The James Holden track that Alistair posted is absolute fucking drivel.

    Thing I liked about James Holden was that he had a very unique sound. I don’t think he needed to venture too far from that, but instead he went on a completely different trajectory. Now you can click on any track of his on BP from 2003 onwards and it’ll guarenteed to sound like a year 11 school music project

      Drawing the most tuned in crowds and making the best music. Truly his peak.

      Have never heard a track that’s 51 minutes long tbf.

        His Balance mix was a corker. He disappeared up his own backside when he started to faff about with modular synthesis.

        ScottBailey it was dead by 2002. even digweed started to play proper electro like pollon - lonely planet on scopex. but then never dug deeper, like britishers in general. nothing but mediocrity in the dancehalls. in fact the other side of that scopex tash plak was better, authentic xenomorphing gender abolitioning electro, no nick cleggs big knob in the view of the mirror. But again, lazy south coast djs. what can one say?

          Reasonable chance Diggers only learned of Pollon because Cass was playing it/in an electro phase.

            Was that in the End years, the Manchester years, the Speke Island years, or just the made up years? You will be telling us next about your job in Massive Records, rubbing up to Jo.

                I like Holden’s At the Controls a lot. It had nothing to do with prog anymore. That was in 2006. Not paid attention much after that.

                Dry-Tinder If Ed and Fake Dermo’s lies overlap, is it like crossing the streams in Ghostbusters, do we get total protonic reversal or destruction at the cellular level? Will the board be simply wiped away from it’s mortal hard drive coil?

                    zackster Billy Nasty certainly know of it at the time. he was releasing electro on tortured sublabel electrix after all. Slowcoach digweed!

                      I tell you what, it’s been an absolute riot so far, and long may it continue!

                      The stories would be a lot more believable if they had not been exactly the same as that disco diva’s (forget her name) in the back of Mixmag 20+ years ago. Almost like it wasn’t real.

                        Dan put delay effect on, noone will notice anyway
