Sasha on being known as King of Prog:

"I dont even play the records that come out of that scene anymore. They dont intrest me one bit. Some producers that I used to champion still send me their work & it baffles me how they haven't been able to move on. There was a time & place for that sound, though, when John Digweed & I were playing at Twilo, doing these 10 hour sets in a dark room with this amazing sound system that made everything completely overwhelming - but that was 4 bloody years ago"

So what does he consider himself the king of then?

"Sasha is so fucking good, he doesnt even need to play music to be god"



edit before i get flamed into oblivion: the only point im trying to make is that Sasha seems to be abandoning any claims to popularity of style just to stay ahead of the curve, and 90% of all TA's will buy into it. its retarded in my opinion

Pffft... and Sasha doesn't interest the prog scene one bit anymore either. Are we meant to be impressed by his transition from truly progressive EDM into mid-road, anthemic, prog-fodder? "Wow Alex, that mid-warping shit you used to play with Diggers really sounds crap compared to the overplayed, 7-minute build-up tripe you play today..."

Get a grip man! :-/

Sasha will say what he wants, he is rich, in demand globally and has more coke than he can snort. So take it in stride, I think that he more refering to the trance scene than the prog scene. Remember 4 years ago, he played trance till he got fed up with it.
