John O'callaghan Podcast

Poland for the last few years has been a stronghold of trance & tech-trance in Europe. Huge events like Dreamstate are a pleasure to be part of as you always know it's going to be massive. Thanks as always to my Polish Trance Family. See you guys next time!

Here is the b2b set from myself and Aly & Fila - from the unforgettable weekend that was Subculture Thailand! Myself and Fadi never plan sets, so this one was truly an 'on the fly experience' :) I think that makes it more authentic & fun. Thanks to all the fans who travelled and made this weekend so amazing. It truly was one for the books!

Another incredible edition of the epic A State of Trance festival came to Rotterdam this weekend. It was a pure pleasure to be part of such a huge spectacle of Trance! Did you enjoy yourself? Here is my set from stage 2 - full of new debuts and very special IDs. Thanks to all who came and supported, I hope you enjoy the set. Big thanks to all @ ASOT for the incredible show!

Liberation London is becoming one of my favourite gigs of the year. It's a place where the DJ and crowd truly are one entity, together for the music. No spotlight and no focus on the stage needed. Just clubbing in it's purest vintage form. That's what I love. Thank you Liberation! P.S - this set is full of ID's! follow: https://www.instagram.com/thisisliberation/

What a way to end 2023, in the amazing city of Montreal. A place where I have played many dark, harder sets over the years - and this time was no different. I love the crowd here, and I love the club. Merci, Montreal! I hope to see you soon x

Finally got to b2b with one of my heros of trance. The wizard who taught me more than anyone could wish. What a moment, what a weekend - thanks once again to Dreamstate and the unreal SoCal crowd! Cheers G!

Here is my set from the legendary Planet Love festival in Northern Ireland. We hosted a stacked Subculture arena which was buzzing from the start. The weather was slightly against us but the tent was full to the end! Thanks Belfast, and thanks Planet Love!

Here is my set from the legendary Creamfields festival in the UK. I have played here every year (I think) since 2009, 14 years.. wow! This festival is a true part of UK, Irish and European clubbing history. It was a pleasure once again to play in the trance area. I hope you enjoy the set!

This is one I have been saving for a rainy day. As I have a weekend off to go to my sisters wedding, I thought I would upload this one. Never been heard before, my 4 hours Total Spectrum set from Academy LA. Have a great weekend everyone!

Just listen to the crowd on this one, amazing! We love you Melbourne! A total gift to be able to play in such a buzzing atmosphere. Thanks to Evolution and the unreal crowd who made this night possible, truly one to remember. Will we be back? F**k yeah :)

Luminosity is hailed as the best European trance festival and every year it proves again just why it gets that reputation. I played 90% brand new trance and IDs in my set, I hope you enjoyed them. I spent weeks in the studio getting them just right for the festival :) Thanks to everyone for an amazing weekend! tracklist: John O'Callaghan - Riverside Bryan Kearney & Bo Bruce - Shine A Light Yelow & Spy - ID Ben Gold - Rest Of Our Lives (Paul Webster Remix) Charlotte de Witte & Enrico Sangiuliano vs. John Askew - Strange Reflection (JOC Noodle) 0Gravity - Without You John O'Callaghan - ID John O'Callaghan & Tom Colontonio & Sinead McCarthy - Reality Will Rees vs. Asteroid - Exhilarate Metta & Glyde & Yoshi & Razner - Connecting Minds Lostly - Reach You Craig Connelly - ID John O'Callaghan, Paul Skelton & Sue McLaren - Power of Now Chicane ft Moya Brenna - Saltwater (ID remix) Maria Healy - ID Hans Zimmer - Chevaliers De Sangreal (John O'Callaghan Remix) Daxon - Before it's Lost John O'Callaghan - Impulse B

Here is my first ever open to close set in Belfast. One of the best gigs of my life to be honest. I am eternally grateful for the support Belfast has given me, truly a special place! For the first 2.5 hours I ventured into some progressive, tech-house and techno, including some of my favourite tracks from other genres. Then, from there we went into full on trance and tech-trance. Thanks again to all for creating such a memorable experience!

Beyond Wonderland 2023 was one of the most awesome atmospheres I have seen in California! The crowd was crazy energetic and it was a true pleasure to play for them. After my set I walked around and it was amazing to see all the stages going off, proper! Huge thanks, see you next time.

The famous Passion from Coalville, UK is one of the best trance clubs in the world. I have been lucky enough to play here many times over the years, and this night was one of the finest. Absolutely packed up for it crowd who love their trance, what more could you want. Thanks Passion! Live recording credit: Rob Millard https://www.facebook.com/rob.millard.75

Here is my extended set from the incredible city of Buenos Aires, where I always feel like home. Thanks to the people of Argentina once again for making lifelong memories, I will see you again my friends! *I did not make this mix audio super loud, so you can hear the crowd atmosphere. The audio levels vary due to the recorder - I know certain parts are not perfect but this is for those who want to relive this night. Thank you :)

One of our most popular Subculture events to date took place in the amazing city of Bangkok, Thailand. People travelled from far and wide to be part of this night - thank you to all of those legends for joining us! My set was a combo of new unheard Subculture IDs combined with some Subculture favourites. Hopefully we get to go back soon - thanks again!

The yearly trance pilgrimage to San Bernardino occurred this November. The weather was cold but the energy was high! It's an honour to have played 2 sets at this event; here is my Joint Ops set from the Void stage. Happy holidays all, and see you in '23 :) x John

A huge event for Transmission in the flourishing trance scene of Poland. We were delighted to be part of it and to be back in one of our favourite places - Gdansk! We can't wait to see you again, thank you.

A huge milestone event for Rong Manchester, it's amazing to see how much they have grown since their first events. I felt I should play as much new stuff as I could at Rong in the first half of my set. Most of them are forthcoming on Subculture. Hope you like the ID's!
