On this week's episode of Super Progressive, we are joined by legendary Australian producer Danny Bonnici. I particularly enjoyed this conversation as I was able to ask Danny about the origins of one of my favorite sound in all of underground music, the progressive breaks sound coming out of Melbourne. Additionally, we chat about his inclusion in Balance Croatia Festival, what makes Phil K such an important artist, what it was like to have international DJs like Sasha and John Digweed spread the Melbourne progressive breaks sound around the world, and the story behind his classic track 'Ride' with Luke Chable.
This conversation was a real privilege to have and I hope you all enjoy!
