When Billboard Dance asked the duo to rank their all-time favorite trap songs in October of 2016, no one knew at the time that it would become one of the last things they did together. It was they who helped kickstart the trend of remixing songs with audacious trap beats, revamping everything from Lana Del Rey’s “Video Games” to Usher’s “Climax.” And it was they who were there at ground zero of the genre’s live movement, introducing trap to EDM festivals like Ultra Music Festival and Tomorrowland back in 2013. And it’s definitely a fair association, given the fact that the duo helped invent the genre.īack in the early 2010s, it was they who were hard at work pioneering a new “Harlem Shake” adjacent blend of gritty high hats and steep bass drops alongside fellow founding fathers, Major Lazer, RL Grime, DJ Snake, DJ Craze and more.
