Wally Some of the bangers Perel puts in her sets definitely sounds like it was heavily influenced by old school tune age - hook recordings and their trancier sound comes to mind - some stuff almost sounds like repurposed happy hardcore - not the golden age of prog but still kinda refreshing when so much stuff takes itself way too seriously these days.
Wally rhouses ‘Music that stimulates the mind as well as the heart’ was my own ultra wanky way of describing things back in the day.
bosstrabs Wally My favourite was some skinny, speccy bloke in Renaissance Nottingham (I think the club was called Media) who looked madoutofit, bouncing off the walls, when we asked what he was on he said “just high on the music, mate”.
Mad_Cyril My point, albeit brief, was that Prog fans spout an awful lot of shite about ‘the journey’.
alistair Mad_Cyril Indeed. The last time a a Sasha set took me “on a journey” were in the mid 90s when he was playing half of Ima in them.
BlainSA Mad_Cyril That was your suggestion? Yeh, pretty difficult to get that from your limited wording, but I’d agree for sure that it isn’t.
hugopal bosstrabs Serious point by MC. It was all about the journey. If “the journey” is from 125bpm melodic house to 128bpm breakbeats then I don’t give a shit.
Dan The Prog journey…..122bpm Deep House (ADID) to 130bpm (Drumcode) They never quite wind it down…Full throttle tp the end.
ScottBailey Dan The Prog journey…..122bpm Deep House (ADID) to 130bpm (Drumcode) Thought it was 124bpm bongos………………….. 6 hours of bongos later …………………to 124bpm more bongos ?
