Istanbul City Guide with Gadi Mitrani

Pablo Bolivar’s Spanish imprint Seven Villas welcomes Gadi Mitrani for a fantastic compilation titled Gadi Mitrani Plays Seven Villas that shows off the label’s deep and organic take on electronic music. It features 19 tracks, all previously released on the label, mixed masterfully together in 70 minutes, in a seamless and seductive fashion.

Turkey’s Gadi Mitrani has released on the likes of Galaktika Records, Tale&Tone and Kompakt—as well as this label—since 2015. His signature sound is deep and patient, progressive and melodic, and so he is a perfect artist to represent this label’s best musical offerings.
