It's easy to forget that John has already had one artist album release such is the fast paced nature of his productions but the sequel to the debut is only a month away. His second album is now finished and the reaction so far is good...
I must have been one of the first people to get my hands on John's first artist album as I had it on pre-order with Discover. When it arrived through the letterbox on its day of release the wait was well worth the wait. The double CD edition featured one disc brimmed to the top his productions so far with the second a full on mixture of collaborations and his own production work. It marked on the history that John had really arrived as a producer and was sure to be one producer who would continue to exceed in the years to come.
That was only 2007 and those who tipped John to do very good things in the Dance Music Industry were all correct, as he is one of the biggest Trance artists on the circuit at the moment. He's just released one of new tracks to feature on the album called 'Sureal' which really shows you the vocal melodic side of John's productions for those who only now him as all thump. The other eleven tracks on the album John is very proud off as he's been working on this sequel for a good 14 months.
"Listening back to the album now that it is finished, I'm delighted with the final result. I realise now that each track really offers something different as there is so many different styles on the album. Spending so long on the album, I went through different phases of production styles and enjoying particular ideas, that's why I think the tracks offer such a variety of sounds and atmospheres.
The 2nd single is one I am really excited about. Right now we are waiting on the remix of Cosmic Gate, but the original mix has already been destroying clubs when I tested it out. I also think it has great crossover appeal and hopefully that could lead to more radio play. For the purer trance fans there will be of course be an uplifting mix - and the Cosmic Gate remix should cover the big room aspect. The original is most definitely the "album version" as this is what the song sounds best as, with the original sounds and melodies created by myself and Sarah Howells."

Every artist if biased in one way when it comes to their productions but with this new release John feels very happy with all the new productions he's put together.
"To be honest I really like all of them, but for different reasons. Club wise - "Broken" is really getting huge reactions. I wanted at least 1 track on the album to have my tech-infused style that I am somewhat known for. And on the other hand, the album title track "Never Fade Away" for me holds special meaning. I wrote that track as a completely instrumental ambient piece which is really calming, and with the soft vocals on top - it just brough out the soul of the song even more. Another big one club wise right now is "Don't Look Back", where I tried a more old-skool trance sound. I tried to make that as simple as I could with some classic sounds, but the effect seems to have worked in the final track. I really can't wait for the release!"
