Jody Mayfield Teaches Trap Jazz

SHOWTIME:  7:00pm.  In “trap jazz,” the term “trap” is borrowed from the trap music genre and is used to describe the incorporation of trap-style beats, rhythms, and production techniques into jazz music. Trap music originated in the early 2000s and is characterized by its use of heavy 808 drum patterns, hi-hats, aggressive beats, and often dark and atmospheric soundscapes. This fusion of genres results in a unique blend of traditional jazz elements and contemporary hip-hop influences.
