Tim Maia

Stay for Transfigured Night.

[romantic music] The great Tim Maia.

There's no use of a moonlight glow or the peaks where winter snows.

What's the use of the waves that will break in the cool of the evening? What is the evening without you? It's nothing.

And, uh, while speaking of great show and great Brazilian music, let's jump right into things here because next up we have a track by Cassiano.

[upbeat music] Cassiano is recognized as one of the, one of the three great precursors of the establishment of an American funk and soul influence over Brazilian popular music, yeah? [upbeat music] The other two people, uh, recon- recognized alongside him are Tim Maia and Hildon.

So if you ever listen to something on the, uh, some, some soul and fu- uh, some American soul and funk on the, on a Brazilian track, it all started somewhere, uh, in fact, with Cassiano and Hildon and Tim Maia all the way back to the '70s.

[upbeat music] This next one is a beautiful one from his first album called Imagim e Som.

[upbeat music] This w- by the way, this song...

Jesus.

This track would eventually be recorded as well by Tim Maia with another beautiful version, but this version we're gonna listen to is by Cassiano.

I'm talking about "Primavera Vai Chuva." Take a listen.

Yeah, pretty much every corner you take in Brazilian music regarding the 80s, they have a touch on that.

Whether it's Sandra de Sá or Tim Maia or someone lesser known, they are always there.

And, well, that's no coincidence, though, because they were actually really, really good at their jobs.

And, well, they made for some really good arrangements, specifically on some really good tracks that I really, really, really love.

But of course, if we're talking about the influence they had on other people's music, well, we have quite a bit to listen to here.

I'm going to play some snippets of these tracks here just so you guys can get a taste of what they are all about.

But, well, some of my favorite artists, Gilberto Gil, Tim Maia, Sander de Sá, Ed Motta, Marcos Valle, all of them worked with Robson Jorge and Lincoln Oliveira and made some of my favorite tracks from Brazilian music, period.

Like this one, which is one of my favorite tracks from Ed Motta called Daqui Pro Meio.

Então é basicamente cê ver o que que é o, o que que é a média e fala: "Tá bom, o que que é uma anomalia dentro dessa média? O que que é uma anomalia dentro desse mercado?" Ninguém canta no B2B, não tem música, não é pop, isso é uma anomalia aqui dentro.

Então tá bom, então vamo usar Tim Maia, vamo usar uma música aqui pra vender um cartão de benefício flexível.

Então essa, essa busca, ela diferencia as agências, porque você tem que ter um dia a dia impecável, e a gente sabe que o dia a dia não é feito de ame-anomalia, ele é sim feito de regra, e que bom que é, mas você precisa buscar esses picos no eletrocardiograma das marcas pra que ela se diferencie.

Como profissional de criação, cê tava falando, né, um pouco antes sobre ter aprendido, é, nas agências de holding que é preciso ter organização, ter método.

Yada, yada, you know the drill.

Okay, next up we have a track here by Tim Maia from his posthumous album Racional Vol.

3, Vol.

3.

Love physical media.

Support physical media.

Okay, with that out of the way, here is I Am Rational by Tim Maia.

You won't need no dope
