• Insanely catchy and memorable bassline • Exciting wordplay in the rapping • Unexpected trap-drill switch-up Releasing imprints such as Magic Records and Tribal Trap, South Korean producer 4URA has established his aptitude for creating anthemic and melodic Trap productions. This time, although, 4URA has taken a different route with his sound; his infectiously addictive
• Familiar bassline and vocal loop • Different changes in schema • Glitchy Trap switch, surprising! It was about time for some experimental Phonk record to be featured on this blog, and who if not Tribal Trap coming up with such fresh ideas? The amount of quality on their releases is overwhelming, and this time
• Too many fillers, subjectively • Tough bassline, adventurous breakdown • Fiery drops On this occasion, I am sharing some classic Trap created by the German producer YL with a plethora of minuscule details blending over Electro influences. Inspired by the likes of bigwigs such as Take/Five and Fabian Mazur, YL is incorporating the usual
• Huge similarities with other Moistrus tracks • Sublime vocal performance • THROVN breaks hiatus Moistrus is a Norwegian producer who has already caught my attention in the past with his hypnotic soundscape. His style is conventional trap-inspired hip-hop, with a dash of vibrant sounds that turn everything more magical… including melancholia in its lead.
• Explosive, out-of-the-box drop style • Bouncy bassline • Excellent blend with the existing Phonk staples The two Italian creatives YOLO KULT and Carl Lazy couldn’t make me any less content with their booming “Thunderbolt”! Just like a lightning bolt, the composition blasts and roars with an impressive assortment of basslines and hard-hitting lead. It’s
• Not an habitueè of Hard Dance • Lots of care with the digital theme • Some unexpected old-school Electro House breakdowns I know, I know, I am reviewing a lot of Tribal Trap stuff lately. It’s just that I keep discovering exciting releases, such as “404” by Dirty Blood! Trust me, this one will
• Peculiar rework of Eminem’s classic • Emphasis on the piano sections • Heavier reverb on vocals than usual This one is a weird specimen, but it sounds strangely good. Producers six o five and E.P.O. just dropped this Phonk tune on Tribal Trap with a familiar name… Yes, “mockingbird” is a rework of Eminem’s
• This isn’t your typical Phonk track… • A brilliant fusion of melody and rhythm • Debut on Tribal Trap that sets the bar high When I first heard that Angemi had released a track on Tribal Trap, I was pleasantly surprised. Having made a name for himself on Smash The House and with DV&LM,
• Spooky vocal, well balanced • More melodic bassline than expected • Out-of-the-box idea It has come to my notice that I have been quickly transitioning to Phonk during my chill-out and car-driving sessions, as this hypnotic and looping genre never ceases to fascinate me. Many Tribal Trap releases, a real industrious warehouse of Phonk
• Familiar lyrics quickly played in the first and central segments • Not that innovative • Gangsta motives featured in the Trap drop Two genre veterans are featured on this one today, with an interesting rework of Snoop Dogg and Pharrells’ “Drop It Like It’s Hot” in an underground Trap salsa! The vocalist Blvkstn has
• A mix of everything… from flutes to violin! • Constant variations throughout • Usual trap format with unusual elements Within the immense discography of Tribal Trap, “Next Level” by the Romanian wazecode struck me with its unique drop, although it may resemble a common Trap framework in its initial sequence. For the past four
While preparing an article centered on the football World Cup in Qatar, which begins today, I found a relevant (and nice) tune to keep in the background while writing, as a lucky coincidence! WHAT THE PHONK and 6SIXSIX conspired together to bring phonk to Qatar with their song “World Cup”, released via Tribal Trap. Since
• Repetitious vocal loop • Eerie atmosphere, typical of these releases • Hypnotic aura Not more than a week ago, I mentioned the duo CryJaxx when discussing about Phonk, a new talk of the town in terms of trending genre, and here we go again with a fresh release on Tribal Trap! Together with Sinny,
• Eerie tonality in the breakdown • Frenzy mix of bassline and growls in the drop • Unpredictable final climax In terms of the originality of its title, “Go Hard” doesn’t score as considerably. Yet, this triple-powered collaboration is anything but slow. A showcase between the joint forces of SVRRIC, Nieko, and Zack Merci, this
• Hooky vocal performance • Classic lead with booming 808s • Lovely dark piano building up to the climax The observant and careful readers may already be familiar with Lukasoprom after my review on the Tribal Trap’s Endemic III that came out last year. The Georgian talent composes a kind of infectious Trap that I
• Ten seconds of first drop, aaagh! • Excellent sound design, polished schematics • Wonderful vocal, a passionate performance NOIRE has earned his reputation for versatility with his third appearance on Tribal Trap, and I had the change to appreciate his style. First it happened with a glitch-riddled début “Psychedelic”, and then a classic melodic
• Unusual genre for Tribal Trap standards • Violin, piano, trap samples and basslines: variegate combination • Relaxing experience I must be honest, I wasn’t expecting to hear Slap House on Tribal Trap, even if I’m used to find a lot of surprises in my beloved label’s cataloque… Twice! In fact, last Friday I noticed
Almost a year ago, I happened to talk about “Endemic 2”, a powerful trap compilation from Tribal Trap, and it is a pleasure to work on the third chapter today. I still listen to the top five artists of the preceding edition, and following many of them involved in the project.. so you can understand
Personally, I have become a huge fan of the Tribal Trap imprint and their releases: with an insane amount of creative ideas and interesting names present, I rarely find the time to present my thoughts about them. Sure, the label keeps a tight schedule of 3-4 releases per week, that surprisingly doesn’t correspond to a
A couple of days ago, we were discussing with a producer about the differences between being under a major, being independent and working with a “minor” label. Being a complex topic, we’ll develop it another day: today, we want to speak about minors, a reality that as always fascinated us! “Minor Labels” are, historically, smaller
• Dark, enigmatic atmosphere • Reggaeish-influenced vocal minus the clichés • Pleasantly distorted bassline LBLVNC is a French talent, whose workmanship found me some time ago in the occasion of a remix contest of Skan’s hits “No Glory“. His methodology in constructing basslines are simply fabulous, and during the previous months I preferred his aggressive
