Digweed's Mixes and live performances are more about mixing and mood regulation...it's not happy music...doesn't appeal to alot of people.

It's two completely different genres, IMO, different strokes for different folks.

I just dig the darker music, I don't particularly care for max graham, him I find boring, the uplifting progressive is what bores me. If I want uplifting, I want a slammin PvD set.

Hmmm i don't understand....i only know one genre as progressive and that isn't tiesto his style.

It is digweed,danny howells, sander kleinenberg etc...

tiesto plays TRANCE.....nothing else...but lately it is wrong to say that he spins trance so people say it is progressive (trance) FUCK it it is just trance..just like pvd armin, ferry corsten etc.

Don't get me wrong but i like sander kleinenberg as well ferry and armin.....but why can't we just say that he plays trance...coz what is trance otherwise?

The word "Trance" is just a buzzword. Just like you wouldn't call American bands like Pearl Jam or Alice in Chains, Rock and roll, you can't really call what tiesto spins as just "Trance".

The term trance was coined with the opening of R&S Records in Ghent, Belgium and Harthouse/Eye Q Records in Frankfurt, Germany. R&S defined the sound early on with singles like "Energy Flash" by Joey Beltram, "The Ravesignal" by CJ Bolland, and others by Robert Leiner, Sun Electric, and Aphex Twin. It refered to a music that used metallic synthesizer lines, and repeated drum beats, putting the listener in a trance...almost no melody was utilized. This is TRANCE music.

The classic German sound had changed somewhat though, and the term "progressive" trance gained favor to describe influences from the smoother end of house and Euro dance.

I know I'm being anal, it's just driving me insane.

^^^^ ummmm

progressive is so wide.. it covers house, trance, breakbeat, tribal and many others... i dont know how ppl can say that they hate progressive, cuz theres bound to be sum prog tune u like (whether or not uve worked out what prog is)... i think of all the sub-genres its by far the most varied.

ILLOGICAL PROGRESSION IS A FUTURE FUNK PHENOMENA

peace

well all i have to say is on the progressive side PvD has some tight ass sets as well as my hero Digweed. i dont think i can judge progressive as a like/hate ordeal. eather way they spin great musik that falls under 'trance' we should just leave the sub catagories out of this and enjoi the musik
peace
