Holden

Long-awaited three-disc gatefold vinyl repress of James Holden’s critically acclaimed 2013 masterwork, ‘The Inheritors’, a timeless essential and the defining cornerstone of the UK electronic producer’s folk-trance manifesto.

Carving out his own distinctive organic niche outside of the functional constraints of the dancefloor, ‘The Inheritors’ saw Holden instead embrace the experimental, playful spirit of Germany’s Krautrock forefathers. In Holden’s hands the modular synth is evocative, transportive and nostalgic, punctuated with found percussion, tantalising vocal fragments and a hypnotic pagan thud which feels inherently human. Reissued fresh off the back of his latest solo LP, ‘Imagine This Is A High Dimensional Space Of All Possibilities’, and a run of UK and European support shows with The Smile, Holden’s ‘The Inheritors’ cult continues to seek out new converts. In addition, playbenny.com is open-source software built by Holden, and he also has a remix for Harmonia’s ‘Musik von Harmonia’ anniversary edition on Groenland Records.
