Hernan Cattaneo & Soundexile

So these two (three?) have been exceptionally busy over the past couple of years (despite having begun work together years prior), producing a handful of originals and dozens of remixes. Their style seems pretty fixed in this emerging 'new progressive,' which sounds like a post 2012 deep house evolution of the humdrum tech-prog they were pumping out since around 2007, and I have to say it's pretty strong collaboration. Most of their work seems unreleased and produced for the stream and compilations, but here's a studio mix featuring mostly their material:



It's not stuff I would listen to on repeat, but anyone else see quite a bit of potential here?

i enjoy their productions a lot, definitely a strong collab.

Ok heard it this morning. It's good actually, a few cheap tracks but the whole thing is great.

I don't pay'd too much attention for the mixing itself, and as much as I liked the track selection, I think that 2 hours of the same style was way too much. And wtf, almost all the vocals looks like "sidekick - response"

whatever, "infoxication" was good enough to make the mix worth it. what a nice track...

It's a bit late in the day to label Hernan Cattaneo with "quite a bit of potential", no?
rubez
love this track.

I'm referring to this collaborative effort rather than to his career. Again they have an existing history that stretches years back to when they worked together and released on Hernan's own label, but they've been far more prolific and higher profile ever since Hernan compiled for Balance 26, and I frankly find the emerging style to which they're contributing the freshest and fullest in big room dance music since tech house killed progressive house some ten years ago.

The boundaries between deep, tech and progressive have melted considerably in the last few years, and I agree it's a most welcome development. Cattaneo's productions have always been reliable though, whoever he ends up collaboraitng with. I wouldn't say he's made many "highlight of the set" tracks, but almost everything is very playable.
