it became quite obvious that james holden's music was not made for hollywood megaclubs. he's an underground dj who plays underground music. underground music rarely works out well in megaclubs because the crowd only has an ear for the mainstream/pop sounds. keep the underground music at the underground venues--it works out better for the whole scene that way.

Originally posted by mondaysocial We had him @ Monday Night Social back in 2002 or 2003 (when we were @ Las Palmas).. Think that was the first time he ever played in LA too.. Nice guy.. Great DJ..!

I was gonna bring that up. It was his first time in LA. I picked him up from the airport. It was pouring rain that night so the trip was a little exciting. I went to drop him off at the Roosevelt and all the streets were closed to get in due to the Oscars, so I had to drop him off down the street in the rain. He didn't care one bit. Thought it was funny and just ask if I could bring his records to the club for him. He was just a really laid back stoner kid then I know he's opened up since. Was interesting to talk to him about how he came to fame.
We definitely need to get him back here.
Shit...back here. Sometimes I forget I'm in Phoenix Maybe if he comes to LA Dave can get him at the new Giant Wed in Phoenix. It's a much shorter trip to the airport for me here. And it hardly ever rains

Megaclubs are for dancing and throwing hands up in the air.

undergrounds are just for cutting-edge music

im sorry i ruined your thread!! Holden is perfect in a small, dark intimate club.....

I get caustrophobic in small dark intimate clubs.

i get sleepy!

to be honest you should be more afraid of large packed clubs. there's more chaos, you have much less control over your environment and you're at greater risk of being trampled/jumped/drugged/robbed/etc by someone you don't know and will never see again (or wouldn't even recognize if you did see again)...

I think he'd be perfect for King King or the upstairs of Vanguard again.

I agree King King would be great.
Alan...you should inquire.
Although I think he's going to be too expensive. We may feel his sound is more underground here, that doesn't make him less of a star around the world. I although think part of the reason he has not been here is because he's been taking some time of to focus on producing. He's a producer first, dj second. He's just so damn taleted he's a much better dj than most of the headliners who mainly dj.

+1

I'd be happy to open for him Gerard

Yes, this thread needs to be revived.

Bring Holden to LA!!

I love the reaction everytime I say meh...

Interesting. Andre and I opened for him a couple years back at Vangaurd upstairs. It was a good night.

But I agree - he needs a bumping room to play w/ good sound.

Perhaps a Funktion One setup?

if he played compression, then that would be guaranteed. But I don't have him on my radar for booking tho.
