The following article was featured in Trap Metal Magazine issue #1 CHECK IT OUT HERE
1. Your music pulls from deathcore and trap metal, two aggressive genres. How did you
land on such an intense sound?
Honestly, it’s the feeling. If you love the feeling there is nothing to explain.
2. When you first started out, did you have a clear vision of the type of music you wanted
to make, or did it evolve over time?
Yes and No. I started as a producer then tested the waters with trap metal. In the
beginning, I was trying to sound like other artists but over time I started creating my own.
3. What were you doing before ATEO? Did you have other passions or aspirations before this one?
Yes. I was a producer. Producing commercial and rap beats. Not bad if I have to say so
myself. Some played on the radio.
4. Lyrically, your songs seem to dive deep into dark, personal topics. Where do you pull
inspiration from when writing?
From current situations or the past. Sometimes I use a character from an anime or game.
5. The trap metal scene is growing, but deathcore influences are still kind of tight niche.
How has the reception been from both metalheads and rap fans in your experience?
I’ve done many shows, rap promoters were more friendly and helpful. Fans were shocked
but that’s what I expected. Metal promoters not so much. I got canceled once or twice.
6. How do you keep your energy up when recording or performing something as intense
as your music? Do you have a routine or ritual to get in the zone?
No I don’t. Sit in my bedroom, until I write something really good, when the feeling is
there, I try to keep it up as long as possible.
7. Collabs are huge in the trap metal space. Is there anyone in the scene you’d love to
work with that you haven’t yet?
Yes, my music influence changed over the years, I would like to work with G59 boy$, and
anybody that’s really good.
8. Where do you see yourself in 10 years? What is your end game?
Doing this for fun. It would be scary if I’m doing this as a “Job”. That’s my take on it.
9. What can we expect in the months to come? What about next year?
More tracks, At least been noticed by our peeps.
10. What do you think sets your music apart from other trap metal artists out there right now?
Melodic, ours has more of a melodic range with the beat and vocals.
11. Thank you for your time is there anything else you would like to add?
Take an opportunity to listen to our graveyard city tracks and we have an amazing Collab
with a well known trap metal coming out soon.
