| I notice that Oakenfold plays a lot of tracks by an artist named John B. Most of these tracks are bad ass, like the Electrofreek track. Who is this guy? I have been unable to find any information or anything on vinyl for this artist. |

| John B is a legend and one of the leading dnb djs and producers in the world. If you can't find anything about him you're not looking well enough. |

| Oakenfold heard John B from a Mixmag cover CD "Trance n' Bass - Mixed by John B", about 6 months ago. Oakenfold rang Mixmag who duly sent him some of John B's productions, and i believe he's now signed to Perfecto. Hence the number of John B tunes Oakenfold is spinning. |

| my friend actually had John B here a few months ago, and I had the pleasure of speaking with him. He told me that Oakie actually asked him to do a 4/4 mix of Mercury skies. Which is one of the records thats on Great Wall along with Electro Freak |

Thats easy.
John b did 4/4's of some of his songs. Oakenfold has also done some remix's of john b's stuff.
Not to mention, Oakenfold has always played DNB in his sets. Its called 'Intro' and 'outro' ;[
