Jingle BellsHERO

weedmau5 – Jingle Bells

This is a remix of the classic Jingle Bells in an electro sound style exemplified by acts like Justice.

Because it uses strings and brass, it’s often categorized under the hip-hop subgenre T-trap (as those elements are frequently used in trap).

However, in the case of this track, it leans more toward genres known as French electro and nu-disco.
