Yeah, yeah. “Watch the trance tutorials,” etc.
Seriously, though, I consider this guy to be one of (if not, THE) best in the business. His production quality is incredible, his usage of theory is advanced but not experimental, and the over all atmosphere and energy of his tracks teeter on aural-induced euphoric dimensia.
Jock-hanging aside, I know that many producers in this forum and on this website have a desire to produce main-room progressive house without all the Swedish House Mafia in-your-face-ed-ness.

Digitalism - Circles (Eric Prydz Remix)
The music really speaks for itself.
There is a certain quality to this track which I can’t put my finger on, but I know Phil, Bryan, Graham, and the lot could probably decipher it.
With summer fast-approaching (or already in full swing), I know that my own desire to not only hear, but produce hands-up prog house has increased; I know I’m not alone in this sentiment.
