Project Description
"You are welcome to find out / What is this new scene" (Translated word to word from the genre anthem incipit)
Trance Hop is a fusion music project that joins PsyTrance beats and melodies with Hip-Hop guerilla lyricism. The lyrics are often directed to the minorities, giving them a "high-five" so to speak. The genre demands against political extremisms and social inequalities, in an attempt to defend whats left of our equality and equity.

Description of the project
Summary
I'm Tiago "A Aberração" Matos and I have a project called Trance Hop. A new musical genre that progresses with RAP lyrics read to the sound of Trance beats. Trance Hop is the genre that brings both the word to EDM and a new rhythm to Hip Hop. It can be heard reflectively at home but it has the energy: who wants to dance, go ahead.
My job involves writing guerrilla lyrics and passing on the left-handed message. Producing EDM tracks has always been a hobby of mine and that made the idealization of this new musical genre a lot easier.
For this project I only need a computer with a DAW, a microphone, a headset and a place to write.

Key objectives for sustainability
Doesn't really apply. I can vouch to be as green as I can in future show and propaganda, but with that said i don't think i can do much more.
Key objectives for aesthetics and quality
Trance Hop is a combination of 3 aesthetical factors: first off, the Electronic sound; second the organic instrument (always different and every track has one); lastly the voice and lyricism. It is a brand new musical scene and genre and deserves to be listened to carefully.
Key objectives for inclusion
The lyrics of my projects try to influence self-awareness and respect for the next person no matter their creed, gender, ethnicity, or sexual preference.
e.g: "Our color doesn't dictate anything I already explained I already explained / The people rule the city and the king rules the people. / And the king of today is Trance and Hip Hop / It's the LGBT Moor, it's the surrender and the STOP sign / That the black lives of the matter, matter as much as yours / The king goes naked the king goes naked and people likewise go naked / No money and little idea who knows what they want / They don't even know they're going to die, they don't even see what there is to see / The color of the world is all if there is respect and there is love / Let us be the final node and let our color be neutral"
With that said the project will never support populist or fascist ideals, being that its main goal is to promote equality through equity.
