New Orleans-based recording artist and filmmaker Trap DeVille has been engineering a new kind of staggering audio-visual experience in which, once it hits your ears and eyes, the impeccably crafted melodies accompanied by the well-choreographed scenes can’t help but transport you to blissful places where your soul rests within the touchstone of pure joy. Trap DeVille is anything but ordinary, and it is that uniqueness that has kept him relevant all these years he has been in the game with an ever-expanding legion of fans that follow his every step with great adulation- if you are into hypnotic sounds and that deep sensory visual experience; welcome aboard for your favorite session!
Trap DeVille’s music transcends genre definitions intriguingly, and for a man who effortlessly exposes his versatility as he cobbles together an early morning brunch, you will also be fascinated by his vocal ability; Trap DeVille has those kinds of vocals that feel like they gently brush your eardrums and expose your soul. His way of delivery is one of a kind—he doesn’t even strain for effort and still manages to come out just perfect.
For the lovers of the classic 70s, 80s, and early 90s, there is quite a lot to love about the quality and design of Trap DeVille’s sound. He has, in his own ingenious way, been able to replicate that ‘golden age’ era and still managed to add to it a futuristic element that makes his sound bridge the gap between the old school and the new school. So, worry not, this is a sound that fits all generations!
As we speak, Trap DeVille is putting in the time and effort for his much-anticipated Visual Album “Sacred Tragedy.” He has been releasing short episodes every other Friday, and so far 3 episodes are out, and I am just here impatiently waiting for the 4th one; the last one was kind of a cliffhanger, and now I’m just in suspense and anxious, which means I cannot miss the next one!
Tell you what, for a fact or two; “Sacred Tragedy” is going to change the dynamics of visual artistry; this is the ultimate distillation of impeccable visual artistry! Coming to think of it, the title itself feels hallowed, so I guess a listener should just be prepared to enter a sanctified world once you push the play button as you indulge deep into the imperceptible musical world of one innovator, Trap DeVille!
We may sit here and debate on so many things, but one thing we have to agree on is that a blend of nostalgic, somewhat modern sounding, and hypnotic with a complementary high-end visual experience is not what you get from your typical celebrities—this is a VIP treatment equivalent to watching a high-ranking blockbuster film in the front row seat of a cinema. A feeling that cannot be described with enough words but which only can be felt; this is the case with Trap DeVille’s musicality.
The episodes for “Sacred Tragedy” are eye-catching and intriguing and follow a well-thought-out and well-written storyline that is bound to catch your interest from the beginning, and before you know it, you will have dedicated your entire existence to waiting for other episodes to drop.
The accompanying soundtracks are ear worming; not that I expected otherwise, but it wouldn’t hurt to say it out loud. In “Sacred Tragedy” we have a real masterpiece here that will take time to match, if it is indeed possible to match!
Before the 4th episode drops this coming Friday, it would only be right if you get acquainted with the other three; follow the attached link and start off on what will become an unforgettable visual journey experience!
