Originally posted by dj_palm to me it has something to do with progression in the track, it starts one place and go and go hopefully with a good drive, and ends up another place. but realy... almost all edm that builds to anything are progressive. so the most progressive genre must be older trance. maybe

No, that's bullshit. A common misconception.

Progressive in music means "it furthers the sounds of the genre". It's music that claims to be forward-thinking.

In dance music, "progressive" was coined to describe the music of Leftfield, which was called progressive house because it broke away from contemporary house sounds. Leftfield implemented strong elements of dub and African music into their music, as well as punk, which was new and exciting at the time. Progressive house was originally house music that used new sounds or sounds from other genres.

Progressive trance followed, because it was a new type of trance distinct from the classic German sound. It had more cutting-edge production, more melodic influence and a different sound. It actually took a lot from progressive house, with artists like BT making progressive house that sounded more and more like trance.

Now, the use of "progressive" just means that the style claims to be forward-thinking within its genre. Note that the word comes from progressive rock in the 70s, which was all about taking rock music to new levels of production and musical complexity.

it means you need a dictionary

For me house/techno is pure groove and rythem.

Trance is an uplifting feel that gives you goosebumps when it builds good and explodes even better.

Progressive would be something that plays with my head. Makes me stoned in a way? Takes my mind from one point to another point which i can't predict. But the song is mostly repeating with nice soundscapes and deep basses and such.
In a way for me. good prog music is mysterious music that makes you think allot.

Great examples for me are

Andre absolut - Digital supsense.
Kaito - The Universe.
