I am not really into the Trap genre however there are certain artists like Bryson Tiller who have some soulful progressions in the music. I played over the Bryson Tiller track “Don’t” with my own synth type chords. It is rather a simple progression, just three chords looping over as below.
Emin7th, Gb7 and Bmin. See below for the video. Self explanatory.
I will be expanding my set of chords for the Trap genre as they can fit in, as long as the melodies fit in the key. The only thing that tends to offset this in this genre are the diving sub-bass lines. It seems to confuse the key if used incorrectly.
Thanks for breaking down the chords. Would like to see more videos / tutorials for this style of music.
You should be able to use any Soulful Chord progression for this type of music. However you need to take note of those sub bass-lines. They tend not to be in the key of the song and can offset the whole sound if use incorrectly.
Can you give us the MIDI file for the chords?
Love the chord progression. Goes well with the beat there.
Thanks
