Ghost Train - Episode #9


After a very long time away from DJing and keeping the podcast running I finally return with this mix, that will hopefully kickstart it and see continuous mixes running each month. I have (since my last mix in August 2012) really gotten into Trap music, a mixture between Hip-Hop and Electro with a dash of that famous Dutch sound. Built on the foundations of an 808 kit, the drop of a Trap beat is oh so satisfying, with hard hitting bass drums, high pitched synth leads, and choppy vocals that get you hooked to the genre instantly.

I have noticed it spring into a lot of high profile DJs, with huge support from the likes of Diplo. Baauers  recent number 1 hit, Harlem Shake, has only helped matters escalate and will truly see 2013, the year of Trap.
