If you like Yes and early Genesis, JM Jarre.....

heres something that you might well like

Crime in Choir-The Hoop

not really my cuppa char, but I know theres a lot of you that like the neo proggy thing. This is math rock in a vaguely Dillingeresque stylee, but far less hard so your reminded of Jean Michelle Jarres Oxygene, early Yes instrumental pieces and Peter Gabriel era Genesis without the vocals, but with a twist. There is nothing heavy going on here, this is light moog synth music, set to Bill Bruford style drumming. High calibre of musicianship and the recordings pretty good to boot so its audiophile candy.

Karkus30 - Had a listen to a few tracks and I can see what you mean as I like JMJ PG Genesis et al - went off the idea of a blind buy when I noticed the CD is only 33 minutes long - I suppose if I saw it going cheap I might be tempted ... Paul

Gawd, seemed a lot longer than that to me , but imo its worth buying if you like that sort of stuff, it really is quality from that stand point and the 33 mins are all killer no filler (well in proggy terms that is, as its all filler to me I do admire the druming though very classy).

I think you are in denial , we all know you've been there before and you don't want to go there again but there is no harm in worshiping at the alter of prog once in a while (as long as nobody hears you).

Just let it all out, we are here to help you.
