RA Exchange: James Holden

artist talk

Saturday, 7 April

The Exchange is Resident Advisor’s weekly interview podcast—a series of conversations with the artists, labels and promoters shaping the electronic music landscape. Typically recorded in Resident Advisor’s head offices in London and Berlin, the Exchange relocates to The Hague on Saturday, 7 April for an exclusive interview with James Holden.

The British-born artist, producer and Border Community label founder has undergone a remarkable shift in sound and scope with each of his projects. The latest, ‘The Animal Spirits’, sees James Holden shed the producer tag to be reborn as a live musician and bandleader. Resident Advisor staff writer Holly Dicker speaks to James Holden about this latest transformation and his obsession with jazz greats like Don Cherry and Pharoah Sanders.

RA Exchange can be visited free of charge.

James Holden also performs live with The Animal Spirits at Rewire 2018 on Saturday, 7 April.
