its not exactly been progressive for the past few months imo, am sick of hearing the same sound. ive been playing on a prog edge for over 10 years and recently is the worst i can remember for quality tracks.
although it does pass a couple of hours a day trawling beatport and alike listening to rubbish and coming out with 2 tracks
i also think people need to re-think what they're putting out before labelling it as prog.
a perfect example is Kim Leoni - Medicine which i nearly puked over when i was trawling today, i mean WTF ??
apologies, rant over

woohey. Finally some guys that know their music. Guy J is rockin at the moment. It is true about some of the online labels and such releasing some awfull tripe altogether. But if you know your own sound you like, Dj's, Producers, Labels etc etc Then I think what your listening to will be considerably more consistent. But then its harder to come across the real gems. I love Prog House and will never forget the likes of Northern Exposure but lately I myself and gearing towards tech house. But I try to stick to the deeper more ''prog'' sounding.

im from the UK, Newcastle to be exact so am in Shindig every week.
Saw digweed a couple of saturdays ago and he was awful for the 2nd time on the bounce up here. shame really as he's still up there for me.
danny howells is still mr consistant imo, maybe not fully prog anymore but still an amazing dj and a genuinly nice guy. johns a sound bloke as well but he played very little that he's recently played on his transitions show.
you can't beat the original sasha & digweed renaissance triple pack, amazing stuff.
i dug out my vinyl copy of northern exposure 1 to rip to .wav a couple of weeks ago, that has also stood the test of time.
i get a lot of stuff from smaller netlabels, theres some good about from the little know labels that don't really get a look in on beatport, dj download and alike. unfortunatly i don't have as much time to dig around as i used to.
ive been clubbing since 1988 and have always been into a bit deeper, darker tracks so thats where i got into prog and for me personally adding a bit of tech was a natural progression, its the rougher edge of it that appeals to me but i'll always be a prog head in the main.

Man electro does my head in. Did you say you've got Northern Exposure in .WAV? Is it up somewhere for download?
How are you guys mixing at the moment? Turntable , Digital? I don't really have the space to mix at the moment myself but come the start of march I'll be back up and running with my own place just outside of town. Cant wait.
I mess about a bit with Traktor now. Nothing Major just to have a mix I can listen to myself really. I also use Logic Pro for some recording/production, but don't have the space again. CDJ 1000 here I come.
Maybe I'll post a mix over the weekend.

thanks for the comment Auto, i'll grab yours this evening.
i didn't get around to ripping northern exposure 'yet', its in the to do pile but i can move it up a bit and get round to it sooner.
ive been using ableton heavily for 3 years now, i still have my cdj800s & an djm800 and i still really enjoy using them but i find it very limiting. waiting for the Ableton - Serato announcement at NAMM in a couple of months. that would answer prayers of myself and a lot of other Live users who started out on vinyl.
i started using it in conjunction with my cdj's for throwing loops and samples in here and there and once i got really involved i just progressed (no pun intended) to using Live as my main medium, after all your there to make people dance no matter what your using. unless you do a Switch and turn up, hoy a pre-recorded set up and just eq it.
David Amo & Julio Navas vs. D-Nox - Memory Cell is a very nice track indeed as is whatever that lawler tune is, gabriel ananda is class.

The Lawler tune is called Carnival. I'm not a huge fan of ableton myself. I have tried it in the past but I have been considering giving it another go.
Not sure. Whats this about Ableton and Serato. Sounds interesting.
I have Logic Mainstage also but I haven't got round to it yet really. How do you reckon the 800's are limiting? I've got no experience with them. Just old fashioned 1210's and cdj 1000's which I find fantastic.

its not just the 800s but 1000s and turntables as well. i use a lot of loops and after using live for so long i couldn't re-create a lot of stuff i do in Live on cdjs or decks, not unless i had a few hands.
what i miss is the old feel of mixing and hopefully the partnership will sort it out.
