great lift and extended his name to new fans across the globe and also led to him playing at the massive club Space, in Ibiza.

Jon’s love for Trance music made him create his own record label ‘Conspiracy Recordings’ alongside up & coming U.K producer Rob Stevenson a.k.a Activa. The 1st release will be out late 2005 and he will also be releasing his 1st solo production ‘Effectual’ on the Conspiracy Recordings label. It’s been a massive year for Jon, more of the same expected for years to come.
