just because he's not playing prog anymore doesn't mean his label or sound sucks - his music still sounds like it did years ago, except its grown with time...his label still puts out unique material, regardless of it being melodic or not. luke abbott's LP was the perfect blend of melody, rhythm and experimentation. what more can you ask for?
p.s. kate wax is a phenomenal artist, not sure why the link is up there. |

| Holden is not an experimental musician, however hard he tries to be one. He knows all the concepts but has none of the spirit. |

I was riding on a 3 year memory when I said Balance 005 stunk. I just listened to CD2 and it consists of medicore MCprog tracks.

Meek - Happy is a very ill track though. |

You should think about using more normal/logical adjectives to describe good and bad. |

dude, you forgot...holden records everything to tape. he doesn't use computers. he even quantized his sounds by cutting up tape and stitching it back together. oh, and those aren't synths you hear in his recent work. it's just...it's just experimental sitars.
holden made experimental music like bach made techno. |

even though Holden was the mac major in a parade of fools, CD1 was better than CD2.
Jase From Outta Space Feat. Claire – Do What You Want (Infusion's Sky Mix) was the highlight of CD1. |

| Experimental some labels can carry it off others can't because most were firmilar to his normal style so change they couldnt cope unless you have a open mind .. |
