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

Amps I’ll have to go look, I had a double vinyl pack with 4 mixes, I think I played the original pitched down quite a bit and the pmt(?) mix maybe (heavier break beats if I remember correctly). I’ll take a look this afternoon and see if I can find it.

      303abuser I had a very prog mix of it I used on the beginning of a mix (c90) at some point, and yeah, it was okay, but, i dunno. In hindsight, I think others did that sound better.

          Amps I’m sure the vocal carried it for me, I loved it from the first time I heard it. Danny Howells put it on NF3(I think? My memory is shit) and I thought it was well placed in that mix.

          edit: i’ve got the original, 16b, 3am, and pmt mixes. i probably played them all, but the original pitched down is where it’s at

            Hursty totally forgot about this track and it’s completely stuck in my head now. I need a replacement!

              I was just cleaning up the music downloads on my iPhone and gave Tom Mangan - Chutney (Size 9 Reinterpretation) a listen. Tears the roof off.

              alistair Good call for the original. The Gardner mix is a monster as well.

              Fuck Max Graham, who threw a hissy fit when I told him he was a bit trancey in an interview.

                  LOL. Full deets please, Rhouses

                      Old-Dutch haha. It was all over email, not a face to face. Added a question about how he was a prog legend but was now playing heavy trance sets, and if that was a bit of a bandwagon jump, alluding it might have been more lucrative for him. Got really snide over email and refused to answer the rest of the questions.

                        Old-Dutch I was a prick tbf. Seems quite petty looking back on it.

                          When was Max Graham playing heavy trance, Rhouses?

                            LT42 Never really listened to much of his stuff if I’m being honest. Beside that one legendary Transport mixed CD and a couple of his singles.

                            He came down to India, around 2009-2010 (?), and it was full blown trance.

                              Bit rich you calling anyone else out for their heaviness, Rhouse.

                              alistair Stoppage time transports me straight back to the heaven dancefloor. Still a great track

                                bosstrabs Still stand by this selection. The epitome of peak time prog. Unbelievable on a big system.

                                  Hate to be a pedant Hugo but wouldn’t that be more gnarly than chunky?

                                    I’m trying to work out if hugo means that’s the good shit or the bad shit.

                                      Good shit / that’s the shit right there / so good I nearly shit my leg off.

                                      But you didn’t say that.

                                      Good turd, that’s the turd right there, so good I nearly turd’d my leg… nah 😞

                                          Thanks to @jonattonyeah for such a great question. For me, the answer this question is the song Emerald by Bedrock. It has such evocative melodies and hypnotic rhythms. I like to listen to this song while I think about my mother and father, and the experiences of my childhood. This is a pretty great way to spend your time don’t you agree?
