Sort of orchestral trap I guess? I don't know

unique vibe! i can hear a little trap aggression and influence but overall it feels more cinematic and moody / cloud-rappy, all good stuff

really enjoyed this

yeah I kinda agree. I can never get that type of 'mean' trap sound, it's just not how I see music :-)

Maybe the cadence of the beat, and some of those fills are trap-inspired, but the overall melodic arrangement is miles ahead of the usual trap stuff. I also can't relate to that "drugs money drop the bass bitches" sound that, for a lack of a better expression, seems to be most of the "mainstream trap".

Beats like these show that the genre and the groove could be beyond limits

this for sure! to make genrefied trap it has to be intentionally simplified

I agree. There's some cool stuff here and there, or at least i stumble into some stuff that's really cinematic, or with a cool melody, but generally speaking I believe we're at a point where Trap has become an overly saturated niche which makes it sound more like a parody.
