something i dont understand....

[TPO]

why the hell people call progressive (e.g. sasha)... TRANCE? it sounds so gay... and i find it closer to house than trance...

opinions?

 

[marcinm]

cause what sasha does play is trance, but just a stronger beat... but still it's for sure more trance than techno or house. It has buildup (but usually more subtle) and those "no bass" moments... for sure the stuff that sasha plays is trance, imo

and progressive does not sound gay!!!!

 

[^NuERA^]

its called progressive trance...thus still trance, bt just not your usual epic or hard trance....

 

[ArekTripleSL]

calling it house would sound more "gay"

 

[AdRiaN]

I prefer to call it, "PRANCE" or "TROG".

lol.

thats just cause no one can program a new and original synth line in trance these days. but certain samples are changing that around now.
I'm starting to get sick of prog... its not progressing at all. it did for a while, now its the same 'sound'.
I think prog just put more work into baselines and percusion that after enough play get just as tiring as synths.
I love em both. but also tire of them both the same.
The new tracks them I'm loving are the ones that take the strengths of both styles.
