Is This Brazil's FUNKIEST Bass Line?! 

#bass #basslesson #analysis #transcription #MPB #paulthompson
I just discovered the Great Brazilian singer/musician/producer ED MOTTA, his brilliant music, and his library of incredible bass lines!
I'll break down, arguably, his MOST famous bass line ("Marta" aka "Smile" from his 2013 release, AOR), show you how it's played, show you who played it (Mr. Groove), explain why it's so popular in Brazil, and explain how Ed himself comes up with most of the bass lines on his records.
It's part Jazz, part Bossa Nova, part R&B, part Funk, even part Yacht Rock and it's incredible. Check it out.
