Prepare to be transported to a musical realm where the timeless melodies of 'Respect Yourself' by Otis Redding and the captivating ballad 'Push Me Away,' originally penned by Michael and Randy Jackson and recorded by The Jacksons, find a captivating new life. In this new episode, we journey into the world of 'Bossa Nova Noites Bahia Nights,' an album that seamlessly blends the vibrant rhythms of Brazil with the soul-stirring sounds of iconic American songwriters. We'll uncover the creative process behind this unique project, featuring an interview with producer Robert Hėbert, who masterfully guides two emerging Brazilian singers, Mari Bodas and Monique Ellen, on this captivating musical adventure.
What are the three key elements Robert emphasizes in his production process?
“The Brazilian meter, rhythmic meter is different than the American rhythmic meter. And as someone who's outside of this culture, I'm an American from Chicago producing in Brazil with Brazilian musicians, the last thing that I should do…is impose their meter sense of rhythm on Brazilian musicians.” – Robert Hėbert
Robert's passion for music and dedication to authenticity shine through in his production, resulting in an album that is both innovative and respectful of its influences.
