I rarely participate in these 313 food fights, but the comment below is one of the most self-indulgent and indeed laughable ones seen here in a long, long time.
It certainly doesn't portray John Tejada in any fashion relating to, you know, reality. John's work as a DJ and producer stands on its own merits and most will agree with me that he's one of the best we've got out there in the electronic music world.

'Nuff said. he's not a trendy producer? thats laughable. his entire career has been built off of associating himself with whatever genre/style is popular at the time! he's never had a signature sound because his signature sound is ripping off other artists. he can appeal to the 500 hipster morons in attendance all he wants, it doesnt make his music any better or more original. and we're all really impressed that you know tejada by the way, thanks for letting us in on that! when you have your buddy redshift agreeing with you, its not a good day for the common sense of your argument. tom
