FabiParas perhaps I’m spoiled, but my threshold for what constitutes a wrecking ball has moved in quite a different direction from that of most of the board over the years.

FabiParas

Fair enough. What’re your current criteria for wrecking ball status?

hugopal

FabiParas to use a few fairly recent examples, along the lines of:

Hursty

The ball breakers in one of the Berghain side rooms no doubt.

Does one stomp or air-punch for that Perc ditty, or both at the same time?

Not quite Prog though!!

hugopal

Mad_Cyril Not quite Prog though!!

Sure, but my point is that I don’t think what generally passes for prog nowadays warrants the description “wrecking ball”, or often even “power”.

Another funny thing though, is that Perc also used to post on the old GU board back in the day.

1 - Remove top
2- Pop on ice some nice ice wash denims
3- Pogo whilst giving a nazi salute

Wrecking Ball Peak Time POWER Prog is its full title Hugo.

Smallman1 Wrecking Ball Peak Time POWER Prog is its full title Hugo.

It’s a misleading title in most of the cases it’s used on this forum:

Feather-Duster Warm-up Cuddle Prog would generally be a more apt description.

Hursty

Smallman1 I think ‘House’ is required in the title for Hugo to understand.

The vast majority of people here seem able to comprehend the description in terms of a track which will likely do damage on a dance floor, vs balls to the wall techno.

Your definition is too narrow.

Hugo posting 3 techno/hard house trax as an example of power Prog.

Remember we had the “Post your fave DJ of the year” thread on the old board and Hugo had a fit and posted a list of DJs from Berlin nobody’s ever heard of?

I rest my case, your Honor.

hugopal

LT42 Hugo posting 3 techno/hard house trax as an example of power Prog.

I said I posted them as examples of tracks worthy of having the descriptor “wrecking ball” attached to them.

LT42

hugopal You should’ve just posted a pic of an actual wrecking ball in that case, Hugo

FabiParas

Tidy Trax back-catalogue FTW!

I like how this thread has changed from Covid 19 to Power Prog. It’s a shame that the basis is my mix and the chatter isn’t in that thread? @Millsy is there a way to pull out that chatter and dump it in the other thread?
