Anyone care to help me with recommendations? (prog house/breaks)

Im looking for tracks similar in style to

Cassius - The Sound of Violence (Narcotic Thrust Club Mix)
Planet Funk - Chase the Sun
Way Out West

Basically, non trance electronic dance music which is more accessible to non-trance enthusiasts and not so often heard on radio stations (i.e. basement jaxx, prodigy etc.).

Cheers for the help

planet funk - the switch

So basically you're looking for progressive house / progressive breaks.

There's a lot to work with there.

Way out West can do no wrong in my eyes. Everything I've heard from them has been gold, or at least decent.

Planet Funk is a bit cheesy (or at least that track is), but not bad.

I don't know if this qualifies, but give:
Simply Red - Fake (Love to Infinity mix)
Simply Red - Sunrise (Love to Infinity mix)

a shot. I can't really describe the sound. Some of my favorites though.

Another question I had in mind is what genre that music was?

Thanks for the heads up- will definitely check out the remixes of those simply red songs.

Im basically trying to get a soundtrack together for a party and putting pure trance on is just going to put off all the people not into the scene, and hip hop is just going to annoy me!

Hip Service - Badaboom Badabing
Derek Howell - What You Wanna Do
Hernan Cattaneo - Behind The Music

U.N.K.L.E. - Reign (remixes) + their album Never Never Land
A lot of Trafik stuff, most of them are high quality prog or breaks including their album Bullet.
Most of these guys are known but still the tunes are massive. If u have the chance to buy Bullet, buy it

Posted by Noctone on Dec-09-2004 09:11:

Try some Digital Witchcraft, they're more along the prog breaks line I'd say. They've got some great tunes, as well as a couple of great sets. I still listen to their February Oslo Nights set almost every day.

I started off with Luke Chable (still listening to them now), then went on to explore more stuffs by WOW, Hybrid, Grayarea, Fretwell, Shiloh, Sasha, James Holden, Madoka... n more.

Prog house/breaks = smart choice.
