In this growing age of electronic music, distinguishing the different genres and sub-genres of music is indeed an arduous chore. But because curiosity is the wick in the candle of learning, I, out of no good reason, flared my curiosity to explore Guy J’s style of narrating house music to his audience.
In course of time, I noticed another passionate heart (Debjit Kar), balancing beats with his musical notes. His eyes would fill with fanatic warmth every time he talks about his favorite Guy J. When asked about his zaniness, Debjit narrated how Guy J’s technique to create music attracted him. “He doesn’t stick around to a single genre, rather infuses numerous other genres to create a different style. He can make you smile, cry, and dance with his music,” he said.
