Will Holland

Will Holland is a Worcestershire native, but Colombia-based musician, DJ, and record producer.

He records under various guises, namely Quantic, The Quantic Soul Orchestra, and The Limp Twins. His music draws upon elements of salsa, bossa nova, soul, funk and jazz. Holland plays guitars, bass, double bass, piano, organ, saxophone and percussion. Much of his sound is original composition with little in the way of sampling of other artists' material.

Releases

Under Quantic, he has released four LPs ("The Fifth Exotic", "Apricot Morning", "Mishaps Happening" and "An Announcement To Answer") on the Tru Thoughts label.

The Quantic Soul Orchestra have released three LPs ("Stampede" in 2003, "Pushin' On" in 2005 and "Tropidélico" in 2007) and have also collaborated on a project with Soul/Funk artist Spanky Wilson to produce the LP "I'm Thankful".

The Limp Twins have released one LP, "Tales From Beyond The Groove". He has also taken on remix duties for almost 30 songs.

Will also has his own label "Magnetic Fields" on which he releases heavy soul and funk.

His song "Time is the Enemy" was featured in Café del Mar Volume 9.
