It seems more and more producers are experimenting with trap and hardstyle fusions. For me, trap is rarely substantive enough to be stand alone music, and is more fitting when assisting other styles when done appropriately — as displayed in Junkie Kid's very animated, genre-defying track, “Sick Games.”
This track succeeds where others fail with it's seamless transition between the two seemingly opposing genres. To bridge the two contrasting styles, Junkie Kid doesn't rely on breaks, builds, or drops, rather the transition comes from a common denominator: by slowly bringing a background Synth melody in the trap beat to the front, and then introduce the pulsating hardstyle kick to match it. Aside from amazing composition, the track features Amelye's outstandingly quaint, innocent vocals.
