Dark tribal progressive house/trance - where is it?

That ravey shit you used to hear all the time in the early 00's. Pitch Black, Automatic Records, Hooj Choons, Forensic, and the heavier Bedrock stuff. Where do you find that sound these days? Anyone?

I guess your not looking for the Coldharbour Stuff? Because there is some pretty nice rather dark coldharbour stuff around 04/05.

I mean who's representing that sound now?

Mo-Shic? He still props up that kind of sound.

To be honest, the fate of dark prog and the fate of Bedrock are pretty much the same: slowly turned into peak time tech-house.

No one?
I mean there still is some nice, dark progressive trance/progressive House around, but it doesn't sound like the stuff did back in the day.

like system j said, this went the tech route. Many kids are using a term that i absolutely despise these days: "Progno".

Yeah Moshic is the only name that comes to mind.

Everyone else is going techno/tech-house, sadly (imo).

it isn't the same, but there are still elements of the prog of old in the music of new.

I love 70's rock, but i am honest when i say that if every rock song today was made following the 70's formula it would not be a good thing.

Prog will come back, just like disco has died and re emerged more times than Elvis in a tabloid. Trends are cyclical.

There's more to prog than just the dark prog sound, anyway. There's still lots of good progressive being made, just not much of the dark stuff.

i hear you, my statement was very generalized as per my intention.

Good subject. I was thinking about starting a thread about whatever happened to awesome late 90's and early 2000's dark prog. Still a good production here and there. Few and far between though. Oh and.....bump.

Yeah. Hooj had stuff all over the map but they made their name with The Baseline Track by Medway, which is still one of the darkest pieces of electronic music out there.

I managed to find "Propaganda" by Gardner & Thomas in the dusty used trance bin at Grammaphone for like $3.

Great thread! I am really into this sound at the moment and was going to start looking into this myself. I'm hoping that some people will be able to prove us wrong and show that this stuff is being made still.

Not sure this is exactly the type of prog you are looking for but check it out and let me know:

Alex Ocampo - Kadesh (Kintar Sudam rmx)
Frangellico - Zonda
Mikas - Temperamental (Album edit)
Jaia - Hypnostatique (Jimmy van M remix)



Also Kintar Serendipity album released in August.

The whole Progressive Resistance crew (Kintar & Rex, Maindave, Shiva etc).

Wolfmother has some decent stuff.

Thanks so much for the suggestions guys...

^^ This is not so much what I'm talking about but a great example of the ethereal atmospheric stuff. Also looking for this sound as well.

^^ That's the prog sound but it's still too "trancey" for my tastes. (sorry if that sounds elitist or jaded)

Here are a few good (old) examples I can think off:








^should've played that one a lot slower




Tkac & Haverlik - Synthia (original)

I don't know that's all I could really find for now.

one of our "locals" here knows whats up

Try out some Repeat Customer:

It's a bit different but certainly influenced by some of that old proggy sound.

That Killahurtz track is pure BLISS!
