Ok guys, I wasn´t sure about posting this here, and it is kinda cheesy, but I need you people´s expertise on this.

I´ve posted a few sets in the P&R section for quite some time and those of you that have heard them know that I usually play a quite dark and techy/proggy sound. But now I want to do something different just for my g/f, without turning it into a cheese fest.

So I´d love it if you guys could name me a few progressive-leaning tracks with vocals on them. I´m talking about stuff like :

Jasefos feat. Claire Sky - Do What U Want (Infusion Remix) Reflekt feat. Delline Bass - Need To Feel Loved Creamer & K - Wish You Were Here Powerplant - With Or Without You

It doesn´t matter if it´s new or old, I´d just like to hear about stuff that has vocals, is proggy and emotional, without being tacky or cheesy.

Yeah, I know that a DJ should do his homework, but I don´t usually play this style and I´d like to be able to do this in a couple of weeks, so help a brotha out! :oops:

Cheers and thanx 8)

two of my favs atm are from Ben Watt - Guinea Pig (Vocal Variation Mix feat Julia Biel) and Jimmy Van M - My Eyes feat Steve T (2am JVM and Marc Mitchell Mix). You can mix them back to back and it sounds pretty good if you do it right.

I can't believe I didn't think of this one! One of my big time favorites!

[quote=ace_dl;699364] Alcatraz - Give Me Luv [/quote]

:shock::shock::shock: Seems you did some serious digging to come up with this one dude! A blast from the past!

And seeing Moloko in your list, I can't help but be reminded of:

[B]Moloko - Forever More (Francois K Remix)[/B]

Re: Help wanted - Progressive trax with vocals

[quote=herogee;699281] Nicola Gala - Swing 2 Harmony [/quote]

a Sasha Space Terrace track :RockOn:

I´ve already gotten most of these by now, still need to work on those Bjork tracks.

Good call on that François K remix. :D

Agreed, cheesy or not, love these tracks

Re: Help wanted - Progressive trax with vocals

[quote=simonr;699447]a Sasha Space Terrace track :RockOn:[/quote]

Indeed! The first time I heard the track was when Sasha dropped it, not in Space, but in Athens during a Digweed & Sasha night. I swear when I heard that track for the first time I was in love with the whole room! And I wasn't even drunk or high :lol:

[quote=Kinetic;699450]Good call on that François K remix. :D[/quote]

Glad you like it! It's another personal favorite. First listened to it on John's show, from April 11 2003:

[QUOTE]01. Dils - Miser [CDR] 02. Kevin Freeman - Music is My Life [Low Pressings] 03. Moloko - Forever More (Francois K & Eric Kupper Remix) 04. Joshua Ryan - Buildings In Between (Luke Fair mix) 05. ADD - Use Only The Drugs [Loaded] 06. Peter Gun - The Chase [Millennium] 07. P Diddy v Deep Dish - Lets Get Ill [White Label][/QUOTE]

An excellent mix from start to finish. I would also suggest the 'Buildings In Between' track that is right after Moloko, but there's no vocals on it ...

Re: Help wanted - Progressive trax with vocals

[quote=DancingQueen;699468]Agreed, cheesy or not, love these tracks[/quote]

TBH I didn´t know that Gianluca Motta track, wow that can bring a bricklayer to tears.:shock:

Great stuff

Re: Help wanted - Progressive trax with vocals

There's a ton of really good DM remixes by James Zabiela, Danny Tenaglia, Josh Wink, Deep Dish and more. Tons of great vocal track/remixes.

Re: Help wanted - Progressive trax with vocals

Yep, both for them and for Dave Gahan solo tracks.

Re: Help wanted - Progressive trax with vocals

Sure will!

Thanks to what people have recomended here, I´ve already got a whole bunch of stuff and I´m still looking for more, but I guess I´ll be done in a couple of weeks.

It´s gonna be quite different from what I usually play so it´s kind of a challenge for me too.

Sweet, how could I forget Rapture, every girl likes that one.

Speaking of Junkie XL, there´s also Beauty Never Fades, but I´m kind of sick of that one.

Re: Help wanted - Progressive trax with vocals

Dousk - Pa Dida

this >> Astrid Suryanto - Distant Bar (16 bit or Gutterstylez mixes) she has an amazing voice!

Re: Help wanted - Progressive trax with vocals

Infusion - Synesthesia was always one of my faves. What about PQM - The Flying Song?

And come on, no one suggested Skydive?! Lustral?! Silence?!?!?!?

Re: Help wanted - Progressive trax with vocals

OMG ... Totally forgot ...

PQM - You are sleeping :shock:

Fucking amazing. That and Science Dept. 'Breathe' and Freefall 'Skydive' would be my top 3. Not exactly new though

Re: Help wanted - Progressive trax with vocals

Well, one thing´s for sure, I have my work cut out for the track selection!

Turns out I know most of these, but it´s been great remembering them, most of them are real classics. Some people like their prog vocal-less, and sometimes vocals can ruin a track, but I think all of these are great examples that it´s not always like that.

Oh and it doesn´t really matter if they´re new or not, this set is for someone who doesn´t listen to prog-house, so no hold-ups on that.

Re: Help wanted - Progressive trax with vocals

not really word vocals.. but how about chilling moments!

Re: Help wanted - Progressive trax with vocals

Sarah McLachlan - Fallen (Satoshi Tomiie interpretation) is a good one too

Evanescence - Bring Me To Life (Vsag & Andrew K remix)

Re: Help wanted - Progressive trax with vocals

[quote=Kinetic;699686]Some people like their prog vocal-less, and sometimes vocals can ruin a track, but I think all of these are great examples that it´s not always like that.[/quote]

Vocals are tricky on prog tunes, and depending on when you got into prog, a lot of vocals some of us dig will sound cheesy to say people who got into prog when it was dark. If you went earlier back, tracks like Ultraviolet - Kites or even Morgan King's I'm free or Chakra - I am, Blue Amazon - When the rain falls or Perfecto - Not over yet will sound downright cheesy when held up to the deep prog or music today.

How about something more downbeat like Secondhand Satellites - Beautiful Strange? There's also Trentemoller - Moan?

Male vocals I'd suggest BPT - Moody, Morel - True (The Faggot Is You), 16B feat, Morel - Escape (Driving to Heaven) and anything with Quivver/Stoneproof on vocals. Not a lot of male vocals belong on prog tracks (Creamer n K's I Love You was uber cheese), but those ones do.

Oh just came across on youtube. Lexicon Avenue - From Dusk Till Dawn. Top notch production on that one even though the vocal is verging on cheese.

Re: Help wanted - Progressive trax with vocals

yeah! I've been playing driving to heaven a bit lately.. great track

medway - release (lexicon ave) and [B]Li'sha - That's Why I'm Here (Lexicon Avenue Dubs)[/B]

Re: Help wanted - Progressive trax with vocals

Good call on That's Why I'm Here, forgot about that.

Re: Help wanted - Progressive trax with vocals

Satoshi Tomiie - Love In Traffic (John Creamer & Stephane K Remix) Luzon - The Baguio Track (this count as vocal?) Sasha - Ohmna (my fav track of all time) Banco de Gaia - Obsidian(the light rmx) (one of my favs tracks also) Sasha - In a State

Re: Help wanted - Progressive trax with vocals

The Baguio Track!!!!! :RockOn:

Re: Help wanted - Progressive trax with vocals

when it came out, it was the most difficult to me to mix, i think yet is very tricky track to mix....hehe

Re: Help wanted - Progressive trax with vocals

deffo love in traffic!

also Creamer and K remix of the Doors, Forget the World
