In April 2011, Irish producer John O’Callaghan added more future classics to his extensive discography, as his third artist album ‘Unfold’ saw the light. In follow-up to more than 50 original compositions and two ground-breaking artist albums, ‘Unfold’ unleashed new anthems such as ‘Save This Moment’, ‘Bring Back The Sun’, ‘Ride The Wave’ and ‘Talk To Me’. The memorable producing party was joined by Betsie Larkin, Audrey Gallagher, Giuseppe Ottaviani, Neptune Project and many more gifted producers and vocalists.


For months, fans of the number one Irish DJ have been screaming for the full versions of ‘Unfold’. Already revealed during many of John’s international gigs, but now finally available for all of the clubbers, music lovers and fans: the Extended Versions of the ‘Unfold’ jewels.

Dimitri Kechagias review: JOC is a hot and streamy Irish trance god who Unfolds his extended versions on the public that was waiting for them for months. The wise ones who bought and have in their collection his album I'm sure that they consider it as  the one of the main choices for any in house or outside house parties. Centurion is an absolute crowd pleaser because of its fat and furious rave synthy riff that will do some real damage on any set. Psychic Sensor has that old fashion  psy trance feel to it with the cool vocal sample and that dynamic raw power that only JOC knows how to deliver right and exact. Raw Deal is an epic tech trancer with a very large classical like music theme in the breakdown and then when the beasty beat returns you know that will be party all night long. Smokescreen  is a lighter affair with electro twinged samples and overall progressive summery feeling. The melody in the breakdown grows and grows till to reach you inside your heart. Stresstest is a tough dark trancer that guys who love to play tech trance monster tunes will adore. even techno wiz kids will adopt in a techno set that has some melody too. Save This Moment is a beautiful vocal dreamy trancer that now in its extended version is ready to enter your big room sets along with that great indie rock quitar reminding us U2 songs for sure with the awesome Betsy Larkin on vocal duties soon with her own album. Mess of machine is another big vocal number of the album with sensitive heartfelt youthful vocal and the lovely progressive tribal balearic beats undernearth it. Stargazer is a classic trancer on the UK tip that has all the elements to win a peak time position in your set. Lastly Perfection is a spacious vocal trancer with indie dance influences that for 9 minutes will travel you to mysterious perfect places. 9 must have jewels. Full support and vote for JOC at the dj mag Top 100 pool.
