7 Inspiring tracks
He lives on the outskirts of Stockholm, Sweden. His studio is just a hop, skip and jump away in the city, or in the summertime he can take a chilled cycle jaunt through the park to get there. Every day is a day in the studio for John, where he’ll be doing what he does in a superlative fashion, producing and remixing the kind of lustrous tech house, trance-tinged music he’s known for, and in recent years has been nominated for – that’ll be a US Grammy and a BRIT award.
