James Holden on Minimal, Discuss...
quote:
"Minimal has no meaning. It's progressive with a few new plug-ins! Especially now you get these minimal geeks who think they are really cool because they like this ketamine music. I grew up with minimalist classical music – that’s minimal. And the bouncing ball delay effect out of Ableton - well done, you've loaded a plug-in! I don't really respect people that jump on the bandwagon and that is largely the problem because people put a word to what is trendy.”

I think his style is IDMish progressive house, with maybe a few minimal elements in to it.

He is saying what's already been said.....but nice to see Holden come out of his pot induced haze once in a while to say something actually meaningful for once.

lol, i think u fail to see what jumping on bandwagons really is. Read the article for a sec
Quote:
In previous interviews he’s said that he wants his career to be judged from the creation of Border Community. Why?
“Because from that point it was entirely my own thing and what I believe in and my own free will. Before then it wasn't. It's that simple.”
Great interview btw, he hits the nail on the head quite alot here
