Cheezr 37 Posted February 25, 2014 Share Posted February 25, 2014 I think its because he's not generic. I mean zedd kinda sold out. Madeon hasn't yet. Im not shading zedd(cuz I like him) but DJWS makes more experimental music. Watch when trap starts to gain popularity in the mainstream world, people are gunna be wet over him.

Quark 7,098 Posted February 25, 2014 Share Posted February 25, 2014 This is what I am saying. Trap is very popular specially in the U.S. However, Dark Horse in not really trap. The song is more of a pop/hip hop song. Dark Horse, it's chart position, and sales say hi Trap is really in Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
aaronyoji 2,054 Posted February 25, 2014 Share Posted February 25, 2014 hes a great producer but he has no distinct sound, ARTPOP as a record only proves that. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The song is more of a pop/hip hop song. Actually, the breakdown is very trap influenced, but the rest of the song is annoying and the only reason it's gotten so popular is because of the beat, not her voice or lyrics lol Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quark 7,098 Posted February 25, 2014 Share Posted February 25, 2014 But he does have a distinct sound. His sound is basically electro trap. Is just that when he works with Gaga, he does what Gaga want him to do, not to mention that Gaga also co produces on his songs. Zedd and Madeon also have a more unique sound when they work with Gaga for the same reasons. Excpet that the work that these two make with Gaga, is more similar to what they would normally do for their own music. hes a great producer but he has no distinct sound, ARTPOP as a record only proves that.

Quark 7,098 Posted February 25, 2014 Share Posted February 25, 2014 But that breakdown is not very trap in my opinion. Trap is way more fast spaced and has repetitive snare sounds. However, I do agree with you in that the only reason that the song is popular is the beat.

However, I do agree with you in that the only reason that the song is popular is the beat. It also depends on which artists you listen to but imagine that beat sped up and you'd be good It's a generic trap sound slowed down for the pace of the song and the more urban influences removed to cater towards teenage girls It's sad to see it watered down, but that's the result Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
GagaMyBlood95 9,915 Posted February 25, 2014 Share Posted February 25, 2014 Trap is less commercial than Zedd's music, I guess. Yeah, I agree... He is of course, most famous for his works with Gaga so.. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
