Rap, Trap | PropaneLv – Harlem Shake Remix

Posted by on February 22, 2013

The viral video craze that accompanies Baauer’s “Harlem Shake” has hit the stratosphere in the last week as thousands of YouTube users upload their own chaos filled videos to the trap beat.  To my surprise, not many opportunistic rappers have jumped on it. I guess it was a perfect fit for PropaneLv and the next installment in his cover series – and he had the LTRMN goons on deck to give his video for it the usual Harlem Shake treatment. Download is on his Facebook below.

Trap | DJ Snake – Bird Machine (feat. Alesia) / Together

Posted by on February 22, 2013

Bird machine

Two huge releases in this package from French producer DJ Snake. We already previewed “Bird Machine,” a cool as hell track with Alesia that’s seen playtime from Dillon Francis, Knife Party, Flosstradamus, and Baauer. The defining feature? You guessed it — bird whistles in lieu of more traditional synth leads. This track is quite honestly going to be everywhere in about five minutes so take my advice and jump on it now. Rounding out the package is “Together,” which flirts with hardstyle before delivering a big, bouncy trap drop. The two seemingly disparate styles work surprising well together and bring serious energy. “Bird Machine” and “Together” are both out now (for free!) on Mad Decent’s Jeffree’s imprint — snag the free DL below.

Trap | Stromae – Humain à l’eau (Dj Snake Remix) / DJ Snake & Alesia – Bird Machine [Preview]

And here we have some straight bombs from French producers DJ Snake and Aleisa. The above preview for “Bird Machine” notably made its way into Knife Party’s recent set in the RISE digital music festival on turntable.fm after Mixify’s servers couldn’t handle the heat, and is easily some of the best trap I’ve heard in a long time. If you’re into it and need it now, fear not; it’s set to drop tomorrow as part of a mini EP on Mad Decent’s Jeffree’s imprint. Below, we’ve got some legitimate swag for your ears that for whatever reason is made even swaggier by the fact that it’s all happening in French. Fact: the awesomeness of that drop negates the need to understand what he’s saying, anyway. Free DL; no brainer.

Adolescent thoughts arise as I hear this reverberate through my eardrums once again. ”Suga Suga” is solely responsible for at least a few of my girlfriends back in the day. I was making the girls feel extra special with this track while my friends stayed busy in their pogs and kinis. Suga how you get so flyyy?

DJ Fresh Direct reworks Kendrick Lamar’s hit single “Swimming Pools” into a turnt up monstrosity combining the song with Gents & Jawns’ “Turn Up”. Warning, this bootleg isn’t for the faint of heart. It’s starts off normal enough but then tranforms into a huge Trap banger.

Middy posting trap? Well regardless of your thoughts on whether or not it is a gimmick or not, trap is here to stay and you better get with it. Trap songs that just take a track and add a few samples from run of the mill sample trap run kit in 10 minutes deserve little attention, however those that actually mold the trap instrumentals into the track and work with the sounds of the original track like what Aylen has done move forward the experiment of what is going on with the current direction of trap (I know it is not new). Aylen combines the grungy electro low end from the original with blistering high hats and snares, molding the trapped instrumentals into the framework of the original.
