I just got through listening to daydreams in cold weather by Tejada and it 
reminds me a lot of Larry Heard's work,  who's early stuff used to be called  
acid house.

[313] Sonar/John Tejada

2002-06-21 Thread Michael D Tyrer
Just noticed that @ #1 in the Groovetech Top20 is John TejadaArian
Leviste's 'Its Only Music'.

I thought John Tejada was one of the sets I enjoyed most at Sonar.  I am not
aware of having heard John play before but I'll certainly look out for him
in future.  The program described John as the most prestigous name in Tech
House.  Is that right?  What I heard him play at Sonar (and i dont know trax
to be able to name them) was not what i interpret as Tech-house.  I believe
John is a member of this board and would be interested to know what style he
thougth he played.  (Groovetech I noticed also describe his track as House,
Techno, Tech House).

Its rather lame for me to say that i also rated Richie's as one of the most
enjoyable as I'm a well known RH groupie!  Jeff Mills came on and played a
blinder, so I wasnt really expecting Richie to better it, particularly, as
of late, I've been disappointed with a lot of what Rich has played.  His
first 10 minutes or so were spent showing off the remixing potential of
Final Scratch, but from then he really rocked, and it was definately one of
the best sets I have heard from that man in the last couple of years.

I was also  impressed with Thomas Brinkman as Soul Centre and Fabrice Lig in
his Soul Designer guise who each played on either side of John Tejada.  (And
to think I nearly didnt go on the Friday night . a night, where I also
then got invited to another party to hear the end of a 7hr Sven Vath set,
with an exuberant RH partying alongside.. which really put the icing on my
visit to Sonar!).

I know there was a whole load of Basic Channel related talk recently, but
did anyone who went to Sonar see them play live at Moog last Friday night?

It would be nice if some of you who went to Sonar wrote up some
reviews.especially of Tejada's set! ;)

This is also cuz it seems the list has quietened down a little

Maybe this is on a tangent, but what exactly would people consider to be
tech-house anyway?  My personal impression of Tejada at DEMF was that his sound
would fall under that label, this has always been a curious term however.  I
would be interested to know what sound Mr. Tyreer would consider to be
tech-house as opposed to John Tejada's sound, for example.  I know there may be
some issues with the term tech-house being used rather loosely by certain DJs in
the UK that I'm not fully aware of here in the state.  In one way, it seems like
a lot of Detroit techno records could actually be called tech-house as they do
fall somewhere in between techno (esp. in the fullon banging sense of the term)
and house.

I can't get an idea of the definition of tech-house from the CD's  I've 
purchased with the words tech-house on the cover. 

At first,  I thought tech-house  was a combination of house - a music 
based on a vocal form and  techno  - sort of a  through-composed form or 
spinning out.  But that didn't come through the listening.
