Magnetic Soul has been a bit quiet lately, but it doesn't mean that we are finished producing quality Drum N Bass events.
To celebrate our 5 year anniversary, we have the one and only John B. If you haven't heard of John B and his colorful persona, you must have been living under a rock for the last few years
John's exploits are many and widespread. He runs the labels Beta and Tangent, he's released albums, he's made electro and 80's influenced Drum N Bass, he's made "trance and bass", he has massive DNB dancefloor releases on Metalheadz, such as "Up All Night," he has produced clever songs and acompanying videos such as "You've Been Stalking Me On Myspace" and "American Girls," he runs an active video podcast, blog, youtube channel, and active Twitter tweeter. He's also the only Drum N Bass DJ that is consistently in the DJ Mag Top 100 list and he's got over 93,000 friends on myspace.

全球百大 DJ 鼓打貝斯界 No. 1集 Prodigy、ATR、Steve Aoki 於一身的音樂鬼才...
如果你喜歡如 Steve Aoki、Prodigy、Major Lazer 等離經叛道的瘋狂演出，或沉迷於 Atari Teenage Riot、Pendulum 等高能量重拍的強力轟炸，卻沒聽說過 John B 這位音樂界先驅的話，那麼，你真的該砍掉重練了，小朋友。來自英倫的 John B 這號人物可是大有來頭；鼓打貝斯天王 Goldie 在聽完他的作品 Up All Night...後驚為天人，旋即將他收編糜下，成為傳奇超重量廠牌 Metalheadz 的旗下藝人；Up All Night 也成為了膾炙人口的舞池國歌。當時的John B 大學才剛畢業而已… 雄心壯志的他，並不因此自滿，也不受禁於新頭家 Goldie的囹圄，反逆的個性讓他總是身在曹營心在漢；明明就被鼓打貝斯天王欽點為樂界新星，天生賤骨的他硬是要嘗試 electro、龐克搖滾、乃甚至於傳思等不同領域的曲風他才滿意，你說賤不賤？正因 John B 的多方涉獵，使得他不僅受到 Goldie 青睞，更是獲得了國際巨星 DJ 界中的第一人，人稱「DJ 中的 DJ」的 Paul Oakenfold 賞識，而將 John B 的兩首作品接連收錄於個人混音輯「長城」之中；就算對人說「我愛妳」，也鮮少有人會連說兩次唄？英雄惜英雄的革命情誼，由此可見一斑。
不僅創作方面才氣過人、現場演出驚世駭俗，John B 更是懂得善用媒體炒作，藉由網路現象讓自己在更年輕的世代當中仍立於不敗之地。單曲 I’ve Been Stalking You On MySpace 便搶搭上網路社群熱潮，個人影音網站johnbtv.com 更是率先結合比 YouTube 更先進的 vimeo 網路影音平台，以影音部落格的新興娛樂形式經營自己的演藝事業。綜合上述各項優勢，想不紅都難。無怪乎 John B 於去年（2009）能以鼓打貝斯界唯一一人之姿擠入全球百大 DJ 榜中，超越提拔他的 Goldie，成為名符其實，有科學根據的「世界第一鼓打貝斯 DJ」！要體驗 John B 的瘋狂舞台魅力，千萬要把握這次機會；要是錯過，那可真是要砍掉重練惹～-
