Diplo

Electropop
ElectropopHip hopTrap

Diplo is a Electropop and Hip hop act. Their catalogue also touches Trap. Their sound grew out of Kiesza, Swae Lee, DJ Fresh, Heat Waves and CSS. Those roots explain a lot about how Diplo arrange songs and choose their tones. They run in the same orbit as Jack Ü, Calvin Harris, Topic, Steve Aoki and Whethan, sharing audiences, venues and reference points rather than a straight line of influence. Their influence carried into Jauz, Nero, Galantis, Borgore and DJ Snake, where the same ideas turn up rearranged for a later generation. Altogether the chart holds 120 connections around Diplo, reaching back through Kiesza and forward to Jauz. Follow any of those threads to keep travelling the influence between bands and genres on Starverb.
