Lemmiwinks Posted February 21, 2014 Share Posted February 21, 2014 So, as always, I'm always interested in the latest developments of electronic music and I've stumbled on this, well actually I guess you've all heard it on the radio here and there but without knowing it was an actual music style in it's own right, some sort of cross between hip hop and dubstep. Pretty damn commercial but, like in any style, some stuff that isn't bad at all: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NGjFNhbq0Hk https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5wn7Yol3Cpo so what do you guys think?

desysko Posted February 21, 2014 Share Posted February 21, 2014 I honestly can't stand trap music. Ya I do agree that there are some interesting sounds but that's where it ends for me. The music style reminds me of drunkards head banging and moshing. But the 2nd song you posted wasn't that bad. But man I do hate those air horns. Eh, maybe I'm just bias and have a dislike for stuff that gets really mainstream and commercial. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rotwang Posted February 21, 2014 Share Posted February 21, 2014 Sounds more like a dubstep/hardhouse/hardcore crossover than a dubstep/hiphop crossover to me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lemmiwinks Posted February 22, 2014 Author Share Posted February 22, 2014 Sounds more like a dubstep/hardhouse/hardcore crossover than a dubstep/hiphop crossover to me. hmm well that's because I chose tracks that had a bit of electronica elements in them and which I like more than the usual hip hop influenced tunes Here's a longer mix of a "typical" trap set, that way you get a better idea https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2F6d6crjRyU Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
desysko Posted February 22, 2014 Share Posted February 22, 2014 One thing that bothers me is why so many videos of any electronic music usually has a picture of some lady? Is the scene dominated that much by males, that we have to have pictures of females to satisfy ourselves? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rotwang Posted February 22, 2014 Share Posted February 22, 2014 Is the scene dominated that much by males, that we have to have pictures of females to satisfy ourselves? That's hardly unique to electronic music, though is it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
desysko Posted February 23, 2014 Share Posted February 23, 2014 Eh I can't say for sure. While I do listen to a lot of other music like post-rock or jazz, I don't see them posted as much as they do in electronic music. Eh, maybe I'm just not looking hard enough.

Padremac Posted March 11, 2014 Share Posted March 11, 2014 Trap? T-Rap? We had T-Rap band couple of year ago, so it's nothing new Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Veracohr Posted March 12, 2014 Share Posted March 12, 2014 'Trap' music? That's a new one to me. The thread title immediately made me think of this song from the movie "Cannibal The Musical": 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Veracohr Posted March 12, 2014 Share Posted March 12, 2014 So...it sounds like it's pretty much all about remixing? I don't consider it a valid musical genre until someone writes an original song in the style. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dolmot Posted March 13, 2014 Share Posted March 13, 2014 It rhymes with crap. Whenever the genre is discussed, I think of this (1:46 for the impatient): Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
