Progressive sound...life style ?

[ian]

i love progressive, but wtf? rank....come on....can't u people enjoy shooting the shit with friends at a bar and telling jokes and stuff without having withdrawals to listening to progressive? now most of which sounds like fucking slow trance.....get a grip guys....

Ditto! I love prog too - but not being able to enjoy a night out because prog isn't playing is just plain sad! What ever happened to enjoying a good night out socialising with mates - you can enjoy that whatever music is being played, just as long as it doesn't drown out the conversation.

Prog is a breath of fresh air....

I love all music! However only Progressive gives me goose bumps when listening. My friends and co-workers think I'm nuts.

When I retire all I am going to do is spin my old vinyl and CDs and say to people "remember this tune!"

Re: Progressive sound...life style ?

Is there much else that compares to the sound?We actually hear by feeling vibrations and the progressive sound feels best to me.Theres nothing like an intellectual head massage.mmmm progressive....

....When I roll up to a stoplight, I'll sometimes turn my system up until other cars shake just so they know how much their music sucks (I think most people usually don't understand what I'm trying to say, though)

HEEEELL YEAH! I love it, I do the same thing. Cause you know that theyve never heard anything like what your playing. Ive only had like 2 people yell out their window to ask what im listening to and where to get it(2 thats sad). But hey, people are afraid of everything these days lol. Nobody even wants to look at you when your at a stoplight.

As for prog & my life...It used to be all I was able to listen to. I used to be closed minded about my music. (not sayin anyone here is) And I would not give any other genre a chance. And then I thought about it, and came to conclusion that im no better than my friends who talk shit to me about my music. So I would hear some stuff i liked from my friends, then go d/l the album, and found out its not so bad..after all, it's all music. The main reason we are all here baby. LOVE lol, oh and PLUR!!!

Most people come from other genres (EG trance etc), and when they were into them, said the same as most of you above....that it was better then anything else.

I will say what ever style of music I like, it is my life. I'll admit I used to like trance, before that rock etc....each moment was the most influencing thing of my life at the time. And I can't say I'll sit in prog for ever either. Hell I may end up liking batty house or something?

The word 'better' EG My music is 'better' then your, or theirs, is a very interesting choise of words. You can't push politics on someone, you can't push religion on someone and you can't push music on someone either.

Better in your mind probably equals shit in their mind (especially if they like RnB).

Live and let be (especially turning your car stereos @ lights -- Only making you look stupid).

Hope the above hasn't been a waste of time.

I know that feeling. The missus doesn?t share my taste, i?m sure she gets pissed off when i expain in great detail why the DJ was focking shit and that is not how to mix to two records. I,e slamming it over from one R&B to the next.

I do have a life however, and i couldn?t say that prog ranked highly in my life. Good music is important, but life is more than prog.

Re: Progressive sound...life style ?

agreed with all these posts. Progressive is the closest to defining who I am and/or want to be. Pounding, but laid back. Party, but chilled. Its just the ultimate in smooth. Progressive is everyone having a good time all the time. As long as progressive is around I'm confident that everything is ok.

Re: Progressive sound...life style ?

I'm 28 now and I've been listening to it since I was 14... Can't get enough of it. Can't stop buying vinyls, can't stop downloading sets... I CAN'T GET ENOUGH PROG!

People at work think I'm crazy listening "repetitive music"... You know what I have to tell, them... You don't like it, go back to your f--ken MTV endorsed bling bling sh-t!

Re: Progressive sound...life style ?

Yikes! There's a lot of my cock is bigger than your cock going on in this thread!

In a club, I love it... just the right groove for me.
starting to get a little board of it listening at home sometimes tho. nice in small doses.

but i love all music anyway... not just one type.

Re: Progressive sound...life style ?

Nice to see so many that love progressive.

I too am a slave to progressive house music, my life would not be the same without it.

As far as a rank, it hovers somewhere inbetween 3 and 5, depending on the quality of music that's out at the current time.

Like a lot of the other posts, I literally refuse to go out anymore unless I get to hear progressive house, trance, breaks, or any form of progressive, as long as it's smooth, intelligent, and kickin'. I almost wince at the thought of going out to a bar/club anymore if I know that I'm going to be forced to listen to radio drivel.

I'm not kocking other forms of music, I have varying tastes, but as far as the "..best.." music in my opinion, progressive takes the cake. It just has so much to offer as far as melodies, beats, and lets be honest, it's just fun to listen to!!

As long as they're are good progressive producers and dj's, I will always be a fan. I hope I'm chuggin' to the beat till I'm old and wrinkled.

Re: Progressive sound...life style ?

I'm consistently late for class because I just HAVE to load up my iPod with a set I just downloaded. I'm constantly telling my girlfriend to wait a second while I burn a new disc to take in the car while we go to dinner. I just ordered my Proton Radio t-shirt a week or so ago. Damn, just typing this is taking time away from looking for new sets!

Well I'm married to it.. gonna get a ring for the ring finger to signify it and to replace the ring I already have on that finger.
