John Askew is without doubt one of the hottest tech/psy/trance djs in the the world right now!
From guest appearances on BBC Radio One, to being asked to host his own weekly show on London’s prestigious Kiss 100 John Askew is now enjoying the rewards of over a decade of consistently hard work.
Today John continues his residency at The Gallery where each month he can be seen rocking the club along side the likes of Paul van Dyk, Tiesto, Armin van Buuren, Ferry Corsten, Paul Oakenfold, Pete Tong and just about every other credible dj from the international circuit. John also holds a residency for Ministry of Sound’s worldwide tours which has seen him flying the flag for the world famous brand all over the globe.
In the past 3 years John has played on all the far corners of the globe including: North America, Canada, Australia, Russia, Brazil, Venezuela, Egypt, Eastern Europe, Sweden, Turkey, Cyprus, Malta, Malaysia, Singapore, Taiwan, Indonesia, Greece, Poland and of course all over the UK.
At the end of 2004 John signed to Judge Jules’s reputable Serious Management – who today continue to manage John’s dj bookings.
2005 was an incredible year for John, but 2006 has already moved things up a gear. As well as hammering out more remixes and original tracks for the usual labels, he has also started up a new side project under the name DRUM CULT with his old friend Zak Frost which incorporates a variety of new and exciting electronic influences. Their debut single “Radio” will be released in September on Dirt Crew Recordings. Also watch out for wicked DRUM CULT remixes coming soon on a variety of reputable labels – including the massive DRUM CULT mix of “It’s up to You” by Sasse on Moodmusic. |

| What was it you didnt like narcism? Just curious. Ive had John over before and ive seen him a few other times and he has always rocked it. I guess if your not a harder edge fan then maybe he wouldnt appeal as much, but he plays plenty of quality trance as well. |

the fact that he was on after kyau and albert and menno de jong probably had something to do with it, just could not compare to the sets that they banged out, also it was quite late at night he lost the crowd by a considerable amount (which i thought they left) but when stoneface n terminal came on the crowd came back... just didnt like what he played and wasnt impressed with him.... maybe given he plays on a different day and i had more than 3 hours sleep for the whole weekend i may have enjoyed him. |
