Bossa Nova, Chill, and Jazz
- Thread starter Berlin
- Start date
Great thread, so many contributions I couldn't go through them all! I love Bossa. I also love samba, but Bossa is the shiz. I'm gonna post three of my many faves, starting with Luiz Bonfa (sorry if any of these are repeat posts):
I have a longer (maybe even nicer?) recording of Bonfa's "Batacuda" on my playlists, but this is such a yes yes piece of music in any rendition:
I also recommend the song "Zana" by Bet E. & Stef ~ a Canadian duo with a shiny & tight modern bossa style. I have the song file, but for some reason the video seems unavailable online, so I won't be able to link it.
Thanks OP for starting this :}

Second of three: I turn it up, relax, and inevitably smile in the dark. Gal Costa and company:
Oh, man! <3

Electronica-chill from Suba, released about the same time as Bebel's debut album:
About Suba:
"On November 2, 1999, he was working on the post-production of the album of his new-found diva, Bebel Gilberto, when his studio caught fire. Overcome by smoke, he died trying to rescue the newly recorded material with her. Suba died just a few days after the release of his now-legendary album São Paulo Confessions, and shortly before the completion of Bebel Gilberto's acclaimed Tanto Tempo, the biggest selling Brazilian album outside Brazil."
