2-4 years ago when that whole deep tribal sound was big in the states it seemed like everyone was rolling their nuts off and deep music was appreciated. Now it seems like its either tech house or housey prog or electro or some other "funky" sound and there is less patcience for deeper headier music. Which is a shame because that is the sound I love and Martin's set was a breath of fresh air.
Well, it seems almost as if the newer techier stuff popular now is even more heady than the dark progressive. I think people, inculding most DJs, are sick of the dark prog sound, and want to move forward. Is electro"moving forward"? I don't know; more like sideways. Anyway, I think the surge of electrohouse right now is attributable to a resistance against the dramatic serious dark progressive sound. Variety is the spice of life.
It won't last forever, this electro sound, but don't expect the days of dark prog to return. The music will be succeeded yet again by something different. Or the scene will just die completely, pushed out of the market by hip hop and indie rock. Who knows?

i am noticing hip hop is stealing the electronic underground sounds everyday, they are starting to use alot of breakbeats,
people love dat shit, but not "techno"
you can move forward within a sound which is what Martin is doing. His set is dark tribal prog but it is MUCH better than the dark tribal prog of 4 years ago.
this is a tracklist from martin's presentation in middawn, buenos aires, so u can take an idea of what's the sound that he is doing
