After a few years with other bands, the members of Allan decided to join together to express the concept that their music would show a strong effort to explore song structure, dynamics, and an attempt at a musical balance between the visceral and the cerebral. Using a heavy music foundation, they liken what they create to applying colors and textures to a canvas of intensity and explosiveness.

No Ritmo
Allan Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

No copo mais gelo,
O meu corpo quente
O grave batendo
E eu me perdendo
Não sei onde vou parar
Não sei onde vou parar

Dança, vem mexendo,

Vem fazendo desse jeito
Já sei o que vai rolar
Já sei o que vai rolar

No ritmo cê vem
Mostrar como faz bem
Gosto quando cê
Hum, hum, hum
Quero você no ritmo

No ritmo do som
(Você me ganha)
Me perco um pouco mais
(Você me encontra)
Me mostra o que cê tem

(Então vem)
Te mostro como faz

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Allan's song "No Ritmo" depict a lively and sensual atmosphere where the singer is caught up in the moment and unsure of where it will lead them. The mention of "no copo mais gelo" (in the coldest glass) juxtaposes the coolness of the drink with the warmth of the singer's body, emphasizing the contrast between external and internal sensations. The "grave batendo" (bass pounding) adds a rhythmic element, further heightening the intensity of the situation.

As the song progresses, the lyrics shift to focus on dancing and movement, with the invitation to "dança, vem mexendo" (dance, come sway) encouraging a carefree and uninhibited attitude. The phrase "já sei o que vai rolar" (I already know what's going to happen) suggests a familiarity with the situation, hinting at previous experiences and expectations.

The chorus emphasizes the importance of being in sync with the rhythm. The repetition of "no ritmo" serves as a mantra, reinforcing the idea that being in tune with the music brings pleasure and fulfillment. The line "mostrar como faz bem" (showing how good it feels) implies that moving to the beat provides a sense of satisfaction and enjoyment.

Towards the end of the lyrics, there is a reciprocal desire for connection. The line "quero você no ritmo" (I want you in the rhythm) suggests a yearning for someone's presence in that moment, emphasizing the importance of shared experiences. The phrase "você me ganha" (you win me over) and "você me encontra" (you find me) depicts a sense of surrender and vulnerability, highlighting the magnetic pull between the two individuals. The lyrics close with the promise of reciprocity, as the singer invites the other person to see how they "faz" (does things), implying an exchange of passion and pleasure.
