Band Members: Holding Pattern are Wayne and Stu in their semi-electronic, experimental jazz-pop guise. Andy is dragged in as session drummer and squashed down onto one track for each of the songs. Wayne wears his producer's hat and engineer's cap for this LP and plays all the bass (Stu's role in Resin) while keeping an archaic Akai sampler on the go. Stu plays guitars (Wayne's role in Resin) and keyboards. Vocal duties are shared. The result is a rather cinematic affair; a musical travelogue that takes your ears from Detroit to Tokyo via Antibes.
Influences: Miles Davis with Bill Evans (I would sell my soul to play piano like Bill evans [stu]), Richard Wright, Koop, Jukka Eskola, Pink Floyd, Talk Talk, Mark Hollis, Steely Dan, 10cc, Brian Eno, Tangerine Dream, Herbert, Kyoto Jazz Massive, Cinematic Orchestra, Ultra Vivid Scene, Air, Blue States, Single Gun theory, Falling Joys, Chad's Tree
