David Holmes - Visionary Belfast musician, composer, producer, and DJ

On this episode, I’m joined by the visionary Belfast musician, composer, producer, and DJ, David Holmes. From soundtracking iconic films to collaborating with giants of UK music, David’s career is one of creative restlessness and fearless activism... The biggest surprise is that it's taken this long for him to collaborate with Paul Weller!We’ll dive into his formative years discovering Paul Weller through the music of The Jam, his journey through club culture, and how those bonds came full circle - culminating in a collaboration with Paul Weller on the song 'Resistance in the Dark' and the creation of The Five Techniques collective, a movement rooted in humanity and protest. Together we explore the intertwining of music and activism, Paul Weller’s legacy of speaking truth to power, and why artists can’t afford to stay silent in the face of global injustice. A candid, passionate conversation on what happens when creativity meets conscience, and the ongoing power of resistance in both art and life.Find podcast show notes and sign up for regular information at PaulWellerFanPodcast.com Hosted on Acast.
