This is a mix of progressive breaks music- a niche subgenre that evolved from techno and trance in the late 90s, disappeared for a while, and has now kind of come back. I discovered these tunes starting with the UK artist Framewerk.
The tracks are similar in tempo and melodic construction to progressive house (I played this in the mid 120s), but feature broken beats instead of the house/trance 4/4. Consequently it required a different mixing technique which I very much enjoyed.
