Now this is an interesting project; Brazilian standards and newly-composed music interpreted or transfigured by the old masters, rock stars and cutting-edge '90s musicians - with all the proceeds going to fight the spread of AIDS. What is so remarkable about this album is how wholeheartedly the younger musicians relate to the cruising Brazilian ...
After working with artists like Caetano Veloso, David Byrne, and Towa Tei, Bebel Gilberto made her solo recording debut in the U.S. with Tanto Tempo, licensed for American release in 2000 by Six Degrees. It's an album of stylish, cool, contemporary bossa nova, with Gilberto's vocals a bit more assured and polished than Astrud Gilberto's classic ...
Bebel Gilberto Remixed follows a certain pattern. After the Brazilian songstress with the sacred genes scored a hit record with her modern classic Tanto Tempo in 2000, her record label, Six Degrees, pieced together and released a remix album in its wake, Tanto Tempo Remixes. While that remix album didn't come close to matching the magic of its ...
The blueprint for Ultra Chilled, Vol. 2 is the same as the solid first edition in Ultra's downbeat series -- which rose above the heap of substandard, commercialized chill-out compilations -- with compilers balancing a few downtempo tracks by a varying cast of vocal artists (Coldplay, the Specials, Black Box Recorder, Nelly Furtado, Bebel Gilberto ...
Bebel Gilberto's Tanto Tempo Remixes is a sultry collection of dancey Latin American tracks. One of the things that's really great about Bebel Gilberto's Tanto Tempo Remixes is that it you can almost imagine hot summer nights at some obscure Latin American club where half the club is relaxing, mesmerized by Bebel Gilberto's sweet-voiced down-tempo ...
As tribute albums go, This Is Where I Belong: The Songs of Ray Davies and the Kinks achieves pop/rock perfection. Cobbled together by NBC television's Late Night With Conan O'Brien talent coordinator Jim Pitt, this collection wisely focuses on the Kinks' cherished album chestnuts as opposed to the well-worn hits that have either been a staple on ...

This compendium includes Bebel Gilberto, Bob Holroyd, Euphoria, and more remixed by At Jazz, King Britt, Demon, Romanthony, and more. ~ Tom Schulte, All Music Guide

Traveler '00 gathers global pop from Six Degrees' Travelers Series, which showcases underground musicians from around the world. Ekova's "Starlight in Daden (Da Lata Aurora Remix)," Bebel Gilberto's "Sem Contencio (Arling & Cameron Remix)," Renson's "Darkshine," and Banco De Gaia's "B2" are some of the album's most distinctive moments, along with ...
Brasil 2Mil: The Soul of Bass-O-Nova collects the best from the contemporary Brazilian music scene. The warm, inventive sounds of artists like Bebel Gilberto, Arto Lindsay, Chico Science, Suba and Smoke City reflect the melting pot of influences in Brazil's music, which includes hip-hop, dance, jazz and rock. This collection profiles the future of ...
Rhino's Martha Stewart Living: In the Summertime is a disc that's designed for an occasion, not a disc for listening. In this case, it's for, as the title says, summertime living, which means outside parties -- and this is a package for a suburban summer party, complete with recipes and crafts. So, the music is almost secondary to that, but it's ...
The NuTone Records/ Nettwerk Productions various-artists release Geosonic Grooves, Vol. 1 is a strangely interesting, yet profoundly melodious, work. Interestingly, this various-artists compilation takes the form of a mixed DJ set release, yet there is no DJ named, and the work runs together smoothly and seamlessly. Geosonic Grooves, Vol. 1 seems ...
Although Bebel Gilberto has been writing, performing, and recording since her childhood, this is only her second full-length solo album. The child of Brazilian legend Joćo Gilberto and the celebrated singer Miucha, she comes by her musical talent honestly, but has honed and developed it carefully over the years, being careful not to overexpose ...
On her self-titled 2004 sophomore album, Bebel Gilberto ditched the loungey grooves she explored on her debut and stuck to mostly acoustic elements -- guitars, percussion, strings -- to complement her voice, but her next release, Momento, finds the singer returning to both electronica and more traditional bossa nova. Gilberto is still, of course ...
With All in One, Bebel Gilberto made her home at Verve, which is not just an auspicious label for music but also the home of some of the best Brazilian records of all time -- by Antonio Carlos Jobim, Astrud Gilberto (who is no relation, although she was married to Bebel's father before Bebel's birth), Stan Getz, and, of course, her father, Joćo ...
