Just for an LOL at the irony of that statement in a very specific situation, please see mix in sig.

Yeah, my frustration and sadness of the non-existence of the prog-house I once knew combined with my dislike of today's house music congtributes to knee-jerk posts like mine before.

But then again, unless I'm totally missing something here, big name DJs nowadays seldomly ever play tracks older than than say 3 years old. I've heard Sasha throw in an old track in a 3 hour set in 2006 but thats about it from what I've heard.

It's alright man, I just thought the fact that specifically the term "prog house from 2002" was pretty funny considering the release date of Love Story and the fact that the set just went up like two days ago.

And I don't think you're altogether wrong in what you said. Just pleasantly hilarious coincidence.



Edit: And you mean to tell I'm NOT A BIG NAME?!?

I could list a slew of DJs who play plenty of old records, but probably not much old prog.

Anyways, carry on being stuck in this very small sliver of electronic music's past.

Come back to me when you start getting PDiddy into your booth.

At least a lot of those sets got recorded and you probably have a good 3 weeks worth of mp3s of them

Just dropped Halo - Dark Clouds on Sunday night. Good music is good music regardless of the genre and if you can make it flow with the newer stuff you are playing then why not

I still play Groove Is In The Air from time to time. Its just hard to fit that old prog into a contemporary tech set and make it sound good.


Props to you

Haha, dude it's not like there's anything wrong with it. But totally writing off any new music because it doesn't sound like the BSPF is just silly. Missing out on tons of great music

Exactly what I meant. By your first post I got the idea that you were implying that we should just forget old school prog and stick to what's coming out today.

I'm trying to say, it's all about playing good music and old school bedrock stuff is good music, so is some stuff coming out today. Date released is completely non relevant. Prog is still playable.

good piece of music.

The current rejection of progressive is eerily familiar of the 2002 rejection of trance.

Regarding the track, it's nice, but feels a bit like one style shoehorned into another.

Which genius came up with that term?


Posted by bas on May-23-2008 07:32:

Not sure, I saw it on another board.


Posted by Omega_Blue on May-23-2008 21:11:

the melody reminds me slightly of "rancho relaxo"..

this tune is ok, but forgetable i think.

You misquoted it.

I believe it was actually 'Bog Standard Prog Fodder', a term they used to quite often use on the Global Underground forum.

Great release from Bedrock, the start of a relaunch for the label. Next up is Djinxx 'Incarnation' in late June.

Sounds like the tunes Kosmas Epsilon was making a few years back...

Not really impressed with this one, he's done way better.

To tell you the truth, I don't get the whole basis for the rejection of 2002-2005 era progressive... Only thing I can think of is that the sound appears a bit old-hat and thus not agreeing with the term "progressive"... but apart from that, it's not like you can call prog "cheesy" like you could with turn of the century epic trance.

Board I got it from definitely used "boring shit prog fodder"

Sebo K - Horizons

... is what I was thinking of. Not all that similar, but enough so to consistently make me think of Horizons each time I hear it.
