I think the difference between Holden and Thom Yorke is about 20 million quid.

Holden made the mistake of turning his back on the progressive lifestyle, and then his brain prolapsed.
He could have been the new DJ Tennis.
What a looser.
Holden I’m talking about, not Millsy.
I’ll never forget how everyone and their mothers couldn’t stop raving about his At The Controls mix, only to come back a year later to say it was noisy rubbish.
Did somebody say ‘blatant self promotion’?
Don’t believe anyone did, no
Remember Holden playing the Soundshaft at Bedrock and me quite enjoying it. Was the start of the Border Community stuff so the tunes were good and I was absolutely spangle dangled which would have helped.
Do remember the Medicine Bar, saw Carl Craig there.
Not the best night I’ve ever had.
Got Holden down as an anti-vaxxer.
Cheers!
Going by his appearance seems the sort that covid would ravage.
Watched him live once, the mixing was dire, the track selection not so bad. But he was extremely approachable at the end of the night, and just seemed like a very sweet guy. Letting the punters come in and mess around with his gear and having a laugh.
He also ended with this, which is an absolute banger… always goes down hard on a club system:
Wonder if he’s still with that manager girlfriend of his that caused a ton of trouble for promoters, terrible reputation and apparently extremely difficult to work with.
Did someone mention Oxford?
Cankles-McJeggings Lolz. Edward can tell you all about the scene there. Slide was a pretty good night for the provinces.
Slide was a great night!
