On supporting Dave Clarke ...
''John Rowe: a man with a task
ahead of him. The head of Hypnohouse Trax had the job of building up the
crowd for the The Baron Of Techno himself, and he knocked the ball
clean out of the park, with what I personally thought was the
performance of the evening. There were African rhythms, funky riffs,
acid sounds, everything you could ever expect from all aspects of
techno; all with that stomping kick providing a metronomic thud to keep
the crowd pulling all of the shapes. With his flawless selection,
combined with some top class turntable trickery, John had Cosmic
Ballroom’s Void speakers pounding from start to finish. It’s always good
to see someone genuinely enjoying themselves behind the decks too and the fist pumps and grins coming from John’s direction showed exactly that.''

On supporting Dax J...
''Pulling myself away from the Daftys Rave
Terrace for a while, I managed to catch someone who’d massively
impressed me at my last Milk The Cow night. John Rowe tore up the main
room with yet another pearl of a set, an amalgamation of techno in all
of its forms. There was stomping techno, hands-in-the-air techno, DJ
Assault-esque ghetto techno. Something for everyone, as long as you like
techno. But it wasn’t just his tune selection that was on point, John
is a wizard behind the decks, and was just as impressive this time
around as he was when I saw him at Dave Clarke''
