Electronic trap is a high-energy, bass-driven genre that fuses the sonic intensity of electronic dance music (EDM) with the rhythmic and melodic sensibilities of hip-hop and trap. Characterized by heavy, syncopated beats, often between 100-110 BPM, and prominent use of synthesized leads, distorted 808 basslines, and atmospheric sound design, electronic trap creates a dark, edgy, and immersive sonic landscape. Emerging in the early 2010s, the genre gained popularity through festival circuits and online platforms, particularly among younger audiences. Cultural significance lies in its ability to bridge the gap between EDM and hip-hop, reflecting the genre-bending, experimental spirit of contemporary electronic music. Notable for its fusion of styles, electronic trap draws from dubstep, drum and bass, and future bass, while maintaining a distinct, aggressive edge that sets it apart from more polished, commercial EDM styles.
