In the late 2000s and early 2010s, elements of trap music—which was originally derived from southern hip hop—filtered into electronic music and created a distinct style of electronic dance music (EDM). A variety of artists spurred trap's move into pop and EDM.
In 2012, a style of electronic dance music (EDM) incorporated elements of trap music, and began gaining popularity. Most of these new subgenres combined snare and hi-hats typical to hip hop music and sub-bass and slow tempos of dubstep, creating "dirty, aggressive beats and dark melodies." Electronic music producers, such as Diplo, TNGHT, Baauer, Keys N Krates, Bro Safari, Luminox, RL Grime, Dimitri Vegas & Like Mike, Hardwell, R3hab, DJ Snake, Don Diablo, Marshmello, Aero Chord, Steve Aoki, GTA, Dillon Francis, Afrojack, Skrillex, Tomsize, Flosstradamus, and Yellow Claw expanded the popularity, and brought wider attention to the derivative forms of trap.
