James Holden

Going to see him on December 2. All I've heard from him is Horizons, Pacific and Nothing. What kind of music should I expect? Tracks or livesets that you can recommend?

Thanks

My first clubbing experience was James Holden for 4+ hours. It was absolutely fantastic.

He plays nothing like any of the tracks you mentioned. His mixing can be fairly spotty but overall it is solid enough. Expect wicked tracks consisting of "minimal" tech, tech house, techno, and weirdness. It will be lovely.

Well I'm a big Holden fan ever since I've first heard of him and I nearly cried when I missed him last month due to the lack of mullah so my opinion is a little suspicious. Few reason: although not much concerning his sets he's an amazing musician and producer, he's has a wide fan base, He can deliver a great flow to a night, his sets although not technically wonderful are arguably flawless with amazing vibe, he's just one of the guys that has it down. It's like I say dj's have it, don't have it, or learn it. James Holden has it...




edit: he also seems to be a very sympathetic, chill guy..

He is probably the only dj whose sets I download without hesitation. Yes, he is mixing isn't great, but the track selection and the vibe make up for it. You just cannot miss a Holden gig. Where will he be playing at on Dec 2? Because there is nothing going on for him on that day according to his schedule on myspace.

James Holden is funnayyyyy. And a stoner which is also a (+) in my book. I wish he would play like his Balance CD. That CD is f.i.r.e.

Probably one of the worst dj's I've seen recently. His set at cocoon this year was bad beyond belief, absolutely no atmosphere while he was on, his mixing was gash and the tunes he played were just plain awful..

never had the chance to see him live, but his livesets are almost always very good even if the mixing is hardly ever great - but then i don't care at all about the mixing anyway

Saw him this year at timewarp and extrema outdoor. In both cases he played brilliantly. Everybody went nuts.
