Holding Hands Records
Holding Hands exists because nobody was writing back. Liam Wachs, who records as Desert Sound Colony, had tracks that worked in his sets and a demo folder that kept going unanswered, so in 2017 he stopped sending them out and put them out himself.
The roster stayed close to home. Wachs has said almost all of it comes from friends, people he went to school with or knows from Leeds, and the catalogue doesn't hold to one genre so much as to that circle: house and techno with a breakbeat pull, traceable back to the dubstep he grew up on.
