James Holden Essential Mix 2002 Appreciation

[progressive420]

Ive heard this before but not in a while. The other night I got a sudden urge to dig this out and let me tell you I am so glad I did. ABSOLUTELY AMAZING!!!! Always loved Holden and his work, until he went electro minimal whatever. I never really go into his mixes though except this one(and I do like Balance 5). Some Essential Mixes are just so timeless and great and this is one of them for sure.

Opinions?

Yeah I always loved that mix. I went to see him at Slide in Oxford the week after it was broadcast and he played most of the tracks off it. Including the Beethoven & Mama's & Pappas tracks. I saw Nick Warren play that Staircase Faith track around the same time as well. I loved that track.

I spent about and hour talking to on of the members of Starecase in the toilets at a Hope party in Bristol. We must of looked like a right bunch of cottagers

Re: James Holden Essential Mix 2002 Appreciation

Re: James Holden Essential Mix 2002 Appreciation

Someone who lives in a cottage.

^ thats not quite what he meant

Re: James Holden Essential Mix 2002 Appreciation

Cottaging is a British gay slang term referring to anonymous sex between men in a public lavatory (a cottage or tea-room), and cruising for sexual partners with the intention of having sex elsewhere. The term has its roots in self-contained English toilet blocks resembling small cottages in their appearance; in the English cant language of Polari this became a double entendre by gay men referring to sexual encounters.
