Sig should give it away.
I'll let you keep guessing.

I think at the moment there is a bit of a prog-trance overload, but there is quite a few gems in there. At least its taken some heat off uplifting for a while..............

I was actually looking at it the other way around, The world doesn't know has obviously had a lot of work put into it, especially to create that sort of sound, whereas I know you're afraid is just jumping on the prog breaks bandwagon, and makes it even more generic by slapping in some overused matrix sample........

Originally posted by smallSHEEP I guarentee most of the people here saying they don't like McProg actually like supersaw power trance.

I think you'll find the people arguing with valid points, are actually the ones who like proper progressive, and thats the entire point of the thread

Man, you people are slow (not directed at Az).

I've told you over and over why I think McProg productions are shit, and you can't come up with a single counter argument.

thats because we dont really care that you think its shit, and we arent as pathetic as you and therefore dont hate you back for the music you listen to, even if we think its shit. why argue?

Listen to your shit music all you want, but you'll have to admit that it's badly produced, unoriginal and unimaginative. The alternative is... come up with a counter argument.

or?
I see another internet suicide thread coming up

all McProg producers/djs/supporters ought to be strapped to chairs and beaten with heavy mining equipment for their shortcomings.

end of thread.







j/k, though to each his own i suppose. there's no such thing as "proper progressive" as there will be perpetual disparity in opinions on what's "proper" and "good" prog. hence, the term: individuality...

No whats unimaginative is your idea of proper prog.

ingredients for a proper prog track:

4/4 kick drum
filtered loop
tape delay with a long feedback
filtered bass playing a 3/4 pattern
random farting noise

why do "proper" prog fans act like their shit doesn't stink?

There is as much trite boring unimaginative music in that genre as well.
Sure it isnt as widely exposed, but does that make it any better? I know you protonradio heads have heard shit you don't like on there before.


Remember the distorted deep voice + 4 note simple bass line + lotsa samples from "real drums" equation?

That shit is getting beat to death worldwide too


So you think that the new stuff is better? All your doing is adding some breaks and splicing in some electro now, ooooh, how original and innovative! Yeah you guys really are breaking new ground by pounding that deep sound, bleh.
