Issued the same year as Bebel Gilberto's first full-length solo album TANTO TEMPO, TANTO TEMPO REMIXES is, as the name implies, a series of remixed tracks from that debut. Bebel is the daughter of Joao Gilberto (the man who almost single-handedly popularized bossa nova), and has been singing and performing since an early age. Her ease with bossa nova and flair for translating it into a contemporary context is abundantly clear. For good measure, REMIXES features the work of top-notch DJs and producers, including Rae & Christian, Peter Kruder (of Kruder & Dorfmeister fame), and King Britt.
Breezy bossa grooves dominate the set, buttressed by jazzy club beats and washes of colorful synthesizer. "August Day Song," remixed by Chateau Flight, has an almost techno/new wave feel, as does Kruder's treatment of the mesmerizing title track. Monoaural's downtempo, trip-hop take on the beautiful "Mais Feliz" recalls Portishead, while the samba-touched "Sem Conencao, re-worked by Sin Plomo, blends Gilberto's light, airy melodies with insistent, thudding beats. Gilberto's voice glides through these productions, losing none its charm for all the fancy dressing. Appropriate for lounging or dancing, TANTO TEMPO REMIXES is one of the finer Brazilian remix albums available.
