VOLUME 21 - CIBELLE

If anyone will ask Cibelle to describe her music, he'll find the words "tropical/punk" - in this order. But there's something more in her. On the stage or in the record, the artist combines her beautiful voice with tender acoustic instrumentations, toys' sounds, enthusiastics guitars, eletronic effects and other surprises. Cibelle was born in São Paulo and lives in London, sings in french, portuguese and english. She's inovator and classic at the same time.

She came to Brazil to perform in Tim Festival's "Novas Divas" and she stayed a little bit longer for her solo concert. And it was in her busy sound check, in the inspired Auditório do Ibirapuera, that Cibelle took away all her instruments and offered us the old and good combination of just voice and guitar. And it wasn't needed more than 15 minutes to shoot her.

SIDE A - WHITE HAIR
november 2007 - são paulo (sp) - on the stairs

"White hair" (Cibelle) was the side A, which is a never heard before song, that she's been performing in her live concerts. It was recorded on the stairs, in the middle of some old posters of previous performances at that same place, where she was going to play that night.




SIDE B - INSTANTE DE DOIS
(moment of two)
november 2007 - são paulo (sp) - on the ground

"Instante de dois", the side B, also written by her, is a track from her most recent album "Shine of Dried Electric Leaves" (2006). It was recorded under the brilliant sculpture of Tomie Ohtake, that, with its superlative's proportions, at the same time, brought contrast and complement to the sweetness of the song.
