i like his music a lot-he is one of those artists im buying albums from without listening to them first (so far everything i got is awesome). i bought "david holmes present the free association" yesterday and i love it, especially this tracks: -don't rhyme no mo (very hip-hopish, but with davids style) -i wish i had a wooden heart -everybody knows -la dolce vita -paper underwear (absolutely awesome!!!) whole album is a bit more hip hop to his other albums (there are couple of almost jazzy tunes as well). he gets mentioned very rarely on this mb-im not sure is this because ppl dont like his music or he's just not well known (i doubt this tho hehe) |

I'm selling a Free Association mix CD on eBay now, along with Holmes' 'This Film's Crap, Let's Slash The Seats'. I haven't listened to anything more than what I'm getting rid of though, so maybe his other stuff is decent. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
wow, you're selling free association so soon? i thought it was just released :) btw, "let's get killed" is still my fav release of his |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
That was Howie B |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yeah, and howie is even better! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
oh ....did david do 'gritty shaker'? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
"lets get killed" is a class album. but... don´t ever go and see the cunt DJ. i saw him twice and he is ytterly crap.. mixing genres in a reallyu careless way. He´s known, over here, in Ireland, as being a smug, gobshite up his own arse. Good producer, shit DJ. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Yep. they use that on TV loads. Along with Rodney Yates. You should all have Lets Get Killed. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Yeah, but the stuff he plays you can't really mix. But he may be a smug twat roit enough. Interesting how he's gone from techno to the eclectic stuff he plays now. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
This isn't the album though, it's a promo mix CD thing. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i see, well im not going to sell mine :) |
||||||||
|
|

The 'Don't Die Just Yet' EP - the one with the Delakota and Mogwai remixes - is very very excellent. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
he reminds me of amon tobin pretty much (a bit more trippy, but i like it much more to tobin's stuff) and yeah, i guess this type of music is pretty tough to mix live...but as i dont get much chance to see people like holmes live im limited to his releases, which is fine by me btw, i always thought he's the 3rd biggest thing in ireland (behind u2 and dubliners) :) |

What's that wierd Irish family/band that seems to be big everywhere outside the British Isles? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Oh yeah, I reckon Daniel O'Donnell is the biggest thing in Ireland. That's pretty scary actually. He has middle-aged housewife groupies who follow him around the world. Whenever he plays in Nottingham they're camped outside the the concert hall for tickets for days. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
would you recommend any particular release of his? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
dunno. ahh... we irish are pretty good at slagging out own. we have a built in begrudgery complex i think! its pretty stupid actually. David Holmes is a popular DJ alright, but shit if yer into IDM. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
is that the jackson familly you're thinking about? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
im sure that doesnt stand for everyone hehe i saw a concert u2 had just outside dublin like 2 years back, and it seemed pretty crowded to me (could be they were all germans tho...) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Trust me, you don't even want to go there. All songs about his 'mammy'. Ugh. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Ahh, I remember now, they're The Kelly Family. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
perhaps i better check him out when he outgrows the "mammy" thing... oh, yeah, and kelly family rock! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Hmm, he won't outgrow it, ever, it makes him millions. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i keep my mammy thing in a jar, pickled...it is waiting scientific recognition... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I'd recommend his new one. Here: http://www.amazon.co.uk/exec/obidos/ASIN/B00008A8L3/qid=105 1793015/sr=2-1/ref=sr_2_3_1/026-9039103-4012461 |

|
|
If you need anymore give my grandmother a shout. |
||||||||
|
|

|
|
i take you inherited your musical taste from your grandmother btw, with all this talk about irish musicians...i'm going to see massive attack on june 5th, and i was kind of hoping sinead would join them-but now she apperantly finished her career...i hope she changes her mind again! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
now playing: gritty shaker...very funky and uplifting...it's been a while since the last time i listened to him...still good! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|

||||||||
|
|

His essential mix double CD is awesome. As is "let's get killed" for that matter. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Great artist! I live almost everything he's releasing. 'Let's Get Killed' is so awesome. |
