James Holden may be quiet and unassuming, but his music is as dirty as it comes. The Border Community head honcho went from being trance wunderkind to single-minded purveyor of mussed-up techno, with his second album, The Inheritors, released to high praise in 2013.
In his lecture at the 2010 Red Bull Music Academy in London, Holden talks about wiring things up the wrong way, telling A&R men where to go and why you can mix anything, as long as it’s in the right key.

__________________________
A man of youth and many talents, James Holden does things in a very idiosyncratic way. The Exeter born student of mathematics debuted in 1999 with the trance-as-trance-can-be single “Horizons”, but went on to create a world of his own - being tagged the fresh wonder boy of British trance came with a collar. Freeing himself with his aptly named Border Community label and the genre-defying melodic anthem “A Break In The Clouds”, followed by his album The Idiots Are Winning, his imprint quickly became a home for like-minded people like Nathan Fake, Avus and Luke Abbott. Holden himself remained busy remixing artists like System 7, André Kraml, Caribou, Radiohead, Depeche Mode and even Madonna herself. Today, the music of James Holden is in the best possible way electronic, diverse and exciting - an approach similar to his kindred spirits Kieran Hebden and Caribou.
