prog is short for "progressive house"... yes, sasha and digweed are prog djs because they spin prog... you can't get any more progger than that

Maybe with more melody and less bass lines...

Many prog tunes have:

1) slower tempos
2) more driven by rhythm rather than melody
3) dynamic basslines
4) dark sound

example producers/dj's:
sasha, digweed, steve porter, sander kleinenberg, james holden, noel sanger... etc...

also anything released on bedrock
