P.S. Prog sucks

prog may suck in your "opinion"

but noone can argue which is more "original"

prog wins, im sorry.

Are you sure? Based on what concept of "originality"? They're both working on different elements, how can you say one is more original than the other? If someone started to produce prog at 165 BPM, the kick was reversed and it had owls singing instead of vocals, it would be pretty damn original, but that's not the case, is it?

No genre is better than the other

In my opinion, 2003 is trying to rival 1999 for the greatest year of trance. The tunes that have been released this year have been unreal!!!!

RIGHT on Maaz. I agree 100%

As a firm advocate of Progressive Trance, seeing the constant division between fanatical progheads and trancers troubles me. It's much like a socialist in the midst of the Cold War.

Anyhow, this is my take: Progressive definitely takes more time and patience to appreciate, hence the whole idea that tranceaddicts "mature" into progressive fans. But the argument misses a key point: just because someone comes to appreciate progressive doesn't mean they then suddenly dislike trance. I happen to like both.

Bottom line: progressive is more difficult to understand, but that doesn't make it "better" than trance. Hard House and Hardstyle, on the other hand, still both suck.

Reso is "gOuRYeLLa~!", and I'm pretty sure all he's trying to do is ridicule "prog elitists" with these posts, so I wouldn't pay attention to him.

I can't believe the amount of elitism expressed by both sides of the Progressive vs Trance debate.

Erhm .. don't know if you are referring to Armin van Buuren, but if you are, I feel sorry for you and your knowledge of electronic music.

If you are going to keep waiting for Mr. Verwest to get better at mixing, you'll have to wait for a long time. He is only getting worse.

And I find it rather entertaining how all of you jackasses who slag us for being elitist ****s for liking prog house come and shit on us like you are so much better. Nothing like being hypocritical.

Agree. Proggheads should start their own website and stop knocking Trance. This is the best year for trance since 1999; I can't believe people would knock this shit for progg of all genres

2000/01 was the year of prog over here.

what next, you all turn to hardhouse next year?

lmao good call ste, as i was readin this thread i realised more than half replying where usta's and so yeah they are a year or a few out of wot is actually happening.

imo this year has seen trance come back to the fore after a couple of years of being quiet but this year it has come back in a different form. the electro thing from last year is still around and the whole tech-trance thing aka marco v & igor s has blown up big time.

name one trance song..

ill name a prog song..

we will see which one is more original ok?

progressive consists of complex drum layers and pads...

its not some cheesy 4x4 beat, 2 drumrolls-> climax, then a fucking breakdown..

u obviously havent even heard prog so i think you should listen to BOTH sides then make a decision.

and are you a fob or something, because u sure as hell sound like one.

edit: WHO THE FUCK IS GOURYELLA?!?!?!?

alright so if u feel prog has all those elements which justifies it to be original,does that make it better? who the fuck cares if its more original...OOOOOO its got all the layers complex drum beats yaddi yaddi yadda its still boring shit...yes i have listened to prog b4 and i couldn't stand it so sorry im sticking to trance
since when was a 4x4 beat, 2 drumrolls climax breakdown cheesy? those are the elements of a trance song...which is the trance we all listen to...so you saying its cheesy is obviously your opinion not fact...so i guess all the classics like airwave out of the blue urban train are all cheesy then...

whats up with you calling me a fob...is that supposed to be funny? sorry is my english grammar not good enough for your KOREAN ass dumbshit? sorry...fobs don't score 720 on their SAT2 writing sections...
