Anderson do Paraíso is one of the most influential and seminal DJs and producers behind the downtempo, dark baile funk sound of Belo Horizonte. He has gained notoriety for songs that create an unusual ghostly atmosphere, full of suspense and mystery, over the frantic whirl of the famous Brazilian beat. Do Paraiso’s music has an unorthodox, innovative approach that strips down its elements for a radical minimal sound, underlining silence to build cinematic suspense. “Blogueira Que Virou Puta” showcases the whispery voice of MC Paulin do G floating in a refined and sparse structure oscillating between sensuality and terror, while the haunted bells of “Chama as Sua Colegas’ and the choir of “Ultimo Medo do Ano” conjure a haunted aura of baile funk. Stretching the boundaries of the dancefloor, Anderson Do Paraiso’s music showcases an intricate sound craft and a futurist vision of the genre through mixing different types of baile funk beats in single tracks.
