For Jayda G, joy is a state of mind. Whether she transmits itthrough her upbeat productions or magnetic energy at thedecks, the Canadian-born DJ and producer, real nameJayda Guy, is a beacon of empathy on the dancefloor.
It's no surprise, then, that Jayda G's DJ-Kicks mix, releasingon 14 May, captures the buoyant spirit of the music that hasinfluenced her most. "DJ-Kicks has been a personal goal ofmine for a really long time. I've been a fan for decades now. I remember there was one mix by Chromeo and it had someFrench disco on it that always stood out in my mind," sheremembers. Clocking in at just over an hour, Guy's mixtakes you on a journey that moves through loved classicsand new bubblers.
The mix contains Jayda's Brand new single "All I Need", thefollow up to Grammy Nominated breakthrough single"Both Of Us", a slinky house tune co-produced with JamesFord that fizzes with shimmering energy. A rallying cry forkinship and understanding, Guy's insouciant vocals insist"all I need is you to hear me", gliding across the perfectlyswung house beat. "Because the mix was made during thepandemic, I thought, 'What music makes me happy?' I wantpeople to feel like they know me. I wanted it to beapproachable, still honouring the disco and soul music thatI love. I hope that translates in some shape or form."
