This was a 3 hour set I played at After Hour Power - the long running legendary after hours party at The Palace (now Avalon) in Hollywood Los Angeles. Good times with good friends. 

It was this recording that got me my residency at The Gallery at Turnmills. When Danny the promoter heard it he asked me to leave my residency at MOS and join the Gallery - which of course I did overnight. Ironic therefore that 3 years later the Gallery would move to MOS!

Fun times at the massive ASOT 600 show in Den Dosh - Netherlands. 

JOHN ASKEW - LIVE @ ASOT 600 Den Bosh 06.04.2013

Certainly in my "top 5 gigs of all time"........maybe number 1.......
Without exception my favourite club in the world. 
Nothing comes close to Niceto and the Magic clubbers - and this night was beyond special. Goosebumps thinking about it.............  

JOHN ASKEW - 5 HOUR SET LIVE MAGIC 13 BIRTHDAY NICETO 09.03.13

If you like it hard and fast then check out what I was playing back in 1996. I still have some old tapes to dig out of my mum's attic where I think there are some of my old mixes dating back to 93/94 but for now this is the earliest recording I have. Such an amazing era - when Final Frontier at Club UK in London was the epicentre of my life (which it had been since 94). From the perspective of being a clubber on the dance floor - nothing since has ever come close. Everything I play today draws inspiration from my heroes of that era - Billy Nasty, Gayle San, DJ Dag, CJ Bolland, Sven Vath, Carl Cox, Jeff Mills, Laurent Garnier, Dino Psaras, Tin Tin. Universe parties were where it was at. RIP Paul Shurey.

JOHN ASKEW - LIVE AT LUMINOSITY VS PERFECTO FLUORO @ WESTERUNIE - ADE AMSTERDAM 16-10-2013

Here's a mixtape I recorded in 1997. It was the first "volume" in a 3 volume hard trance series I made for mates. The sound quality isn't great because it's ripped from cassette. Oh the memories............

JOHN ASKEW - MIXTAPE - HARD TRANCE VOL 1 - 1997

Loved playing this extended set in NYC back in June 2013. I'm always apprehensive about playing in the US as I'm not sure what sure a commercialised destination will make of a lot of the stuff I like to play, but I always seem to have a great gig in NYC and this was certainly one of them. Wicked crowd, great sound system. Cool intimate vibe and the opportunity to play an open to close set - building it up from nothing to a fast and furious crescendo. The track playing at the very start was something the club put on before I started as I got caught in traffic and was 5 mins late for the the club opening. 

JOHN ASKEW - 5 HR SET - INTO THE RABBIT HOLE LIVE ESSCALA NYC - JUNE 2013

I have always been a massive fan of GOA trance since back in the early to mid 90's. Searching through all of the hundreds of mix tapes I made in the 90s this seems to be the only one I can find of all the GOA mixes I recorded. Sound quality isn't great is it was ripped from cassette, but you get the vibe of what it was all about.
