Discovered this producer recently and from what I've heard, some very good music but still have a long way to go.

Dust and Bianca are so so, havent heard anything that good really since Lunar and Lamur......

excellent producer! one of my top 10 favs. i hope to scope out his djing ability at the beginning of september when he comes to the Avalon in LA.

I dont agree that he has a long way to go in terms of producing. His production skills are far better than 99.9% of the "big names" out there today. I think someone else mentioned his mixdown ability in this thread but in terms of complexity and the layering of sounds, he is streets ahead of almost everyone.

"Bianca" for example has so many subtle melodic layers in it. He has a unique ability of incorporating so many different melodies and sounds that combine to create almost a single melody, yet allow the listener to still be able to distinguish each sound. There are very few producers who can mingle so many melodies and layers without making the track sound clustered or muddy.

Fair enough, the sound is a very specialised style of prog and therefore will never be a sound that appeals to the masses. He is unlikely to have any massive "hits" but I think purely on a technical level, he is definately one of the top dance producers in the world.

Beauty is in the ear of the beholder

Seems to me that good productions by Guy J come effortlessly, the layering and clarity always sound very 'next level' to me. I think his productions are not going to get old quickly, and we've a lot more to hear from him.

Played a fantastic set at Global Gathering in the UK (well, one of the only few worth listening to), perfect progression towards driving bliss... And then Sander ****ing Kleinenberg abruptly played some crock of shit with Missy Elliot spittin' over it.

Couldn't agree more. He's up there with Dousk and Pole Folder as a producer imo.

Now that i think about it, has he done any collaboration with pole Folder or have they remixed each other as of yet? That would be very interesting to say the least.

not really known with his productions, but I did hear him play at the Tomorrowland festival here in Belgium. He played 1h30; first hour was ok, but I thought especially his last half hour was really good. He didn't really got much reaction from the crowd though
