-- :: Bebel Gilberto according to Crammed: "Our diva is in Brazil, preparing her new album due to be out in late 2003." and read a recent April 2003 article on her that reveals a little on the upcoming album: http://www.crammed.be/news/bebelword.htm :: Pat C. she has a new album out on June 4 in Japan. according to HMV it's called 'Sunshine Suite.' http://www.hmv.co.jp/product/detail.asp?sku=1996844 and from her La-Chunga website: In 2001 her first album was released in Spain, Italy, Japan and Brazil. The collection of songs was critically acclaimed and a big success, especially in Japan. 2003 will see the release of a brandew Pat C album on which she has again collaborated with artists from all over Europe and Brazil. The instrumental electro-bossa, club pop and downbeat pieces, that have been provided by the musicians blend with her unique dreamlike voice into fantastic songs that will make you dream, smile, dance and/or hug the world. The japanese version also features a cover version of "Toshishita No Otokonoko" which has been originally performed by the Candies. :: Cibelle this is pasted from the Crammed website. there are also two sound samples below: Cibelle's distinctive and moving voice graced Suba's legendary album "São Paulo Confessions". In this superbly accomplished debut, she now introduces us to her own world, full of fantasy and emotion. She conceived & co-produced the album and wrote most of the songs (in English and Protuguese) which take us from bossa nova to electronic downtempo via tropicalia, samba soul, psychedelic post-rock and jazz, while first and foremost bearing the unmistakable Cibelle stamp. The album was produced by Apollo 9 (Brazil's most adventurous producer) and mixed by Morcheeba's sonic architects, Chris Harrison & Pete Norris. http://www.crammed.be/zir/realaudio/15/no_samba_x.rm http://www.crammed.be/zir/realaudio/15/waiting.rm and a little more info from Six Degrees Records: Cibelle - Cibelle (Six Degrees Travel Series) Release date: 6/17/03 The woman behind the distinctive voice on Suba's acclaimed Sao Paulo Confessions has finally released her first solo project. It is often said that music is the life-blood of Brazilians: Cibelle is living proof. Cibelle wrote the majority of the songs and lyrics (which she performs in both English and Portuguese) on this fascinating debut. The album is organic and chameleon- like, as only a Cibelle album can be, moving mellifluously through a variety of styles and taking the listener on a colorful and graceful ride through her personal experiences. The key sound-sculptor on the project is São Paulo's premiere electronic producer, Apollo 9, but Cibelle has also peppered the project with a host of venerable musicians and guest vocalists, from percussionist João Parahyba (Trio Mocotó) and Cuban pianist Pepe Cisneros, to guitarist and composer Ari Moraes. The album was mixed in London by Morcheeba's Chris Harrison and Pete Norris. http://www.sixdegreesrecords.com/instudio/ :: Other Releases April 22nd Adachi Tomomi Royal Chorus "Yo" cd on Tzadik (New Japan Series) May 6th v/a "Ikebana: Merzbow's Amlux Rebuilt, Reused and Recycled" remix cd on Important (w/Mouse on Mars, Alec Empire, Cornelius, Kid 606, Negativland, Kawabata Makoto, Nobukaza Takemura, Plug, EAR, Chicks On Speed, DJ/Rupture, Kim Hiorthoy, Lasse Marhaug, John Wiese, and more) May Yamamoto Seiichi "Nu Frequency" cd on Tzadik No Date Yet Koji Asano "Absurd Summer", "Piano Suite Vol. 1", and "Gondola Odyssey" cds on Solstice -- The Eclectic Sounds of Japan [Sound :: Lounge] http://groups.yahoo.com/group/SoundLounge
