Artist:
Bebel Gilberto
Release Date: 10/16/2001
Genre: Electronic-Dance
{$Bebel Gilberto}'s {^Tanto Tempo Remixes} is a sultry collection of dancey {\Latin American} tracks. One of the things that's really great about {$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 {$Bebel Gilberto}'s sweet-voiced down-tempo {\Latin} tracks, and the other half is stomping out the luxurious polyrhythms that fully animate {^Tanto Tempo Remixes}. It's important to mention that {$Bebel Gilberto} is the daughter of veteran {\bossa nova} crooner {$Joao Gilberto}, whose work literally created the {\bossa nova} genre, and at the same time brought then-wife {$Astrud Gilberto} to the attention of America. This is an enthusiastic and lively recording that features the work of {$Mario Caldato, Jr.}, {$Peter Kruder}, {$Rae & Christian}, and many others. This is a great work; it has all of the ingredients that make up a great record: {$Bebel Gilberto}'s great vocals, fresh melodic hooks, nice rhythms, and most of all, a strong sense soulful passion. ~ Matt Borghi, All Music Guide
