Releases
A new track every Friday starting May 9. Each single available everywhere DistroKid distributes — Spotify, Apple, Bandcamp, YouTube Music.
About
Be Holden U is the music project of Anthony Holden Ainsworth — Eugene-based producer, IT director, and AI builder.
The catalog is six years deep: 700+ original tracks made in the gaps between client work, network engineering at Looking Glass Community Services, and building a portfolio of software products under Cascadian Tech.
Most of it had been sitting on disk. The 2026 release schedule is the first time these tracks meet the world. Cover art for every single is generated by cypherclaw — an agentic robot that lives in the kitchen, composes its own music, and now illustrates the catalog too.
Production: Ableton Live 12, Push 3, a Focusrite Scarlett 4i4, an Allen & Heath QU-PAC mixer, three QSC K8.2 speakers, a Shure SM7B, and a Moog Theremini.
Sound Production
Long-running sound tech for Portland Ecstatic Dance events at The Den (Wednesdays) and the Medicina Campout. Mobile rig: QSC K8.2s, QU-PAC digital mixer, Bose S1 Pro for portable work.
Software side: I built and run Cascadian Tickets, the production ticketing platform powering the same weekly Portland event. Live in production every Wednesday.
