Rick Holden is a Manchester-based music producer from Droylsden, crafting high-energy dance, trance and hardstyle driven by melody and atmosphere. His journey began in the early 1990s, composing on home computers before progressing to a Roland XP-50 and Cubase, and eventually embracing modern DAWs and plugins. Blending uplifting, cinematic soundscapes with powerful dancefloor rhythms, Rick’s music draws inspiration from genre icons such as Cappella, Sash!, Scooter and Harris & Ford.
