Lola’s World Records, the label embracing global beats with a multicultural perspective, releases a new thematic double CD album featuring the city of İstanbul, a metropolis that stands astride two continents: Europe and Asia. The album titled “I LOVE İSTANBUL” is the new work of art compiled by DJ Gülbahar Kültür, the outstanding DJ of the World Music genre. Originally from İstanbul and having lived in this totally inspiring, multi ethnic city for the first 14 years of her life, DJ Gülbahar Kültür presents the 21st century İstanbul sounds, as a tribute to her hometown, which is on her agenda even when she ‘s far away. The spirit of İstanbul reflected in the album features vibrant sounds of a metropolis facing the future, with a good deal of history behind. A genuine collection of the urban sounds of İstanbul presenting 31 tracks in total, “I Love İstanbul” is composed brilliantly for a hot dance party. The first CD titled “FOR LOVERS” is made up of tracks of love at İstanbul scale; tempting and magnificent. Performers are prominent names, acclaimed by a wide-ranging audience and well respected by World Music, Pop, Electronic and Traditional Music communities, some of which are: MERCAN DEDE (aka Arkin Allen) who has a singular presence in World Music with an impressive discography, playing a fusion of Turkish, Oriental music and electronic sounds with an accentuation on Sufi tones; BURHAN ÖÇAL, recognized worldwide as a virtuosic percussionist specializing in a variety of percussion instruments, interested in combining many genres and cultural traditions such as Free Funk Jazz and Classical Music, with his own; ORIENT EXPRESSIONS, the celebrated trio performing an electrophonic synthesis of Turkish Folk and instrumental forms to render a well-integrated sound that moves through polyharmonic jazzy vibes and traditional percussion-laden grooves; MIZAN, the collective of a totally cosmopolitan attitude that defines its music as one that links the heart of Europe with the edge of Asia and DENİZ GÜNGÖR the creator of a totally new concept in drumming and the inventor of Aqua Drums. Other radiant artists and groups included in the CD are BAM SESSION, SİNAN MERCENK, NADA, BURAK DEMİR, dZIHAN & KAMIEN, HIDIR AKYÜZ feat. DENİZ GÖÇMEN, DJ COSLOW, SUAT ATEŞDAĞLI feat. ATLAS, MURAT SES, DJ TARKAN & SOUL TAN and ZARA TAYLOR. Second CD of the album named “FOR DANCERS” is simply a “shake it up” compilation of non-stop dance, with hit songs from: DJ KAAN GÖKMAN, ÖZHAN ÖZAL feat. SUDENUR, ATİYE, CÜNEYT ÇAKIM feat. GENTA İSMAİLİ, DIANA BIRZU feat. MR. LEVY, TANSİYON SEQUENZ, BON MOD, MERDAN TAPLAK, RAMADAN!, SULTAN TUNÇ feat. ÖZAY FECHT, DJ TEKİN feat. CHAPELL, BÜLENT BILLIE DEE, SERDAR ÖRS & ERİC YEDİM, JEAN CLAUDE ADES feat. MELİH ASK, KİRPİ and DJ SELİM. “I LOVE İSTANBUL”, is surely a great way to give in to the charms of this intoxicating city that has a privileged position among the metropolises of the globe due to its geographical location and its cultural heritage of thousands of years and particularly, its young and energetic population that generates an utterly creative power to make İstanbul one of the most dynamic, hip cities across the world.
