i personally can't stand trap. i'm not interested in being disappointed by a fantastic buildup leading to random bass noises that sounds more like someone smashed a vinyl record of a true dubstep song (not brostep). anyway, that's my opinion, but currently the top 3 songs on the beatport dubstep charts are trap
why is trap so popular? |

| HAHA! I'll tell you why: the tempo (and the sub, hats, etc., but mainly the beat). Yes, the tempo, the half-time beat. It's why kids like brostep so much: minimal, halftime hip-hop beats with crazy mid synths and sub basslines. But with trap you still have those sub basslines and tempo, but with that comes a more minimal feeling, plus br00tal hats. Some people prefer listening to a hip-hop beat that sounds more electronic with linear sine bass lines, etc., than listening to a hip-hop tune with some funk samples and sub kicks, so it's pretty popular with heads in the UK. |

what i don't understand is, how is THIS #1 on beatport dubstep tracks?
i can't even stand 30 seconds of it.

it's no longer #1 (xilent - boss wave has taken over, finally a decent dubstep song goes up not a crappy trap song), but it was #1 for a few days.
this was #1 for over a month:

It's not that in any other places besides Southern areas like Georgia.
I like it because it makes me want to flip a table. Artificial Bass does that to people. |
