Projeto «Musica Em Casa» — Saigon (by Emilio Santiago)
When dealing with Brazilian musicians there definitely would be a moment when they will try to deep dive you into their native music. That moment came on a previous week when Macio of the «Musica Em Casa» project suggested to perform a piece called «Saigon» of Brazilian singer.
And here is a video of how we perform this piece of music.

There Will Never Be Another You — Voice and Guitar duo
There Will Never Be Another You — Voice and Guitar duo of Radha Thomas from India and Oleg Maximov from Russia.
That was a real challenge for me! I never have played a solo without any help of a band, looper, drum machine of a backing track for at least. I was struggling to do that this time also, but Radha stopped me and forced to play. She told me «Hey, do not cheat on the listeners, play like Joe Pass did without any chordal background».

"Shake It Off" - Taylor Swift Cover By Oleg Maximov & Aniah Alves
Hello, guys! This is our new cover of the famous song "Shake it off" by Taylor Swift. This single was out on the 18th of August, 2014. It ranked first in Billboard Hot 100 and later on was nominated for the Grammy Award. Just recently the song turned 6 years old and we decided to celebrate its birthday with singing it in our own way :) Charismatic singer Aniah Alves from the Netherlands helped me to create this video while mixing and mastering was done by a sound engineer Santiago Morillo Segovia from Columbia. Our international trio hopes that you have as much fun watching this cover as much as we had making it :) Special thanks to the Guitar-Guitar music store in Rostov-on-Don (Russia), where the video was shot, for providing financial support. If you wanna see more videos from me and my other international colleagues in the future make sure to subscribe. You can also support my music by donating money or hiring me as a studio musician: https://linktr.ee/olegmaximov
The Maid in the Meadow (by Gigi Santella). Classical guitar
Working online brings unexpected opportunities. I never played the guitar in a tuning other than the standard (well, except for lowering the 6th string in D). And I never used a capo: it always seemed to me that I must transpose the song using brain rather than capo. And besides, for 4 years I have not played the classical guitar. And here comes an order from Mr. Gigi Santella from Los Angeles: to record his solo guitar piece using a guitar tuned to the Nick Drake's tuning(CGCFCE) and with a capo on the 5th fret. The result of the order in this video.
