IN Guyana, we typically think of an artiste or musician as someone who sings, raps or plays an instrument. However, many times we find that artistes emerge, using unique talents that were otherwise ignored.
In the rising world of Electric Dance Music (EDM) in Guyana, DJ Zaud Jamal Inniss is one such person who brings refreshing change to the limitations of an artiste.
Jamal was born the March 22, 1992 in Georgetown and is an ‘only-child’. The South Ruimveldt resident attended School of the Nations then moved on to study Computer Science at the University of Guyana.
The 23-year-old admits to being into music all his life. He first started with a keen interest in hip-hop, but found that it wasn’t connecting to who he really was. “I am a person that appreciates an art form where you can paint the picture you want without it being dictated,” Jamal said.
That statement summed up the reason he eventually gravitated to EDM. According to Jamal, the music always gave him goose bumps whenever he heard it, and he felt that the genre allowed him to paint his own story. “EDM music is all about purity, love and respect for your fellow man, and having crazy fun with your friends and family,” he said.
Though Jamal has been performing as an EDM DJ for only four months, he has been turning heads wherever he plays. His most memorable performance came playing for a grand audience at Club Latino on December 18, 2015. He thought it was amazing to see the way persons appreciated his style, and quickly got hooked to playing the sweet bangers he himself liked. “My music and arrangements all come straight from the heart, and I only play music that I like and the crowd likes,” he said.
Within a few short months, Jamal has grown in popularity. This popularity and steady success he owes to the EDM Guyana family.
