yep parabolas is production genius (at least the first half anyway), one of
those albums that seems like a lot of nothing at first but grows and grows
with complexity with each listen.

defo that you're biased! haven't got around to that album yet, but, on
kent williams' recommendation to the list, i did get the single,
unstable condition. think i liked the b side more - nice melancholic
touch to it.

I couldn't possibly disagree with this more.

His most recent "Parabolas" (Kompakt) from last year was pretty much my 
favorite record of last year.

I get the Plaid comparisons but I see them as just influences and his stuff is 
far, far more interesting to me than whatever Plaid are doing nowadays (if

News of any reissue of 7th City stuff makes me happy.  Joe Babylon and 
myself had a wonderful time digging through the piles at 7th City 
distribution during the Metroplex 10th anniversary do. I still play 
tracks form the stuff I bought there , as well as from binges at 
Submerge and Record Time. The X-ray signature of the record boxes at the 
airport caused some raised eyebrows from the security gal at the 
scanner. As soon as I told her they were records, she was cool. Mine was 
probably nowhere near the largest stash through the scanner that week.

the guy produces so much and a lot of it did sound so similar that it
was hard to differentiate between releases. just think the stuff on
7th city stood out more. 7th city seems like a mythical label now.
remember walking into a now long defunct record store in dublin and
they had a dj set-up and the guy was playing a track off his 2nd 12"
on 7th city. walked straight up to the counter and said i'll have one
of those, please.

 but you've reminded me of a lot of other stuff that he put out. like
on mosaic (which i have somewhere).

also, his album and releases on (de)focus with the divine styler
rhyming and his mother (that right?) singing on them.

Could you really like it that much if you thought it was a blatant
Plaid rip-off?

Maybe I'm quibbling over definitions, but 'blatant rip-off' implies
that it isn't as good as the original.  If it's good, it's good, and
any stylistic similarities are irrelevant to its quality.

In a certain respect everything is a rip off of everything.  "Shades
of Jae" rips off Bob James.

& listening right now to Daydreams In Cold Weather, I can hear the
Plaid similarity, but Tejada is more straightforward rhythmically, and
where Plaid makes melodic puzzle-palaces using random processes,
Tejada seems to use more intentional composing.

There are Tejada tracks that are indelibly awesome and classic. Then
there's the rest of his work, which is almost that good.  I don't
think he's released anything that's actually bad. Some are less
memorable, less arrestingly original, but you could play a whole set
of his B- and C-list stuff and it would work.

But then that's the great thing about there being a bazillion new
tracks being released every year. If you just skim the top 0.05% thats
still hundreds of new tracks to choose from.

And I'm resigned to be in the 99%.  I'll get there some day.

didn't know this was happening - makes very happy. tejada's best
stuff. as far as i'm concerned, the only releases you need from his
back catalogue (except for his album on A13 and 'A Fading Memory' off
the Toiling of Idle Hands' album on Immigrant).
