Therein lies Lawler’s beef with Holden. Probably thought at that time he hadn’t paid his dues. Fucking talent gap as wide as the Mersey tunnel 🤣

    alistair The feedback from my mate was that Holden was obviously highly intelligent but looked really awkward poolside in Miami 🤣

    Think Will from the inbetweeners.

      Also Holden used to moan that the scene was full of old Producers/DJ’s in their 40’s. He’s 43 and still going?

        Dan He’s always been a musician first (when did he last DJ?) and in my humble opinion, his latest album is a career highlight. Outgrew the confines of “the scene” early on. Lawler’s merely a DJ that had his day

            alistair I wouldn’t say Lawler has had his day as he’s still booked out regularly.

            I’m no fan tbh.

              Funky It doesn’t matter whether they had ghost writers. You’re talking about djing, not producing. How about you name a producer that’s now a DJ that is better than Sasha was at his peak?

                Dan He’s playing live. Was hoping to catch him myself but there isn’t a London show yet. Appears to be a lot busier on RA than Lawler 🤣

                    Pretty sure I saw him billed in April for a London show.

                      He was in Folkestone the other week.

                      He was decent around then, when he got his shit together.

                      All said and done Holden ‘DJing’ for want of a better term, was and still is one of the worst things live I’ve ever heard. I mean it was absolutely abysmal on every level. We left after about an hour. He looked like a heroin vagrant who’d found someone’s records in a bin.

                      Amps His Firin Off (?) covermount CD was excellent.

                      I saw him twice IIRC, once at Gurnmills, maybe once at Tribal Sessions.

                      The time I saw him at Gurnmills he was wank, just playing one tribal banger after another, almost no attention to sequencing or mixing.

                          Did Holden get rid of his druggy manager girlfriend from the 2000s, or is he still with her?

                            rhouses By the look of him I’d say they are still happily together.
