Originally released in 2000, \u003cem\u003eTanto Tempo\u003c\/em\u003e had become an international best seller, making it one of the most globally successful albums of Brazilian music ever. Produced by Suba (the São Paulo-based Serbian producer who tragically passed away just before the release of the album), and featuring collaborations with Amon Tobin, Mario Caldato, Chris Franck \u0026amp; Nina Miranda, and the Thievery Corporation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFrom the original press release:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe album features guest appearances by prestigious musicians such as veteran pianist\/arranger João Donato, guitarists Celso Fonseca and Luis do Monte, percussionists João Parahyba and Carlinhos Brown, drummer Robertinho Silva, and a couple of horn sections who play in a genuine 70's sambasoulfunk style.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eTanto Tempo\u003c\/em\u003e's modernist angle is supplied by Suba's typical arrangements and production, as well as by contributions from young electro-brazilophiles such as Smoke City, Thievery Corporation, Beastie Boys producer Mario Caldato Jr and NinjaTune artist Amon Tobin.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOut of the album's eleven songs, seven are original compositions (including a new, acoustic version of Sem Contenção, Bebel's acclaimed contribution to the Brasil2mil compilation) while the remaining four are reinterpretations of classic songs by Chico Buarque, Marcos Valle, Vinicius de Moraes\/Baden Powell, and Gilberto Gil\/João Donato (Bananeira, which was specially re-arranged for the occasion by the latter of its co-writers).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEnter the world of Bebel Gilberto : never has bossa nova sounded simultaneously as familiar and as new, as emotional and as dreamy... there's little chance that you won't badly fall under Bebel's exquisite spell. — (\u003ca href=\"http:\/\/www.crammed.be\/index.php?id=37\u0026amp;rel_id=27\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"\u003evia Label\u003c\/a\u003e)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e—\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAfter 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. 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 and similar recordings of the '60s. The tone is restrained and subdued, simmering over the low heat of quiet passion; the instrumentation is mostly acoustic, although there are some unobtrusively electronic dance-club sounds as well. Overall, Tanto Tempo is a terrific, promising way for Gilberto to make her first impression as a solo artist. — (via \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.allmusic.com\/album\/tanto-tempo-mw0000051160\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"\u003eAllMusic\u003c\/a\u003e)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e—\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSome musical genres change violently in sudden lurches. Others sway and shimmy forwards, evolving so gracefully so you hardly notice. When the impeccably laid back Brazilian bossa nova decides to embrace modern technology there's no surprise it should do so ever so gently.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBebel Gilberto has a pretty daunting musical heritage to live up to. Her father is João Gilberto, the man who invented bossa nova, and her mother is the singer Miúcha. Bebel's first public appearance was a concert at Carnegie Hall with her mother and Stan Getz when she was nine years old. So it's not surprising that shes taken a while to record this debut album. After a debut EP in 1986 shes been working and singing on other peoples records for over ten years before taking the plunge. And this album shows she was wise to wait - it's a quiet triumph, a very modern marriage of classic styles and new technology. No clattering drum machines here, but rather cunningly arranged samples and collages take you even further into a uniquely relaxed state of mind.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe opening track \"Samba da Bencao\" sets the tone, a dreamy selection of sax and clarinet samples and drum loops, set alongside real time guitar and traditional percussion. Tracks such as this and the startling album closer \"No Return\" fit perfectly alongside more traditional standards such as So Nice (Summer Samba) and Gilberto Gil's 'Bananeira. Portugese and English lyrics dovetail effortlessly together. And just when you're in danger of becoming so relaxed you might drop off altogether the mood just goes uptempo enough to keep your attention.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis album has been granted a British release just in time for the final fling of that perverse and unpredictable beast, the English summer. It's hot. You need to cool down. This album is perfect for the purpose. — (via \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.bbc.co.uk\/music\/reviews\/gzbd\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"\u003eBBC Music\u003c\/a\u003e)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e—\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eReissued, 45 RPM, 2 LP, housed in gatefold sleeve\u003cbr\u003eRemastered from the original tapes\u003cbr\u003eIncludes unreleased texts and photos\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ciframe width=\"100%\" height=\"352\" style=\"border-radius: 12px;\" data-testid=\"embed-iframe\" src=\"https:\/\/open.spotify.com\/embed\/album\/14IRZSX8M3b8RQ3iWmxNbt?utm_source=generator\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\" allow=\"autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; fullscreen; picture-in-picture\" loading=\"lazy\"\u003e\u003c\/iframe\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eVinyl Tracklist\u003cbr\u003eA1 Samba Da Benção\u003cbr\u003eA2 August Day Song\u003cbr\u003eA3 Tanto Tempo\u003cbr\u003eB1 Sem Contenção\u003cbr\u003eB2 Mais Feliz\u003cbr\u003eB3 Alguém\u003cbr\u003eC1 So Nice (Summer Samba)\u003cbr\u003eC2 Lonely\u003cbr\u003eC3 Bananeira\u003cbr\u003eD1 Samba E Amor\u003cbr\u003eD2 Close Your Eyes\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e↓\u003cbr\u003eLabel: Crammed Discs \/\/ Ziriguiboom\u003cbr\u003eFormat: 2 x Vinyl, LP, 45 RPM, Album, Reissue, Remastered, Gatefold\u003cbr\u003eReissued: 2025 \/ Originally Released: 2000\u003cbr\u003eGenre: Jazz, Electronic\u003cbr\u003eStyle: Bossa Nova, Future Jazz, Downtempo, Latin\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFile under: TAV Essential Listening\u003cbr\u003eFile under: Latin Influenced\u003cbr\u003e⦿\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Crammed Discs","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46409550364830,"sku":"5400863187545","price":70.0,"currency_code":"SGD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0584\/5434\/3838\/files\/61xNBPTJSML-_UF894-1000_QL80.jpg?v=1768629555","url":"https:\/\/theanalogvault.mom\/products\/bebel-gilberto-tanto-tempo-25th-anniversary-edition","provider":"The Analog Vault","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
