Review: Karton - For All Seasons

For All Seasons

Let it be known: I want to be Karton when I grow up. Okay, okay - I've been listening to electronic music for well over a decade... [insert off-color age remark here. good. got that out of your system?] What I mean is that while I have immersed myself in EDM for quite some time, my musical production skills are still in their infancy. And when they have matured to a point that they are ready to leave the nest and become rebellious teenagers, I want them to create the kind of audacious, moving, crank-it-to-11 type music that Karton effuses into our musical microcosm.

Happy New Year!

Well as promised episode 3 has been pushed out (kicking and screaming) and we hope to deliver much more content in 2011... 2010 was rough personally but I was no less than amazed by some of the music that crossed my path. I hope 2011 draws in more listeners and recognition for our beautiful genre.

In January I will be working on updating the site with more features, so bear with me if certain aspects appear broken. I am also excited to start working on some music production of my own and sharing it with the community (please, be gentle :-P).

I hope everyone has had a great holiday and is off to a productive start!

Ok. I admit. I've been slacking. Hardcore. It's been over a year since the last podcast and the blog has been stagnant. But all that is about to change. Making music, podcasting, and blogging are going to be my full time job over the next few months (unemployment has its privileges!) so be prepared for an onslaught of progressive breaks love!

Thanks for hanging in there and not unsubscribing from the podcast - your patience will be rewarded, I promise.

Old Skool Sunday : Way Out West - The Gift

For All Seasons

If you were a club kid in Florida in the mid to late to nineties you undoubtedly went to (or at least heard of) the Club at Firestone. If not, it was the epicenter of the Florida rave scene, with a steady stream of top-notch DJs passing through its hallowed halls... leaving throngs of unsuspecting party people awestruck in their wake.

Track Review: Hybrid - Break My Soul

Break My Soul

It's only fitting that the first track review for the new progressivebreaks.net is one from Hybrid. PBN might not exist if it weren't for the boys from Swansea. It was some ten years ago when I first heard "If I Survive" playing over the speakers of the little club in my hometown. It stopped me in my tracks then and even today remains one of my favorite songs of all time. Over the years Hybrid has provided many a spine-tingling moment: whether from seeing them perform live, or randomly happening across one of their old remixes. Indeed the PBN studio is adorned with autographed Hybrid posters. What I'm getting at is that to love progressive breaks is to love Hybrid, and I love me some mother effing Hybrid.
