James Holden - Live @ Spezialmaterial, Club Zukunft (Zürich, Switzerland) (08-02-2013)

A favorite punching bag around these parts (whether it be his shunning of pixie twance, jumping off the avant-garde deep end, or his handful of foot-in-mouth statements), this is a journey of epic proportions (ok, I'm only 45 minutes in, but that's just how it's shaping up):

Took me 3 tries but I eventually got a captcha and a download button. Fuck those obnoxious download sites.

Offliberty will grab the mixcloud stream if you don't want to jump through timers or captcha hoops.

Just making my way past the first hour. Fascinating. And I'd take it a step further by calling it downright good.

The flow of Holden's sets tend to be so chunky and erratic (and not in a flavorful quirky way), and I'm not sure how deliberate it is, as he in general seems to alternate between entertaining a crowd and amusing himself. But he also has an ingenious ear for placing songs in and alongside each other that I would have never imagined fitting together, and the result is often brilliant.

One thing I do like about Holden's DJ style is that he'll build up tension with a handful of tracks that just kind of click by at 1:30 to 2:30 each, then throw on a rager and just let it storm for ten minutes. Always a nice touch.
