   About ZAPTRA

ƒ²ƒÙƒßƒ×ƒâƒÑƒàƒØƒé


Arturo Paz is the founder of Zaptra and has been playing and composing music for the last 9 years. Instruments such as guitar, bass, drums, piano and any computer based software. Sebastian A. Bach joined Zaptra immediately after it was founded. Playing and composing music for 8 years. Instruments such as Guitar, Bass, drums, piano, and any computer based software. Art and Sebastian had already been playing music together in a Band called ¡§ Sebastian¡¦s Moon¡¨ formed in 2000. The band split due to complications involving commitment and priorities. Art and Sebastian kept composing music through the years and playing various shows as a two piece. Sebastian having another project of his own "The Bach's" put the two on hold for a little while. In April of 2004, Art had an idea of producing beats and synth compositions. Not exactly sure where it would lead him, innovatively took the approach to a new level in his musical existence. Therefore producing the sounds of ZAPTRA. Both of them attended school in the Recording Arts program, to better understand how they were going to make the sounds they produce be as great as any frequency can sound. 2007 comes around and Sebastian forms "Oh yeah, the future" With Art Paz playing bass. Both of them hard at work putting out music when they can. As much as Art and Sebastian Can. ZAPTRA in the works with releasing a long awaiting E.P. "How's your fucked up day?" and following the release of a full length album "Songs of life" Release date still unknown. Stay tuned.

" ZAPTRA "- I've come along way to finally get to this point in my life where music is my Absolute power. I guess you can say for the past 4 years of struggle, pain, pleasure, love and confusion. I've put out something that respectfully gives humanity a chance to listen to. "real music". With true Cognizance. Colliding forces with nature has given me the chance to create such an innovative style of melodies. Breaking through the barriers and corruption, has given me the chance to be ectoplasmic. I've been living in a very corrupt world, where war and peace are Humanities greatest diversities. Love and hate are humanities strongest & weakest Attributions. Born , April 2004 on a very confused and unsure day. ZAPTRA is Alive and full of aspiration. It began with the idea to just make Aphex twin like beats. Little did I know it would reach a greater exuberant level. My facet has finally begun. My joy is complete. ZAPTRA has been accepted and very well respected. ZAPTRA is only in its prime and has the rest of time to progress. Their will be many different levels in ZAPTRA and many different messages. To stay tuned and aware is the best way to keep up with ZAPTRA. evolution. We must never forget who we are and where we came from.
