Still speechless about the show. I knew I was going for a ride, but my God, I had no idea what I was getting myself into. John took us to heaven, hell, and multiple dimensions inbetween. Not only is his EQing, programming, and mixing flawless, he's a great engineer. I've never heard anyone (except M.I.K.E.) use that Xone 464 and make it sound so clear. He doesn't build to a few climaxes like an Armin or a Sasha set, he sets you up with a mellow intro track, and hammers away with every track, creating multiple crescendo after another; absolutely no filler tracks ladies and gentlemen-- just relentless beating after beating. John is the epitome of what "trance" music still stands for in my opinion. He does his job and he does it well-- to get the crowd to move their asses. On top of that, he's a pleasant person to be around: funny, charming, easy-going. I have to agree with Sarah and say this was one of the best gigs I've ever been to-- I'm still blown away.
Ruben, thanks for that tracklist buddy. I didn't know playing a few JOOF and psy tracks for you would change the way you saw the genre forever. All for the better And it's so crazy how JOOF called you! How awesome!
Cheers,

I think you hit the nail on the head with that Ref. One of the reasons I continue to be blown away with John"00"Fleming year in and year out, is that he is the complete package. We can talk about his technical/mixing skills or his track selection, both of which are sublime, but its really his personality and musical philosophy, that when combined with his afforementioned, catapult him into a pantheon all by himself.
