Jauzas The Shining / Obergman – Continuum Analysis EP [GO017]
The latest release from the Gladio Operations label showcases a new collaboration between two heavyweights of the European electro scene. This seventeenth release brings us a collaboration between Jauzas The Shining, a regular on the label, and the eagerly awaited debut of Swedish producer Obergman. This EP, entitled “Continuum Analysis”, opens with “Analysis Of My Ego” and “Untitled”, two powerful tracks by Jauzas The Shining, featuring the classic, forceful and dark basslines, beautifully accompanied by deep vocals, very much to the French producer’s taste. The final track is by the Swedish artist, who treats us to “Kap Flora”, a journey to be savoured amidst consistent basslines and arpeggios, which draws us into a soundscape that flirts with trance sounds. Side B opens with two tracks by Obergman: the first, “Continuum Bender”, with its intriguing and mysterious passages, gives way to “Closed Surface”, a track that slows the tempo down compared to the previous ones, and in which we hear a gentle line of more synthetic and relaxed sounds. The EP closes with the track “Con Gusto” by the French artist, a rhythmic journey with a fast-paced development, enhanced by cinematic vocals.

VA – My Heart is Dust Before Him: 21st Century Gasba from Algeria [HMRLP044]
Hive Mind worked with the iconic Oran based label and production house Édition Ahlem to bring this compilation of modern Gasba music. Across western Algeria, the gasba, a reed flute central to Bedouin folk traditions and ceremonial music, continues to appear in new forms. Once associated primarily with saint festivals and trance rituals, its distinctive hypnotic sound now sits alongside the drum machines, synths and electronic textures of contemporary raï. The recordings collected here come from Oran, the port city of Western Algeria widely regarded as the birthplace of raï. Before raï became an international pop phenomenon, its foundations were rooted in older Bedouin musical traditions from the surrounding countryside: gasba flute melodies, guellal drum rhythms, improvised folk poetry and songs performed at weddings, zerdas and informal gatherings. Many of the musical and emotional qualities later associated with raï, repetition, directness, ecstatic intensity and the use of everyday language, emerged from these rural forms.

Type-303 – Enigmatic Dreams [BLOW24]
Type-303 makes his first appearance on Cold Blow with ‘Enigmatic Dreams’, a six-track 12″ that balances acid with the softer, more melodic end of early-’90s Italian house. ‘Enigmatic Dreams’ doesn’t sit still for long, offering acid one minute, Balearic drift the next, then straight into something that could’ve come off an early-90s house white label. The big story here is ‘Atlantic Dreams,’ a collaboration with Dr. Rhythm aka Mark Woollard, whose old material got a second life through a previous reissue. Turns out Woollard kept composing for music libraries long after those original records, and buried in that archive was something with the exact same warmth. Type-303 picked it up and ran with it, turning a decades-old idea into something new. The rest of the record features ‘Paradise’ and ‘Morning (Ambient Mix)’, which both drift toward that dreamy, sun-bleached Italian sound that’s perfect this time of year.
