I can’t think of a more deserving treatment for Bebel Gilberto than a loving remix project. That’s exactly what the artists do on Tanto Tempo Remixes. People from all over the world have gathered to pay homage to one of the new and upcoming Brazilian singers by way of recreating her music ever so slightly to make it sound that much different. Bebel gets the treatment from artists like Rae & Christian (album opener “Bananeira�), Peter Kruder, Mario Caldato Jr., Ananda Project, Da Lata, 4hero, and King Britt to name a few of the more prominent ones. Often on remix projects such as this focus is lost and you end up with a fragmented album with every song sounding completely different. All the artists included on Tanto Tempo Remixes somehow manage to keep things down and keep it fairly similar in context. They never stray too far from original songs (which are brilliant in their own right). This is a great companion to Bebel Gilberto’s album and both are very creative and individual.
