SELECTED ALBUM REVIEWS
"A dynamic album with a collection of assorted rhythms that are ideal for a rave party in a disused factory where the guests are dressed as zombies." (Dangerous Nights by Sylvain Lupari for Synth and Sequences)
"Some elements remind me of the music by Bakis Sirros (Parallel Worlds), whose music I also really appreciate. On this album, Gustavo succeeds very well, to clearly reproduce the dark mood images in short pieces. Here, too, the listeners get their money's worth, who like to allow the mental cinema." (Deep Blue by Uwe Saße for Sequenzerwelten, translated by Google)
"Rio-Berlin ends this fascinating and surprising album (...) with short tracks that do not take anything away from the depth and musical visions of the Brazilian keyboardist." (Deep Blue by Sylvain Lupari for Synth and Sequences)
"Overall Deep Blue is a pleasure to listen to. I particularly enjoyed the variety of sounds and styles used on the tracks and how much they reminded me of my favorite movie soundtracks." (Deep Blue by Mobile Musician Magazine)
"(...) whatever mystic or secret rites performed to create such a brilliant piece in the initial self-titled album, still hold fast for this second entry. Mystica Visio II is a progressive exploration of Old School Dungeon Synth with a contemporary twist that not only keeps it fresh while being respectful of the content that it draws upon, but incorporates enough personality to not simply be a derivative of what it is trying to respectfully pay homage to." (Mystica Visio II by Aaron Michael Kobes for Cave Dweller Music)
"Jobim has come up with a bleak and oppressive score for what looks like an equally bleak and oppressive movie, with the music focusing on the use of unforgiving and somewhat aggressive electronics." (Os Príncipes by Reel Music)
"With a glance at the cover you can already guess the music genre a little, because here it is very experimental and mystical to the point. (...) Portal Between Two Worlds also owns a very high soundtrack potential. Here you can hear the experience from many music projects that Gustavo has worked on so far." (Portal Between Two Worlds by Uwe Saße for Sequenzerwelten, translated by Google)
"I am always curious about Gustavo Jobim's works and he did not disappoint me on Portal Between Two Worlds. His universe is always complex, between dark ambient and abstract music, while showing a depth that gradually ameliorates a possible reluctance to his particular style." (Portal Between Two Worlds by Sylvain Lupari for Synth and Sequences)
"A grim journey down an endless, morbid path that is more psychological thriller than horror. The music is deep, emotional, beautifully desolate and of course, Dungeon Synth! I also consider it one of my Album Of The Year contenders – yes, it’s that good." (Mystica Visio I by The Dungeon in Deep Space)
"AMAZING album, amazing synth-work, and amazing this and that. A perfect balance between a storytelling-soundtrack and pure talented musicality." (Mystica Visio I by Kalteldur)
"When inspiration falls into place you are in for some enticingly beautiful passages or some very nostalgic combination between retro synth POP sounds transfigured by Jobim´s understanding of the Berlin school´s system and his personal influences." (Meio-Dia by admireArt for ProgArchives)
"Audacious and musical, the two extremes live without superficiality in this fascinating album which meets all challenges in order to have a special place among the most beautiful albums of experimental EM and without borders in 2017." (Meio-Dia by Sylvain Lupari for Synth and Sequences)
"Meio-Dia is a good middle ground for newcomers - light retro touches that call to mind the vintage prog-electronic masters but given a unique sampling of Gustavo's own personality. It also runs a welcome vinyl length (someone PLEASE release this on vinyl!) (...) it easily makes a case for being one of the most striking electronic releases of 2017. 4 of 5 stars." (Meio-Dia by Aussie-Byrd-Brother for ProgArchives)
"The shadow is oblong and rises quietly to our earlobe to infiltrate our hearing that seeks to escape this barbaric invasion. I like Gustavo Jobim. He is an honest artist who makes no compromises and who offers us surprises... " (Inverno 2 by Sylvain Lupari for Synth and Sequences)
"This is Jobim's second Winter, but his work deserves to see more sunlight and to reach people's ears." (Inverno 2 by Fernando Lopes for Floga-Se)
"Inverno is one monster of an album" (Inverno by Artemi Pugachov for Encyclopedia of Electronic Music)
"Find the Iceland in your soul to listen to this. It's quality ambient music" (Inverno by Fernando Lopes for Floga-Se)
"It's an album intensely black, immersive, where the tones challenge constantly the ears." (Tsunami by Sylvain Lupari for Synth and Sequences)
"Maybe this is a kind of music that lives within our fear." (Tsunami by Anthem Albums)
"A factory of useless noises! 2 of 5 stars." (Underground by admireArt for ProgArchives)
"Masterful! Two minds with inherently different electronic music, direct and indIrect, influences, focuses and approaches, converge in perfect balance to become a new entity withholding their best songwriting attributes and pushing each one's best creative talents. 5 of 5 stars." (Hochofen by admireArt for ProgArchives)
"To sum it up, cosmic, industrial, slow and fast, alien environments, with the precise splashes and doses of pure and manipulated electronic noise, original in its progressive/electronic songwriting, but also sparing time for a beautiful moment of acoustic piano meditation (track 8). 4 of 5 stars." (Retrospect 2013 by admireArt for ProgArchives)
"Nocturnes is an excellent listening for those reflective moments. Turn the lights out, sit back, relax and just let yourself be taken away by the music. (Nocturnes by Artemi Pugachov for Encyclopedia of Electronic Music)
"The atmospheres are enveloping. It's like reading an old story of Edgar Allan Poe." (Manifesto by Sylvain Lupari for Synth and Sequences)
"Think of Klaus Schulze or Tangerine Dream, but even more intense." (Manifesto by Na Mira do Groove)
Poetic, dynamic (even dramatic), non stop creative, free of foreign nuisances, Jobim sounds true to the bone and in undertaking such a "pretentious" task he does it with grace and yes, lots of humbleness! 4 of 5 stars. (In Search Of Berlin by admireArt for ProgArchives)
"I especially like the sense of drama and gloominess (...) nice and pleasing job." (In Search Of Berlin by Bert Strolenberg for Sonic Immersion)
"It has a strong psychedelic, hallucinogenic and profound veil over it." (Trapped In A Day Job by Bert Strolenberg for Sonic Immersion)
"This is how Cluster could have sounded after the 70s if they had had a little more confidence and a nicer touch of the zeitgeist. Gustavo can make his machine fly and he takes it to some weird places." (Trapped in a Day Job by Ned Netherwood for Was Ist Das?)
"This is a work that will open the doors to electronic music in Brazil" (Round Mi by Cesar Lanzarini for Rock Progressivo Brasil)
"Round Mi is a unique and excellent take on Berlin school from Brazil" (Round Mi by Electroambient Space)
