This song has made me so happy lately. Just when you thought electronic music got boring, Holden comes along and shows you how seriously powerful it can be. One of the real unsung heros IMO. Thanks :)

hiii,

A year end present for everyone!

2014 led Blue Hawaii around the world. Over multiple visits to Russia, China/SE Asia, Mexico, Japan, Europe and the US, it felt like everything was coming up opposite Untogether, the album we made. Instead of being secluded in a Montreal apartment writing a fragmented break-up record, we were travelling vast distances, rediscovering each other as close friends and tying together radically different cultures. Our music came to reflect that. Live, everything sounded more together and higher energy than the record in an effort to find common ground with all those different audiences. 

It's the end of the year, so to commemorate the global underground touring we did— to all the people who were interested in coming to and putting on a Blue Hawaii show in Bangkok or Vilnius— we decided to put together a free mixtape of edits —  somewhere between the dreamy record and the banging live show. 

In 2015, Ra will focus on her other band, BRAIDS, who have just completed a beautiful, deeply emotional, new record which I am very excited to see come into the world. I will use what I’ve learnt this year DJing and roaming the earth to produce more music this winter —  planning on releasing material in a similar vein to this mixtape and hitting SXSW this March as DJ Blue Hawaii.. holding down the fort until Ra and I can record another album…   something 4 y’all to look forward to! ---;)  Agor (the boy in Blue Hawaii)

Enjoy!

"Triangle Folds," an exclusive track from his DJ-Kicks mix, is the first Holden offering for over four years. Naturally it displays all of the trademark Holden musical perversions: loose, live-feeling rhythms, quirky time signatures and the bare minimum of pandering to the dictates of the conservative DJ. The track is the edited-down result of heady late night analogue jam sessions improvising on an electronic theme using his enviable modular synthesizer collection: “Trying to catch the moment, not trying to make the moment,” explains Holden. “Like it was already there.”

DJ-Kicks The Exclusives

Triangle Folds

James Holden- Triangle Folds (DJ-Kicks)

Man is not a nature, he does not tolerate emptiness. Once he get in the void, he seeks to fill it. He fills it with visions and imaginary sounds, if not able to fill it with something real. And sometimes the result is absolutely wonderful.
Founded by Sacha Mambo and Guillaume Des Bois, Macadam Mambo is an unpredictable label from Lyon, active for more than 7 years. This new release confirms its impeccable and eclectic taste and vision to the music - brilliant blend of cosmic krautrock, experimental rock, psychedelic road trip into the mind of Ashinoa, band project leaded by Chris Poincelot aka Abschaum. Something that could be the perfect soundtrack for a desertical road trip, or in the middle of a dark forest, or maybe while driving fast, but anyway to be listened really loud. Vinyl and digital release, out on April 29th.
