Gedida
''Gedida'' (Arabic: جديدة , English: New) is the third album by Belgian singer Natacha Atlas. It was released by Mantra Records in 1999. In the Middle East, the album was released under the title ''Guzouri'', with an alternate track listing. The album sold around 40,000 copies in France, where "Mon amie la rose" was a top 20 hit. Critical reception ''The Encyclopedia of Popular Music'' called the album "a confident mix of traditional Arabic and contemporary Western dance influences, seamlessly blended together." ''The Village Voice'' wrote that though Atlas "pulls styles in from everywhere—reggae bass, British dance beats, European orchestrations—the music is held together by her singing, which is Arab to its core." '' CMJ New Music Monthly'' called Atlas's voice "limber and evocative."

Electronica
Electronica is both a broad group of electronic-based music styles intended for listening rather than strictly for dancing and a music scene that started in the early 1990s in the United Kingdom. In the United States, the term is mostly used to refer to electronic music generally. History Early 1990s: origins and UK scene The original wide-spread use of the term "electronica" derives from the influential English experimental techno label New Electronica, which was one of the leading forces of the early 1990s introducing and supporting dance-based electronic music oriented towards home listening rather than dance-floor play, although the word "electronica" had already begun to be associated with synthesizer generated music as early as 1983, when a "UK Electronica Festival" was first held. At that time electronica became known as "electronic listening music", also becoming more or less synonymous to ambient techno and intelligent techno, and was considered distinct from other em ...
