Particular style of house I'm trying to find more of. Help needed!

[kooper1980]

how does Nicky Romero sound anything like the tune in the OP??!! It may be (incorrectly) labelled as the same genre on Beatport but they aren't even remotely similar.

[Era 7]

Maybe Tech House?

not even close.

Exactly. Non of that is remotely legit progressive house.

All the above sound like electro house to me. Certainly not prog.

I was talking about how beatport calls them.
Also, aren't the terms interchangeable?

Beatport genres are meaningless. And no, the terms are not interchangeable. Unless you consider rock and death metal to be interchangeable.

One pluck-style synth note that is used as the main bassline, that is repeated in a syncopated rhytm.
It doesn't have to be the same exact sound, Atom for example doesn't sound exactly the same as flashbang

Well excuse my ignorance then..

Still, i find the line between electro and proghouse to be very thin, so i consider electro just "harder progressive"
That's how i see it, at least with modern tracks/artists.
Older progressive is much more defined as a genre

More electro with elements of trance, also ripping off the lead from Aerodynamic a little.
