Free Music Notes for Bebel Gilberto: Remixed
Free Music Review: Bebel gets an electronica makeover
Hit: 5 Stars
What is it about remixes that we typically like that didn't exist on the original? Many like the new flavor to a familiar song, the addition of more groove, the rearranging of beats, the phasing in and out of other genres like nu-jazz and spacey electronic elements that result in a complete redeux: a complete makeover if you will, new and improved shake-your-booty music results when it is successfully rearranged. Such is the case with this fine bit of bossa-nova-nu-jazz inspired electronica that features the sensual vocal stylings of Bebel Gilberto. Her of the soft as a whisper sexy musings comes across between the remix like a purring kitten; she is just too hard to resist. Originals are just that and should not be compared. Especially tasty songs include Thievery Corporations "Cada Beijo" that features soft jazzy-samba grooves that are like a sunset on Rio, the catchy "Aganju" gets a new sound that gets a hip-hop-hicup makeover for an interesting nu-groove and the Tom Middleton's Cosmos mix of "Simplemente" is a crafty reinterpretation of the original. The songs in English (7) are very nice but there is someting that is lost when Bebel switches languages , personally I prefer her offerings in Portuguese, I guess it adds to the exotic nature of her music. If you liked "Tanto Tiempo" than you probably will like these dancefloor versions. The bonus is a mini-disc that features six more dance floor remixes of the same songs with the irresitible "Aranju" getting the makeover twice. If you like Brazilian music and remixes than you will probably like this offering by six degrees that is a bargain.
Bebel Gilberto: Remixed Poster
Bebel Gilberto?s debut CD, Tanto Tempo became a worldwide phenomenon, selling a million copies around the globe and captivating audiences with its mix of classic bossa-nova updated with cool electronica.On her latest, Grammy nominated release, simply titled, Bebel Gilberto , Bebel collaborated with producer Marius de Vries (Madonna, Bjork, Annie Lennox) and once again topped the Billboard, amazon.com and Apple i-Tunes World Charts.
Now, an international cast of the world?s best dance, hip-hop and electronica producers has remixed the songs from Bebel Gilberto into a variety of fresh, modern styles. From well known masters like, Thievery Corporation, Tom Middleton, Guy Sigsworth, DJ Spinna and Grant Nelson to such fast rising new talents as, Spiritual South, Yam Who? and Telefon Tel Aviv, Bebel Gilberto Remixed collects an impressive cross section of some of the dance world?s brightest stars.
Daughter of original Bossa Nova legends Joao Gilberto and Miucha, niece of the great singer-songwriter Chico Burque, Bebel Gilberto's talents have proven more than worthy of her exalted descent. She has not only helped to revitalize modern Brazilian music but has established it as a major force on the world stage. But are these 13 remixes worthy of her? The answer is a qualified yes. The whole point of this type of exercise is to reveal new facets of an existing track by inviting another artist to collaborate on it--after the fact. Everyone involved with these re-workings displays considerable taste and restraint; thus any negative impressions would have to be completely subjective. The originals were produced by Marius de Vries and were comparatively pop-oriented anyway. Gently-imposed beats and touches of chilly electronica do not freeze the singer's digital hothouse bloom but add an additional dimension. Some tunes, such as Céu Distante, even emerge embellished with a surprisingly genteel, retro finesse. --Christina Roden
