Normally associated with his peers in Techno from Detroit, Europe and elsewhere in the US and the world, John Tejada has embraced Drum and Bass as a new personal frontier, expanding on his formidable resume as a Techno recording artist--as producer and remixer, DJ, and label owner. With dozens of singles, remixes, some film and TV work and contributions to sample CDs to his credit, this recent expansion has born a slew of tracks deeply informed by his uncompromised aesthetic--honed over years of diligent production--which finds its roots in Detroit Techno but references a far broader range of music, both in and outside of electronic music. His musically formative years were steeped in Classical music, growing up in family of performing artists--his mother a soprano singer and his father a conductor--which then widened to include hip hop, DJing and finally, electronic music.
Known for crafting a brand of subtle, musical techno, his recorded output ranges across tempo and genre lines, from chilled out affairs with spacious arrangements to pulsating, densely layered, deeply energetic tracks that work magnificently in the hands of DJs as well as on the home stereo. Earlier on, his music found release on labels such as A13, Multiplex and Generation R&S. Following on to those successes, he established his own imprint, Palette, in Los Angeles, in 1996, and has enjoyed six years of steady growth and recognition. The label has served as an exclusive outlet for his own prodigious output but has recently begun to expand its roster. He has also continued to record for other labels such as Plug Research, Seventh City, Moods and Grooves, deFocus, Sino and others, often in collaboration with 11 year long collaborator Arian Leviste, and alongside these numerous singles, has also produced six albums; two for A13, and one each for deFocus, Plug Research, Moods and Grooves and Palette.
Much as Palette has begun to sign disaffected Drum and Bass artists looking farther afield, so have his personal forays into Drum and Bass mirrored this. Both independently and in collaboration--with artists such as Polar, Klute, UFO!, Sage and others--his work at the upper echelons of speed and breaks have won quick attention from various corners of the Drum and Bass community, with signings to Commercial Suicide, Socio, Violence, Krush Grooves, Metaformal, and Sonikore.
