Post your favorite Bedrock releases

I can't say this has been my favorite of labels that have released progressive, but going back to some of the older stuff that was put out, I have to admit they are a bit timeless now. So let us know what your favorites are, can be mix albums as well as LP's.







And I'll refrain from posting up Heaven Scent. Not that I don't like it, but unless you're a fuckin' noob everyone should know that one already.

Morgan Page and Gregory Shiff ft Astrid Suryanto - All I Know

Guy Gerber - Stoppage Time

I finally got to hear him play this live at District 36 in NYC 2 years ago. It was unfuckingbelievable.

just to name a few.

I'm gonna hijack this thread a bit, and talk about Bedrock the production team, not the label (which was good, but perhaps slightly overrated). I would argue that Bedrock were the best progressive/trance production team ever, and retired the alias at just the right time to preserve their record. Here are a few favourites, including a couple you might not have heard:

Really loved this from Nick Muir. I think it would be magnificent if used properly in a set:

The Bedrock Breaks sublabel: http://www.discogs.com/label/Bedrock+Breaks

Gotta agree with you all on Bedrock. One of the best collab efforts in electronic music imo.

Anyways, this is my fav remix of a Bedrock track, just got it in the mail. The etched Bedrock Label on the B side is actually pretty cool

I always thought the label started out really strong with some really strong prog releases together with the Black sublabel which released some of the best dark proghouse out there.

Some of my favourite tracks:

Pole Folder & CP - Apollo Vibes (Young American Primitive's Spacecraft Communicator Mix)
Bedrock - Heaven Scent (Pob's Seismic Dub) yeah i know but POB takes the track to a completely different level.
Science Dept. - Repercussion (Funk Function's Future Mix)

And my three favourite Digweed & Muir remixes!

React To Rhythm - Intoxication (Bedrock Mix)
Luzon � The Baguio Track (Bedrock Remix)
Chakra - I Am (Bedrock remix)

I honestly cant think of a single bad track ever released under the bedrock production team. Not one! The only other similar aliases or teams I can think of with a similar track record, ie no bad releases all quality in the progressive/trance genre are Humate, kid paul (as long as you ignore that first release when he was 14), visions of shiva (but way too little releases), the klf (if you believe they helped usher in trance and progressive as i do), and finally spicelab. Amazing track record that holds up well against all the other ones i just listed. only argument you can really make against bedrock was just how little they released over an extended time. As if they themselves wanted to only add that name to the best they could come up with and hence hard to judge against other producers who released much more stuff without worrying about keeping a certain alias or name pure.

Quality over quantity. Leftfield are another example of a group that hardly ever put stuff out, but when they did it was almost always special.

only reason i didnt state leftfield before was i dont think they fall into the progressive/trance genre, progressive house yes, but the real progressive house before it became progressive trance really, my own pet peeve actually that i think the majority of late 90s progressive house is actually progressive trance. When i think of progressive house i think of the beginning of sasha and digweeds renaissance mix. to me the last real progressive house song before the trance infusion became too apparent is this little gem, might be my favorite bedrock song actually and the one song i never heard played live by diggers all the times ive seen him:

genius from Holden



and of my favourite Bedrock productions

All my former favorites haven been already posted so i'd stick to what they've released this year that has not been mentioned yet but still are good:

All are good.

The most recent one that sticks out is Henry Saiz & Guy J - Meridian.

I wasn't including them on a list of top prog trance/house producers, I was merely mentioning them as a classic example of quality over quantity.

ahhh yup.

Yes the Seismic dub version of Heaven Scent, much better than the original remix.

Here's another one, remix, breakbeatish, although not as good

I like this one. I can definitely picture shiny green emeralds in my mind while listening to this. Rare for me to find a track title that matches the mood.
