[Kiambu, Kenya]
WHY DO I LOVE Dark Progressive House so much? Well, it just gets you pumped up to the point that you have to dance. In addition, world class DJs like Victor Calderone and DJ Vibe are masters of this genre. I was doing a little YouTubing today, and decided to see what I’d find if I did a search on said genre. Lo and behold, I saw lots of video results…so I had to peek a few of them. Can you feel the pulsating progressive sounds in this video at the Shelborne Pool Party which is part of the 2008 Winter Music Conference festivities held in Miami, Florida? The fun really begins at the 20 second mark when the DJ literally changes gears — and revs up the BPMs (beats per minutes). Wicked!!!!
I just wished I was there to dance my behind off. I sooo miss that “dark proggy sound.” Let’s just say that you have to be “part of the scene” to appreciate these beats that DJ Vibe and Calderone are unleashing at the moment. By the way, when I came to Kenya, I brought my only “paid for” Resonate CD by Victor Calderone. Suffice to say, it magically disappeared out of my possession in less than a year. So much for sharing my passion for House music.

If you slide the timer to the 2 minute 18 second marker or before that, you hear how the DJ slows down the tempo — just for a brief moment. But then, when it gets to the 2:25 second marker, out of no where, he drops a serious bassline and the tempo goes through the roof. This is what gets everyone pumped up. I don’t know if I can explain it better. You just have to “feel” the vibe and the music — and understand why music by DJs (like DJ Vibe & Victor Calderone) makes people feel so good and just wanna dance.
