Influences... JAMES HOLDEN!

This time Gilly, one half of Rough Cut and one of the brains behind East Project, shares with us another of his big influences of the past 10 years...  And this time, he's going all techno on us!!

"One of my biggest influences and love in the world of techno has to be James Holden...!"



"I remember a friend telling me to listen to the album he released back in 2006 - The Idiots Are Winning. This album blew me away and since then I have loved seeing him!"




"We had one mix we always used to listen to before we went out. It was a James Holden Kiss 100 Transitions guest mix for John Digweed's show. This truly shows how good the man is..."

"We have had the pleasure of meeting him and seeing him many, many times over the years from clubs – warehouses – festivals. Each time amazing us with his sets...

A couple of standout sets have to be at TDK Festival and The End. Neither of these clubs exist anymore, so it feels even more special we got to see him at them!"


"His label Border Community has some amazing releases on and definitely worth checking out and we recently caught him at Field Day, where he played a Live set, which was extra special!"

Check out his record label/community on the link below:

There will always be DJs and producers that influence everyone differently but there is no denying the talents of James Holden...  Whether it's behind a mixing desk or in a DJ booth, the man knows how to produce those moments when you just go wow!
