Yup thats what i call progressive.
Get the point? My new youngling. Before you use a word as broad as progressive, first learn its meaning in correlation to the music and then you can talk about progressive. Im sorry but none of that music you posted is progressive.
the helpful reply ratio is 1/5.
a new low i'm sure.
FFS give people a break. the music you guys call progressive now is different than the music called 'progressive' 10 years ago. maybe this guy knows it as it was defined years ago.
BTW check out the last track on the CD resident transmission CD #3. it might be what you're looking for.
Matt Darey pres Li Kwan - Point Zero (Digital Blonde 2004 Remix)
still gives me the

Dont let the "el33ts" get to you, based on the music you like, which was pretty hard to define im sure, you can safely say you basically like epic trance (or, melodic).
Look for ANYTHING by dumonde and alphazone, and look for some 4 strings, Rank 1, jose amnesia stuff im sure youll like it.
One thing is certain, get these 2 choons:
Jose Amnesia - The Eternal (Nu Nrg Remix)
Pervading Call - Destiny (ANY mix)
actually most stuff by alphazone has this hi-nrg peak which you're talking about....
dj kim - time and space(alphazone remix)
dumonde - never look back(original mix)
mat silver & tony burt - ultimate wave(alphazone remix)
dave joy - second chase(alphazone remix)
altitude - altitude(shokk remix)
earth inc - realize(original instrumental remix)
svenson - inside outside
i think these are the kind of tracks you're looking for?
i do not disagree with any of you. i was just trying to emphasize that none of that is or ever was progressive and he needs to learn what progressive really is before labeling music as it.

for those who helped thank you most of the songs you told me to get are fantastic and just what im after. for those who didnt... if you looked at a previous reply, this style of music is hard to define. listen to the songs and give me a label i can use. my opinion of progresive trance is such that it starts simple - drums n bass - with a simple melody, builds on all of that, then the melody takes over. although progressive is a broad term, i narrowed it down my adding in more words after it, i was tryin to get a little help from a few people, and i was trying to make it easy for you guys to understand what i was after (filtering out irrelevant search results if u must). if my OPINION is not the same as yours then there is no need to patronise me, once again it is a hard genre to define so i would gladly accept any names for the genre of music i posted earlier.

Hey mate, try stuff by Nu NRG. They have a similarish style to alphazone, but Nu NRG are very melodic.
Try:
Nu NRG - Free Fall
- Dreamland
- Aloa P
- Butterfly
Hope that helps!
Don't let all these flamers get to ya mate, a lot of people here think they know everything about music, but I bet a lot of them wouldnt even know what a bar is.
Listen to some Ron Van Den Beuken songs or Airbase - for me they always have high energy
Try these 2 songs:
Sayla-"Second Thoughts"
Aegan-"Debris" (M.I.D.O.R. vs. Six4eight Remix)

| Progressive Trance definition from Wikipedia Progressive trance (sometimes melodic trance) is popular sub-genre in trance music. It has elements of fast techno music and ambient music. The basic formula of trance became even more focused on the anthemic qualities and melodies, moving away from predictable arppegiated analog synth patterns (aka acid synth lines). Acoustic elements and spacey pads became popular, compositions leaned towards incremental changes (aka progressive structures), sometimes composed in thirds (like Brian Transeau frequently does), buildups and breakdowns became more elaborate and intense. The sound became more and more ethereal and heavenly. This sound came to be known as epic trance (sometimes called melodic trance or anthem trance), and became the foundation of what the modern progressive trance sound is today. The structure of progressive trance is different from a typical techno track. The introduction generally starts with slower ambient beats. Following this section is a "breakdown" and then the main melody. There are build-ups with faster beats, and the track usually concludes with an "outro" that typically slows down as the track ends, though it can be fast. Electronic effects and vocals are usually in both the intro and the coda. Progressive trance became popular because of the build-ups of beats and sparing use of vocals. Phrases can be any multiple of 4 bars (4-8-12-16 etc.) in most typical progressive trance tracks. Phrases usually begin with the introduction of a new or different melody, or the introduction of hi-hats to the track. In progressive trance there may be four more simultaneous layers. Known artists in this electronic music genre include James Holden, Luke Chable, Transa, 4Strings, DJs Sasha and John Digweed. Newer artists include Terje Bakke, The Last Atlant, Hydroid, Gerry Cueto. |
