THE SQUIDFATHER 2

Dream plugg is an airy, ethereal offshoot of the plugg/pluggnb branch of trap that emphasizes soft pads, bell-like plucks, gentle 808s, and chorus-washed synths. It retains the swingy hi-hats and minimal drum programming of classic plugg beats, but coats them in a hazy, dreamlike atmosphere.

Regalia is a cinematic, orchestral-trap hybrid built around lush string sections, dreamy piano motifs, and other symphonic colors layered over modern trap percussion.

The Wave is a loosely defined cluster of American post-hardcore/emo bands that surged in the early 2010s as emo-pop’s mainstream moment faded. The name was a tongue‑in‑cheek scene tag that stuck in press coverage, but it points to a real overlap in sound, ethos, and touring networks.
