THE Rolling Stone Brazil He talked to the artist to understand how the project was born, see the interview below.

Rolling Stone Brazil: Where did the idea of mixing trap with panta tree?
Arthurzim: In some older sounds I already used some forró elements, as in the track “Backwoods”And I noticed that the Piseiro brought a vibe up very similar to Trap at the shows. So, with the project Allvibesfrom the 3x Recordsmy seal, we launched this mixture and the audience embraced the idea very well!
RS: What are the strengths of each of these genres?
THE: Both Trap and the current pantairo bring a mixture of electronic elements on their bases and the two mostly approach similar themes, are songs most often for the roll that has an animated vibe and this ends up making the mixture very natural.
RS: And how was the process of production of mixtrapsy?
THE: Several nights turned in the studio, but although tiring it was fun, it was literally like being in another world, being in a studio with somals playing accordion, bass, etc … A stop that is not so common in Trap, but it was a moment of learning.
RS: How did you arrive in the names that collaborate with you on this album?
THE: It flowed naturally. I already listened to each one who is there with me in the project, so I introduced the mixtape and the idea, the brothers enjoyed, hugged and in a few weeks we were already in the studio putting the voice.
RS: Will the mix of trap and panta tree become a trend in your opinion?
THE: Maybe yes or maybe not, but in my view we already took a big step that was piercing the bubble of acceptance, a few years ago when someone tried to get out of the pattern the criticism was constant and nowadays you see several artists, Even those who are not from the Northeast, doing this wave or something similar and the main audience began to embrace this mixture of musical styles.
RS: Do you want to explore other rhythms?
THE: Sure, this mixtape has had several intentions and one of them is to show my audience that I do not hold to a single style, I am an artist and I love to make music, regardless of the music genre. Today I’m doing TRAP with Piseiro, but tomorrow I can launch a reggae or funk, finally, my art is not limited to a specific style.
