3 QUESTIONS to GUY J: Q: Thanks for being part of our series. Talking about your mix: What do these tracks mean to you and how did you get in touch with electronic music once? A: Thank you for having me! It made me feel great doing this mix, it took me back in time and made me realize how lucky I am to grow up with this music around me. Everything was beautiful, everything was made with passion. While it was hard to post 10-15 years of influence in 1 hour, I just went with what I felt like at the moment of making the mix. I was growing up with the radio turned on all the time at home, and was exposed to different kind of music and I think Electronic Music for me was what I wanted to do, but the feeling of what music can transit is what I learned from listening to all genres of music. I feel blessed to grow with music that will be timeless. Q: During Corona the world has changed a lot, especially for everyone of us being in the music and event industry. How did you spend your time? A: I went through a process during this time and still going through that process. It started with kind of ‘hype’, not necessary positive, but excitement of a change. And I thought to my self 'OK, it's a great opportunity to work on music and spend time at home’ but then the touring was missing and with that also the inspiration was missing, so frustration came along as I’m used to working a lot on music. After that, realization came and I understand that this is what it is and there is nothing to do about it and appreciate that my surrounding are healthy and make the best out of being at home. It might take time to get back to how it used to be for the music and event industry, but it will get there, and we will miss being at home and this slow rhythm. Q: Which fresh and hot projects are you currently working, so what's coming next? A: I have my on release coming out on Lost & Found called “Beast Of Sea / Catfish” which will be on digital and vinyl. And the vinyl is going to include another track limited to the vinyl release.
