Back in 2000 I was pretty tight with Danny Tenaglia. I used to ask him all types of stupid questions. You would be surprised at what is progressive house and what is not. DJ Corbett and I chat on aim twice a month and I ask him all the time what specific records he spins is what specific genre. I'm not saying you dont know what you're talking about, I'm just saying I do.
Check out http://www.djcorbett.com/music/Corbe...rHallPart1.ram The entire mix is mainly progressive house with some tribaly progressive stuff. This pretty much NYC style house in a nut shell.

um...i spin progressive house/breaks...LOL...i went through a shitload of samples before I arrived on that...nyc has a different sound than most places...and i know it sounds wierd, but every city I dj in has a different idea of what each genre is...like when I spin LA, people classify some of my music as nu skool breaks, but here in atlanta they call it funky progressive...
progressive is such a generic label anyway...there are so many things that can be progressive and trance at the same time...same with tribal and progressive
i live 2 miles from satellite here in atlanta, and they are HORRIBLE at labeling (which is why I played those tracks and found ones that matched the genre)....
actually, they are the WORST at labelling in the world..I have been to over 150 record shops across the country and they top the cake...you can find trance labeled house, and breaks labeled trance
but here in atlanta, those samples I pasted above match the genre to a tee...
