Holden* – The Idiots Are Winning

its been a while since i spun this one .....one of my ''record of the summer'' ...feels like [in retrospect ] the beginning of the the new production era .....holds it own almost 20 years later ...2000 and six was not a big 4 on the floor year ...it was dubstep era....i remember getting bad vibes for playing it ....f#ck em i rember thinkin ....good music is good music whatever is in fashion ..

sounds like Aphex Twin remixed some vintage Orbital material, nice!

I'm a big fan of his later work, you can hear the musician emerging from just a typical techno artist in this. Holden is much more than just a knob twiddler, he is a real composer and musician, the live shows are amazing. This is a good album to hear those beginnings.

101010 one of the best tracks ever. Up there with timeless electronica like Boc or Aphex.

The cover itself and the transparent plates. I love it. Worth every penny. Certainly a lot of value in 20 years. This is a must for fans.

On of the best work on electronic since Aphex Twin ! James Holden have no label, his inspiration comes from his depp soul. Free to talk and collaborate with strong musicians.

anyone else has the side D sticker on both C & D sides?

Record was really warped when I received it. Anyone else has simular issues?

That 10101!!!! Brillant track : electronica, dub and minimal melodic at their best, creative and not boring. Timeless compared to so many others.
Effects, stereophonic depth, so simple and complex at the same time. A Masterpiece!!

"Lump" is nuts in the best way and still crushes dancefloors. Try it.
