Ah, 2012. The year (electronic) trap music was born. From Flosstradamus’ ‘Original Don’ flip, to TNGHT’s EP, Baauer’s breakout and UZ’s Trap Shit beginnings. It was a time when trap was infinitely fresh and new. A perfect fusion of rap and electronic elements to get your speakers bumpin’.
2012 is also the year that Party Favor’s career really began to take off. Paying homage to the incredible time comes his aptly titled single ‘2012’. Built around an aggressive vocal loop and war ready horns, Party Favor injects gun clicks, sirens and snapping 808’s for a sound that’ll have you screaming, “real trap shit!” It’s a reminder that clean production and a gritty aesthetic will never go out of style. Turn up to this like Obama’s still President.
