OK, no problem. Never been very good at telling what genre something belongs to, so you're probably right. Suppose it's because I don't care all that much about genres as long as I like the song. But I do respect that this community is genre bound for a reason, so I will lurk some moar before posting again to get a feel for what's what.
The term "progressive" is a little weird in this context, based on the progressive rock from the sixties. For me, it means music that doesn't use the standard song structures, has complex melodies or rhythm, and tends to have longer songs. But it's a hard to define genre!
Yeah, progressive rock was pretty much was where I came from on that. But a day when you learn something new is never wasted.
Yeah i agree its hard to define, which is why i dont wanna remove or enforce what people post here. I dont really wanna be a moderator, just wanted to make the community for us to share some music
Sounds fine for now!
