Holden – The Inheritors

Long-awaited three disc gatefold vinyl repress of James Holden’s critically-acclaimed 2013 masterwork The Inheritors: a timeless essential and the defining cornerstone of the UK electronic producer’s folk-trance manifesto.

Carving out his own distinctive organic niche outside of the functional constraints of the dancefloor, The Inheritors saw Holden instead embrace the experimental, playful spirit of Germany’s Krautrock forefathers.

In Holden’s hands the modular synth is evocative, transportive and nostalgic, punctuated with found percussion, tantalising vocal fragments and a hypnotic pagan thud which feels inherently human.

Re-issued fresh off the back of his latest solo LP Imagine This Is A High Dimensional Space Of All Possibilities and a run of UK and European support shows with The Smile, Holden’s Inheritors cult continues to seek out new converts.

Pre-order now from the likes of Norman Records, Resident or Kompakt for delivery on 11th October.
