ok, i had figured that out. what i meant is, james does play some electro even if not much, i think? i got the idea mr. Radagast was saying there he doesn't even get to touch an electro record. maybe he was just saying james holden isn't an "electro dj" cause that isn't what he plays the most, that makes sense.

You see, Radagast only considers biscuit-tin beats and robot voices of the original electro to be "real" electro. However, electro recieved a renaissance circa 2001, and now elements of it are creeping into every type of dance music. Just because the percussion now kicks and the robot voices are a lot less common, doesn't mean it's not electro in some form.
