VOTE FOR JOHN B IN THE DJ MAG TOP 100!
September 10, 2009
Please Vote for John B in the DJ Mag Top 100 Vote!!
Taken from the Official John B Blog:
So its that time of year again where I need your vote – this is the only awards thing I really bother trying to get support for, so excuse me if it feels a bit spammmmy for the next couple of weeks – I just neeeeeed the votes!
Last year thanks to you guys I made it to number 126 – and was number 3 in the D&B DJs (only Andy C & Hype above me) which was an amazing achievement, especially for someone as far outside UK mainstream DnB – so THANKS, I was really touched by the support from you lovely sexy electro-bots ;-).
The poll is traditionally dominated by the big house & trance DJs, Tiesto, Guetta etc etc and DnB never really gets much of a look-in, so we need the votes even more – it would be absolutely MIGHTY if I could break into the top 100 this year – so PLEAAAAASE go vote for me at http://www.top100djs.net/ and try to get your mates/grandma/cat to do it too!
If you really want to SUPER help, when you vote obviously put me at number 1 – and then people you think will probably be above me anyway as the other 4. (Yes I’ve been watching too much reality TV lately and thinking too tactially!)
Anyway – voting ends Sept 3rd so not long to go now – thanks for all the support. CLICK HERE TO VOTE

“So I finally got all the photos together, gathered (with the kind help of my Russian fans & friends on vKontakte.ru) from lots of gallery websites, all Russian ones I find impossible to translate 😉
As you can see it was an amazing show, ROASTING in there, so much so they got me 2 huge fans which worked a treat – except they blew my CDs about 😉 Had no time to hang around afterwards either, there’s only one flight a day out of Nizhny Novgorod on a decent airline (i.e not a scarey Russian one!) at about 5 am – so I had to literally jet right out of there as soon as my set was done – straight to the airport, with all my makeup on and rave-dirt etc! Got a few funnny looks at Passport control but managed to totally sort myself out and get changed in the wierd little airport bathroom before the flight took off. I think I was only on the ground for about 4 hours from the point of landing in Russia to taking off again – that’s a proper rave-commute 😉
Anyway – here’s some of the photos below, and as always you can see the whole gallery on my flickr gallery, facebook AND myspace (yes I spend a lot of time uploading stuff!)”

Taken from the offical John B Blog:
The guys at nitebeat.de and subculture.de sent over some galleries of photos from my gig over in Freiburg, Germany a couple of weeks back, at 18 months club, with MC Fava – man with the deepest voice in Germany! Had a really fun gig, nice and busy, and well up for it crowd.
Had the world’s greatest Club Sandwich in the hotel first actually – worthy of a picture:
And then Rrrrrrrrrinsed it out! (Note my shirt totally soaked and stuck to my back later on. Was HOT in there! Got a late checkout the next day and had some proper rest, seriously good to be able to catch up some sleep like that sometimes! The hotel people were lovely and made me a FABULOUS espresso the next day, flight was on time, and came home to my fabulous girlfriend and PIZZA. Yay!
As usual you can see the whole gallery of photos (there’s about 300!) up on my flickr, facebook & myspace pages – and on their original places at nitebeat.de and subculture.de (thanks to the photographers for sending the photos over!).

Many thanks to Lukas Verdijk for sending over the photos from my gig over in Holland a couple of weeks ago, and big up to DJ Tyson for hooking up the event and getting the audio recording and these pics over so quickly – check out my podcast for the recording of my set!
The club was a bit smaller than I’m used to playing lately, but the vibe was excellent, really REALLY good sound & lighting, and literally everyone in there was going nuts – ended up with loads of randoms up on the stage jiggling about 😉 Flew over from London to Dusseldorf then a quick drive over to Arnhem with Shimon, who was also playing – good to catch up with mr AudioPorn and check out what he’s playing too. So yeah, great gig – looking forward to going back sometime!
I’ve posted the whole photo galleries up on flickr, the John B Myspace page & the John B Facebook Fan page.

720p HD Tour video of John B’s biggest gig ever to 25,000+ ravers at the SKK arena in St. Petersburg for the Pirate Station ‘Immortal’ Event.
Loads of live footage from his set in the main arena, then the VIP Deluxe arena for his 2nd set. Crazy performances from acrobats and performance artists & sexydancers on-stage. And some bonus footage from the artists’ area backstage, and pretty scary video of stilt walkers falling over! (We hope they’re ok!)
Much love to all the Russian fans, all the organisers & crew that made the event as amazing and memorable as it was!
To be followed by another video of all the random backstage drunken banter 😉

Think I’ve just about managed to round up all the photos that could be found in the internet from this event 😉
Last Saturday I played in Moscow, for the Pirate Station guys again, HUGE party in a big Expo Hall in the middle of Moscow. Someone told me it was the biggest Expo complex in Europe. I believe them! Hungary was the day before, and I went straight form the gig to the airport in Budapest, didn’t get to sleep till about 3pm when I made it to the hotel in Moscow. Woke up to the surreal rumble of the sound system warming up (hotel was in the same complex) and the first of many super-theatrical intros they do, really got me tingling! I’d watched Hellboy 2 earlier in the week, with the ‘Golden Army’ and man, it sounded like there were a gazillion golden army robo-goblins waking up and crashing about. Too much for my jetlagged & frazzled brain! Heheh!
So yeah, an amazing gig, I got to the stage nice and early so I could hang out with the other DJs and hear what was being played, and just take in the vibes – really good time. So yeah, thanks to all the organizers & to all my Russian fans that stayed right till the end to see me play at 5am! It really was special 😉
You’ll already know this if you are a subscriber to my fabulous podcast (!) but they broadcast my set live, and I managed to get a recording and its now available FREE as a lovely podcast! CLICK HERE for more info.
Oh, and add me on vkontakte.ru here!! 😉
All the photos I found (and was thankfully sent by you guys out there) can be seen in galleries on my flickr, facebook & myspace pages. Enjoy!
