Complextro is a sub-genre of Electro House music. The first credible complextro track is credited as Firepower by Wolfgang Gartner released august 18 2009. The main defining feature of complextro is the cut up bassline sections with heavy modulation and variance. It takes elements of dubstep, fidget house and electro house and combines them together. Since the heaviest influence of complextro is electro house BPM ranges from 126-130 NOT 140.

Deriving its influences from Heavy basslines of dubstep, electro house, and fidget house, Complextro is a genre that rose during the latter half of 2010 and is usually credited to SebastiAn. The word form comes from complex, and electro, combining to form "complextro". Typically the tempo is a faster 140+ BPM, and the beats may or may not be syncopated, appearing almost as a break-style. Along with that, this genre is typified by heavy basslines and glitchy vocal, and or synth samples, but also by complex additive synthesis(usually 8+ synth patterns per bar count).
This style of music is almost always confused with dubstep, mostly in the case of Skrillex, and Porter Robinson who are two artists currently raping the shit out the genre. Along with them is Wolfgang Gartner, and the aforementioned SebastiAn, and while there are new artists rising, the complexity and difficulty of producing complextro tracks usually makes this genre only fit for the select few.
It's also good at parties
People will also probably not believe that it even exists.

Ex a:
"Hey man, did you hear scary monsters by skrillex? that's some sick dubstep right there"
"excuse me fine sir, but it appears that skrillex is not a dubstep artist at all, but rather a complextro one"
"what the fuck is that?"
Ex b:
"yo man, I just listened to Porter Robinson, that niggah has some tight ass complextro beats for a 19 year old"
"hell yes, negro, Porter Robinson is "the shit", yo"
"yo man, what the fuck is up with your robot voice?"

The only EDM genre where all tracks sounds exactly the same. Complextro features simple shitty dubstep bass house drops, copied build-ups and chipmunk vocals unrelated to anything
How to make Complextro:
1. Take a dubstep drop loop and shorten it to 128 BPM.
2. Add high pitched vocals so it sounds like you're listening to something from Alvin and the chipmunks
3. Make a buildup with uplifter samples you can found in any pirated vengeance sample pack.
4. For the drop take the dubstep drop loop you shortened and add a House drum loop to it so it sounds like a House-Dubstep mess
5. In order to be called 'creative' add some chiptune at the beginning
6. ???
7. Submit the track to monstercat
8. Get tons of edgy "animators" to make animation memes of your shitty song
9. Profit
After the success of Complextro on monstercat, It became one of those most over saturated genres since 2014
