The Church of Trance feat. John Askew and Scott Bond

トランスにおいては神的な存在として知られている「John Askew」（ジョン・アスキュー）。

その愛称はずばり、「ザ・ボス」。

彼が持つレーベル"VII"は7人のアーティスト（Astrix・John Askew・Simon Patterson・Sean Tyas・Freedom Fighters・Will Atkinson・Alex Di Stefano）からのみ

リリースをし、凄まじい勢いを誇る。

最近の作品『Raven』と『Black Coffee』は共にBeatportにて1位を記録し、

自身のテック・トランス・サウンドの新たなる進化を示した。

数々のオリジナルやリミックスに加え、

2つのアーティストアルバム、6つのコンピレーション、そしてBBC Radio OneのEssential Mixなど、

まさに究極のクレジットの持ち主である。

また、2001年より自身のレーベルDiscoverよりJohn O'Callaghan、Sean Tyas、Bryan Kearneyのキャリアを本格的にローンチさせ、

現代アップリフティング・トランスというジャンルが生まれる土壌を作った人物でもある。

EDC Las Vegas・Dreamstate So Cal・Luminosity・Creamfields・A State Of Tranceなどで

ヘッドライナーを担当した彼の次なる行き先！

それは、レジェンド級ライブ・ハウス、代官山UNIT！

風をも切るJohn Askewの鋭いテック・トランスが4月20日、東京で炸裂。

歴史に残る彼の来日を見逃すな！

John Askew. One of the most powerful forces in trance music today.

Known by fans the world over as simply "The Boss," his record label/brand "VII" is the hottest entity in the global dance scene today, exclusively releasing music from its seven artists of Astrix, Simon Patterson, John Askew, Sean Tyas, Freedom Fighters, Will Atkinson, and Alex Di Stefano.

From his early days with Discover Recordings to the countless hits out on Vandit, Armada, Perfecto Fluoro, Subculture, Monster Records, Mental Asylum, and more—John's production track record is nothing short of god-like. His last two singles on VII, “Raven” and “Black Coffee,” both hit #1 on Beatport, marking a new era for the evolution of John’s sound, widely recognized as the epitome of high-quality tech-trance.

So illustrious and far-reaching is his career, John's label of many years ago, Discover, is responsible for breaking such artists as John O'Callaghan, Sean Tyas, and Bryan Kearney—making him, in many ways, a progenitor of the uplifting side of trance we know today.

Having performed at EDC Las Vegas, Dreamstate So Cal, Luminosity, Creamfields, and A State Of Trance—for the first time ever—John is poised to deliver his trademark, razor-sharp sound to the Tokyo scene. Experience a historic night in a dark room, crafted by an artist that has captivated fans and the industry on a profound level.
