James Holden's site has had no news posted since May and no journal entries in June. He said he was working on an artist album, but I can't find any news or possible release date on it. He hasn't been on essential mix six '02 I believe, and is never on the Digweed show. So, I can't even get his live sets (from freshly mixed that is). And Balance 005 came out about 2 years ago. He is so talented, but his attempts to please a world wide audience have seemed... how do I put this lightly... half-assed. Does anybody know why he teases us Holden fans so?

I commend him for that. He's not pushing himself into the limelight, and I very much respect that.

Nevermind, he's been playing the same tunes for about a year now

Yes... this is really causing me to lose interest in him, and border community as a whole. They still put out the best music around... but its all so few and far between

But on the upside... whenever that troop puts out new stuff... its ALWAYS worth the wait.

No!

You have to dig further

The new BC tune Fairmont - Gazebo is awesome btw

I thought this thread was about AFX

according to last i heard of james, he´s locked up in the studio making an EP. Lump will probably be on it, or get a seperate release, as well.

I understand if he doesn't want to sacrifice qualtiy for putting out releases, but what is stopping him from releasing a mix cd to satisfy his loyal (you would have to be at this point) fanbase. While his releases are very original, and a few tracks are unbelieveable, as a whole his releases just seem O.K. His Balance CD was stellar, and was unlike anything that had been released at the time. I can't say that about the vast majority of what he has been doing the past 2 years.

And speaking of dissappearing acts, whatever happened to Rob Dougan?
