i dont get the obsession here with genres and categories.
for me the only thing that matters about trance is that it is in rhythm terms, constant. its not trance in my humble opinion if it breaks and drops very often for example because it takes you out of that hypnotic rhythm. but beyond that...go nuts. everything else is marketing shit or is used to make finding tunes of a certain style in a record store easier.
progressive just means that the song builds to a point. is doesnt matter what that is but progressive songs dont go verse, chorus, verse, chorus. they build in layers. for that reason, a good majority of psytrance is necessarily progressive (not all of it though) since a typical psy tune tends to build up to a climactic point which happens towards the end of the track. theres a short breakdown and then it tails off quickly right at the end. its just a convention which you see alot of. examples: jaia - breathing ocean. space cat - beam me up. protoculture - silicon sunrise. cosma - cusanam. etc etc.
