I just wanna add that SJ is looking for that analog-sounding, UK prog sound
This track pays homage to the 90's. It came out last month.
Matt gets it.
Massive new compilation drop from Haws, who've been quiet for a while, probably because they've been collating bangers for this bad boy. I'm a little bit sad that Fazack track has such a puny low end, otherwise it'd be the choice cut from the whole comp:

A lot of these producers should've been born 20 years earlier. They have the classic prog style down to a science.

Not sure I would have remembered or noticed if you hadn't pointed it out!
Relieved to see there isn't too much crossover between yours/Jacks and my latest mix. "Time Out" was going to be my track 1 but in the end it didn't work out that way, great opener though.

Mate, you know perfectly well this isn't the thread for tracks like these.
to revisit this - and i acknowledge sanity's reference to old-school analog prog and that i picked the wrong thread - but im still interested in your opinion of the tracks posted. good/bad/genre/place in the club/good or bad for raping sushipunk when he least expects it etc...
despite (or because of?) my amazing ignorance i've loved reading all the discussions and arguments here about genres, tracks, scenes, clubs, countries and s etc which shaped the universe but given TA is now as popular as one of lira's diatribes and those discussions are pretty rare - this is all i have! :D
come on, dad me jack.

I don't think they're very good. Neither one is trance, I would hesitate to even call them progressive house really. Not enough groove. Both sound like Yotto tracks from 8 years ago with those melodramatic power chords.
The thing is, before this revival sound came around I was, of course, playing the kind of progressive house that Hernan Cattaneo and Nick Warren deal in. The tracks you've shared would certainly fit in with that scene, but I would have passed them by if I'd found them on Beatport. There is undoubtedly some gold in that scene but you would have to sift through a hundred bland, wishy washy tracks to find that gold. I was always trying to find ways to inject a bit of energy and nastiness into it by adding some tech house, some acid, some old tracks that could fit in. How successful I was at that mission is for others to decide, but once this revival sound came around I just binned off the whole enterprise quite quickly. The tracks in this thread have the energy and the acidic rawness built into them. You don't have to sweat and slave as a DJ to make it sound like filthy, nasty drug music. It's already there.

Thanks so much mate! Fascinating. Have usually assumed anything ive been into was trance or trance-adjacent/relying on 1234 or 1231 chords etc. But if those tracks arent even prog house im as lost as ever :stongue:
I acknowledge your general disdain for melodic trance but youd be surprised how awful it is being a cheesemeister these days. Id be stoked to find 20 decent tracks a month. More like 2-3 a year if im lucky.
Thanks for your opinion! :)

Beatport has the category "melodic house and techno", which basically means "Cattaneo prog but with even less groove". That's what I'd call these. Beatport has the Arodes track filed under that category.

After playing a progressive set on Luminosity this year Daniel Skyver started a Progressive Nostalgia playlist, maybe nice to share, it's from his FB page:
I know there's probably not a massive market on my FB for old prog mixes. I make them coz I enjoy doing them and listening to them but thought I would make them available on my Soundcloud anyway so I've started a Progressive Nostalgia playlist for them on there with 3 brand new mixes I'm really quite proud of now available. Link is in comments if ya interested.
