[content title="Summary" label="Overall Score"]John Askew is definitely one of the real heroes in trance music scene. He produced countless tracks on various labels and now he debuts on Armind with clean, clear and crispy uplifting feel good trance sound on the track Aces Hi. The track is written by the book of UK uplifting trance sound with pumping energetic driving basslines, thumping grooves and sharp kicks while on top the darker sinister synthy melodies are transformed in the breakdown into beautiful feel good euphoric epic melodies along with some melancholic synthy plucks that will bring Ibiza and summer holidays in your mind. Pure instrumental uplifting trance with great sound design and build towards magnificent hands in the air climax on the way that John knows for years now to deliver with consistency and respect for the underground. #PureGold Love IT [/content]
