John Askew’s second appearance at Amplified is to celebrate the release of 'DS International Volume 2' mixed by the man himself, always one to push things forward and not go for the norm, John has crammed a staggering 47 tracks into the double cd; an amazing feat for a DJ mix compilation! With tracks, re-edits and remixes seamlessly crafted into over two energetic hours of tech to peak time trance from the likes of Paul van Dyk, John O'Callaghan, Temple One, Activa, Aly & Fila and of course John himself, this is a master class in technical, crowd pleasing mixing and track selection. This compilation is a brilliant example of what John will be delivering to the Amplified crowd in November!

Production wise John’s been busy in the studio with his recent release 'Bad Apple and the top notch remix of Paul Van Dyk’s 'The Other Side' on Vandit.

Will Holland is regarded as one of the most influential young stars in trance today as the founder of one of the world’s leading trance labels Enhanced Recordings and with residencies at Gatecrasher and Digital Society.

With the world’s leading dance music magazine Mixmag stating ‘the future of trance is in safe hands’ during a recent interview with Will, the young Leeds based DJ/Producer with an international tour diary and four international radio shows to boot continues to push the sound he loves forward. As a producer Will has seen success on many of the leading labels with his productions, regularly featuring in the sets of the world’s leading DJ’s and with his last release ‘Tears In The Rain’ topping the biggest digital charts.

Famed for his ability to play ‘stand out sets at any time of the night’ (Gatecrasher), this has been reflected in his own productions and the broad spectrum of music that has been released to critical acclaim across the Enhanced labels.
