His 2010 DJ-Kicks contribution stood out as a remarkably consistent piece in a series that by its nature tends to foster patchworks. True to form, The Inheritors, Holden’s first LP since 2006’s The.
The latest addition to the James Holden archive is an album of solo synth work originally written to accompany the critically-acclaimed documentary ‘A Cambodian Spring’: fourteen tracks of pulsing melancholy, foreboding drone and even the occasional burst of beatless trance in the form of the uplifting arpeggios of surefire album highlight ‘Solidarity Theme’.

Picking up where his classic 2013 album ‘The Inheritors’ left off (and giving ‘Self-Playing Schmaltz’ a new cinematic airing) Holden’s debut soundtrack project combines the sound palette of his beloved Prophet 600 with a cranky old Hammond organ to showcase the full breadth of his musical tastes across the epic documentary format. The LP includes digital download code and sleevenotes by ‘Imaginary Cities’ author Darran Anderson. Catalogue number: 49BCLP Condition: New Label: Border Community

Seven long years stretch between James Holden’s debut album, The Idiots Are Winning, and its follow-up, The Inheritors. Thankfully, he has successfully averted tumbleweeds, but he’s also taught us in the process that it helps to veer wildly off course. The first thing to say is that this isn’t really dance music.
The Inheritors is the eagerly-awaited follow-up to James Holden's rightfully-acclaimed The Idiots Are Winning, a milestone from 2006. This is a whole new world and complete mythology in album form, which stretches way beyond the traditional confines of dance music.
From then on, he has released a string of remixes of everyone from Madonna and Britney Spears, through Depeche Mode and New Order, to Nathan Fake and Kieran Hebden and Steve Reid. In April 2006, his mix album James Holden at the Controls was Mixmag 's 'Album of the Month'.
