The Greatest Music
Tanto tempo
The 925th greatest album of all time
Tanto Tempo, released in 2000 by Bebel Gilberto, blends classic bossa nova and samba songwriting with downtempo electronic and lounge production to create a warm, intimate sound characterized by soft, breathy vocals, gentle acoustic guitar, subtle percussion, and ambient electronic textures. The album presents a modern, chilled-out take on Brazilian music that broadened exposure for bossa nova among lounge and downtempo audiences and helped establish Gilberto as a prominent voice in contemporary Latin-influenced pop.
