[1] A pseudonym of electronic music producer Paul Brogden, who has performed remixes for artists such as Sasha and Slacker as well as releasing many singles of his own on Platipus Records including the singles "Waah!" and "The Essence", both of which were featured on his album Essence.
Brogden has two obsessions: music and sound. At age 6 he surprised his parents when he sat down at an old piano and started picking out tunes he'd heard on the radio having never played before (they immediately sent him to piano lessons). In his early teens he became fascinated with sound recording and was frequently seen dismembering old reel to reel tape recorders to work out their inner mysteries.
Brogden decided the BBC would be the ideal place to combine his love of music and sound. He joined as a maintenance engineer and scaled his way to a position where he was recording bands live (including 5 years at Glastonbury Main Stage). Heaven surely...
... Well, not quite. Brogden's desire to write his own music was growing stronger. His passion turned towards the dance scene. As far back as 1978, he was listening to Kraftwerk - 'The Man Machine'. It seemed to him that in this genre there were very few restricting rules and Brogden started his own label 'Seismic' in 1993 as a means to release his music. The label has no set rules but explores the more melodic and funky side of trance. "As far as I'm concerned, if a track gives me goose bumps or has a floor moving groove then it's passed the Seismic test. Originality is also very important, what's the point in copying a successful tune just to try and make money - I don't think any truly great records are made that way and it certainly doesn't advance the scene. There's way too much snobbery now on the dance scene where each style is strictly defined - good music is good music and should be judged on it's merits alone", says Paul.
Musically, Brogden has built himself a strong following with his solo work as Pob, with such classics as "The Essence", "Strata" and "Boiler / Beast". He collaborated with DJ Taylor from L.A. on a track called "Baba" (on Distinctive Records and included on the Renaissance compilation mixed by Anthony Pappa) More recently, he worked with DJ Patrick Reid on the single 'Bluebottle / Fly'. This found favour with both Sasha and John Digweed - Sasha using the track 'Fly' on his Global Underground in Ibiza compilation and John Digweed choosing 'Bluebottle' to play in the dance culture movie 'Groove'. His most recent work 'Waah!' was snapped up by Sasha and Digweed for their 'Communicate' album before the single was even pressed!
Brogden is no stranger to remixing. Highlights include the Raze anthem "Break For Love", Sasha's "Magic", Slacker's "Scared" and Bedrock's 'Heaven Scent'. He also works with Claudio Giussani as 'Granny' (check out the Granny remix of Anomalyβs classic "Calling Your Name") and with Simon Berry as Clanger (the team responsible for the quirky "Seadog").
Brogden released his dΓ©but solo album as Pob in 2001. βEssenceβ is a work which serves to highlight his distinctive touch of genius, alongside slick collaborations with Patrick Reid, Art Of Trance and Taylor. First single from the album was the euphoric βLunaβ, a collaboration with DJ Boyd Westerman, and a track which served to highlight Paulβs open-minded approach to new sounds. While the typically slick production was Pob through and through, βLunaβ also opened the door to some new, exciting elements, not least Boydβs gorgeous, ethereal vocal. Almost predictably, Sasha and Digweed loved it, with Diggers in particular making it a staple tune at Bedrock.

This is staggeringly good. Incredible to think this was made ~22 years ago. Still sounds like it's from the future today! Humate is / was a genius.
R Jonzun
@billy M kirkwood I friggin' love Humate.
billy M kirkwood
@behindtheeye thanks for clearing that up dude, I searched some more stuff from him and found a track I'd long lost, I've found 4 from other artists including sabers of paradise painkiller- slack, that I used to have many years ago!! My collection is growing again π
behindtheeye
@billy M kirkwood sorry, no I mean he seemed to just disappear from the music industry a while ago.
billy M kirkwood
Behindtheeye do uou mean he has passed away now? Agreed tho a musical genius π π
Tim Jung
Agreed! Very futuristic and advanced production! I've noticed that most of the best progressive house and trance came from this era of the mid to late 90's. I suspect the less automated nature of music production software and hardware in those days lend itself towards more creative music. Nowadays, it's so easy to be cookie cutter.
TheREALTitanPlayz
Honestly said this has to be played at my 80th birthday if I make it that long and it will still sound futuristic π

Seems most of us heard this first as the opening track on Danny Howell's Tech Trace CD.The opening sound are almost painful in a good way though.Its very unique sounding tune that makes it an essential for your collection.
