In addition to producing electronic music as Gifted & Blessed since the early 2000s, Gabriel Reyes-Whittaker has dabbled with many other aliases over the years: as Frankie Reyes, he explores his Puerto Rican heritage by playing Latin standards and originals on vintage keyboard instruments; as The Abstract Eye and The Reflektor, he creates dancefloor anthems with electronic hardware; and as GB and Julian Abelar he’s released sample-based productions and techno-adjacent dance music. An instrumental founding member of the L.A. beat scene and an original performer at Low End Theory, he’s also produced for and collaborated with artists including Kelela, Ras G, Steve Arrington, Steve Spacek, J*Davey, Sa-ra Creative Partners, Dwight Trible and more.
