He's still got a fantastic taste in music. I've really enjoyed a lot his more recent stuff like the last WOW album and his remix of Cafe Del Mariachi.
But hey, I guess we should all listen to some draining deep/tech house with you and RJT. |

I think RJT's still on the Prog. Side of things, at least in part.

His remix was nice, but really just big room prog that doesn't really fit anywhere else. Last time I saw him thats all he played, with terrible mixing to boot.
It felt like a trance set, just one huge prog track after another, little else to hold on to.
But hey, thats just my opinion, no need for lame personal attacks. |

I agree with you, for the most part, but I think the sorry state of progressive has just as much to do with it as Warren. He's doing pretty well considering the massive declines in progressive quality and quantity over the past four years.
It's sad, because nothing has really come along to replace the progressive ethos. For people who don't feel the newer trends, it can be difficult to maintain old standards. |

What is this "Big room prog"? Like...Deadmau5? |

the whole "GU needs an artist that can sell" point of view is completely off because as mentioned already, the brand GU is enough to sell it on it's own. The only reason they haven't is because they are lazy and worn out.
i also love how dj's always kinda jab the online communities because we know better. It's not our fault if dj's/producers music gets stale and boring. they don't have to care about our opinions of course, but it's just kinda funny. |

I can't really comment about Warren's more recent sets because I haven't had the time to listen, but I've never had a problem with him playing a lot of 'big room prog' tunes because he is really good at selecting the best of them. While he plays bigger tunes he tends to pick one's that still have a lot of charm
I did listen to one of his recent sets that was put up on hybridized though, and yeah, that was probably a bit down on his usual standard. |

I just like it when sets go a few places, and he was really sticking to just one sound the whole time.
He does prog well, imo, on GU 24 CD2. |
