Particular style of house I’m trying to find more of. Help needed!
I’ve always been very particular about what house music I listen to. Recently I went to a local club in the area and I saw Erick Morillo play. I wasn’t a fan of his mixing by any means and it was honestly boring as hell being there, but when he had a good bit of energy going he had tracks that sounded like this:
It’s almost like a progressive chugging sound. I noticed a lot of the opening DJ’s had this sound too. Atom by Nari and Malani also has this sound. Does anyone know if this has a name or if I can use a search term to find more songs like this? It has a really good club feel to it. Thanks!
if it sounds progressive its likely to be progressive house. Morillo is a house DJ and his tastes recently have been more along the progressive lines. Nari & Milani are definitely progressive house.
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.
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
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
not even close.
