About Cibelle
Product Description Cibelle's distinctive and moving voice graced Suba's legendary album São Paulo Confessions. On her superbly accomplished debut, Cibelle takes us on a sonic journey into bossa nova and downtempo electronic music via tropicalia, samba soul, psychedelic post-rock and jazz. Cibelle's solo debut was produced by one of Brazil's most exciting talents, Apollo 9, and mixed by Morcheeba's audio architects, Chris Harrison and Pete Norris. These fresh new tracks, sung in both Portuguese and English, invite the listener into this Paulista's trippy, electronic, post-bossa nova world. Amazon.com Although this is her debut, Brazilian singer Cibelle (pronounced "see-BELL-ee") has already made a name for herself with standout appearances on Subas landmark São Paolo Confessions and Ottos criminally overlooked Condom Black. This self-titled effort is cut from the same cloth with help from noted producer Apollo 9 and the sonic architects from Morcheeba. But even with this support, the chanteuses sultry sing-song voice (think Bebel Gilberto and Astrid Gilberto) is rightly pushed to the fore, allowing her rich vocal nuances to shine through regardless of whether she is singing in Portuguese or English. She also immerses herself in the production and writing here, writing or co-writing nearly all the music using an even mix of live instrumentation and textured programming backdrops. Highlights include the loose and funky "No Prego," the gentle ballad "Ill Be" and the nearly traditional samba "Só Sei Viver No Samba." This is a promising first step from a talented up-and-comer. --Tad Hendrickson
