[James Holden-Lump]

I once read a review of James Holden wherein some fella expressed the thought that, whilst very creative, James tends to get a bit carried away with effects. An idiotic opinion. I don’t know what the conventional hack is in to not and wouldn't go very far to find out, but I like my sounds otherworldly and transportive. Holden was born to crush, warp and make sounds bend over backwards and he does so with aplomb. I think it's Rubber Johnny from Chris Cunningham’s brilliant short (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l48HTZUHfeQ) on vocals but we will have to confirm this with James or Johnny.
