  • Wrecking Ball / Peak Time Power Prog - Best Example Needed

Old-Dutch I have. Ride deserves it more, hence the fact that S & D smashed the granny out of it for ages

    It doesn’t matter who played it. It is no way, shape or form peak time wrecking ball prog.

    I actually own it and like it by the way. Just doesn’t fit the brief of this thread

      Old-Dutch its your opinion mate. No more valid than mine. As for rules, fuck them. I am not the board equivalent of a covid warden.

        Fair dos. We obviously have very different interpretations here

        Mad_Cyril Can I post some Donk?

        I could hardly believe my ears when I heard a contemporary US donk track in a recent techno set:

          Knowing DT he is probably canning that these days

            hugopal I heard it in a Bjarki set.

            Oh then danny is 1000% on it, but he’ll be trundling it out at a predictable 128

                Danny pathetically chases hip techno these days. Has been for several unfortunate years now. Bjarki is big enough that I expect he is now on DT’s radar.

                  Very nearly gave birth to triplets during the breakdown of this track in The Redbox. Digweed taking absolutely zero prisoners in the final hour.

                    Butties before the club again?

                      Sounds like a low T version of this classic

                      zackster Danny pathetically chases hip techno these days

                      Really? Do you have any examples of any sets of him playing such things? Not that I’m entirely doubting you, just curious.

                        I’ve only seen one, personally. He did an insane show in like 2019 where he was playing like 2009 ostgut style stuff. I distinctly remember hearing multiple Function and Surgeon tunes, which cracked me up. Have heard anecdotally from several people that he is still going around hammering techno at house gigs. He also did a funny interview where he talked about his history in the NYC techno scene, which cracked me up. I don’t claim to be massive ny techno head, but I certainly don’t recall Danny rolling with Frankie Bones, Adam X, or anything of the Sonic Groove guys/gals, nor do I remember him ever playing the Thursday parties at The Limelight.

                          zackster Frankie Bones

                          One of my earlier rave memories was Bones hammering this and bringing the absolute house down. I must’ve been like 14 years old. Good times.

                              jonattonyeah oddly enough, the first party I ever attended was Frankie Bones and Dj Venom. They played a rave in an old laser tag venue not far from my house. Completely blew my mind.

                                  One of the biggest reasons why I will always respect Frankie Bones. Dude would play anywhere. So many DJs thought they were too good for the rave scene, dingy warehouses, or playing to us kids. Bones was never like that. Him, DJ Dan, your man Josh Wink….without them I wouldn’t be into this music.

                                  I also remember one UK jock who would always play the raves in SF - Andrew Weatherall.
