Classical and not-so-classical-at-all: Julia Holter’s music lies at a crossroads similar to the one where artists like Arthur Russell or Laurie Anderson reside. It’s the sound of an artist who has clearly been trained-in this case at Cal Arts with Michael Pisaro and in India singing with harmonium under guru Pashupatinath Mishra-and one that has no problem forgetting everything previously learned, if needed. Holter’s songwriting stems from a mythological reverence of that which is incomprehensibly beautiful.
Her 2007 EP Eating the Stars was a first attempt at musically transcribing this feeling, and her 2011 debut album Tragedy embraced similar strains of shimmer. But it was on 2012’s Ekstasis where everything came together. Critically beloved, it’s the culmination of her young career, a record whose motivating character was best described by Holter herself: Ekstasis reflects, she says, “a desire to get outside of my body and find what I can’t define.”
In her 2013 Red Bull Music Academy lecture, Holter talked about what she learned while attending the University of Michigan, her creative process, recording Ekstasis, and more.

Idk why people complain about the interviewer, I think he was fine tbh. Not the interviewer of the decade, but still nice! And she inspires me so much since I discovered her music & personality.

I guess what people find frustrating is that he makes too many assumptions with his questions, rather than asking open questions. I don't mind that personally, he's engaged and his interviewers feel comfortable. They don't feel like they're being probed or tested and it's got quite a relaxed format.

I liked him during OPN’s, but he comes off almost confrontational at times here. Definitely a totally different vibe from him regardless.
