What crap? What do you think I was labelling "tech prog"? I haven't named any artists, tracks or labels. Furthermore, the sound of progressive has changed a lot over the years. Did React 2 Rhythm sound like Blue Amazon, did Rich Dekkard sound like Moonface? The Delta Heavy shit sounded nothing like what was being called progressive ten years earlier. The reasons you don't want to connect tech prog with "classic prog" are purely sentimental. There were no end of people noticing the tech-house influence on S&D around the time of Delta Heavy. That dark-prog phase was the beginning of tech hegemony. Sasha and Digweed didn't turn to shit overnight. You just didn't notice the stylistic shift until it was too late.
