PP&F- M.O.R.P.H. into Machinery and ...

“It is always like this- that the dance magazines leave the trance and proggy stuff left outside little bit and attention focuses mainly on the house, electro, techno, even D&B gets more attention in them, but the fact is, the music which fills the stadiums is only the Armin van Buuren and Tiesto concerts, which is mostly trance and proggy, but anyways, it really shows that press keeps that kind of music mostly down.” – Alex M.O.R.P.H.

Although seemingly inevitable with last week’s positioning at #2 and a steady climb during the last 13 weeks, the #1 position is usually reserved for the official remixes of Billboard Hot 100 tunes or tracks with questionable cross-over capabilities, but not this week.

All three of these song...

Past, Present & Future (PP&F) will serve as an “algorhythm” in which music selection will adhere to- taste making in not just music, but in other emerging trends as well. This new way of thinking will help the community connect the dots in which I will attempt to to drag and utilize other niches, communities and scenes into ours. Fads and trends, although superficial and usually short lasting, are what industries and business models are based on. Trends and fads are flimsy at best when observed at face value, but one must discover their perpetual nature and...
