Ask The Producer: John Tejada (Electronic Beats TV)

[@CoreyHague]

The best thing on KZbin, bar none. Please keep these coming, the world needs more of it.

[@TheCALMInstitute]

I always appreciate John's perspective - he's so low-ego, low-drama, a great contrast to a lot of musicians.

[@urir.7126]

Funny that Tejada would describe his tracks with a 'keep it simple' - his stuff often contains surprising elements / progressions, and is quite clever.. A humble guy - short and to the point - thanks a bunch for this video !

[@markfontane1298]

I love that he chooses his words carefully. What a great guy.

[@andresdelbosque5006]

More than a few of your choons have resonated John - what a lovely humble talent. Keep enjoying playing with the toys!!!

[@chrischain_]

Seems like a super humble guy. Nice to hear from someone who's been at it for so long.

[@robinsharepointblog]

Thank you Electronic Beats and John, this is so cool (no flashy edits, just a proper long interview/monologue of our heroes)

[@dwolf9507]

Your music is an inspiration to many, awesome to hear the legend in the flesh. Thanks for the well articulated insight and amazing tracks John!

[@davidwatson5451]

Seeing John Tejada wearing one of the Stem Sell hoodies I designed has made my day

[@ritec]

A genuine soul, I love John Tejada.

[@shannonaston250]

What a lovely man. CA pride!

[@lightningdb]

Hey, really glad you've added the questions read out! I often listen and half watch these and it was always confusing trying to understand what previous participants were talking about (was constantly re-winding to read the question when it appeared on screen). It's a little thing but made this MUCH easier to follow. Thank you!

[@ElectronicBeatsTV]

We are just listening 😉

[@dashbad]

What a thoroughly nice chap! Some belting tunes over the years too.

[@DangerousPOSSE]

who would dislike this??? best video i've ever seen, Love you John!

[@futureskeletons66669]

I love John's clinical, pristine sounding productions.

[@theDgrader]

John is absolutely 100% pure. No BS

[@schipbreukeling]

thanks, what a inspirational vid. One burning question on 6:00 he mentions he makes playlists of tracks that gives him goosebumps? I wanna listen to those!

[@andresdelbosque5006]

Yep, me too! Please share these

[@DarkoAudio]

Nice Plaid push 👍

[@munimum]

That was the first thing I've noticed when watched the video! :) Funny thing that I am watching Your channel sometimes and from what I could see, You really appreciate artists like Tejada, Plaid,Orbital etc....So it made me smiling when I read the first comment under this video, which was Yours and which was about the Plaid push! :)...P.S.Stem Sell is so inspiring!

[@benlawrence4096]

That first question, and Johns answer are so important.

[@ShineRecordings]

thanks Telekom Electronic Beats for such contents

[@xiphiuz]

Great - was looking forward to this - One of the best comments/answers of John I found - "Gear can definately inspire but can also paralyze" - I know this feeling and teach this my students as well. Be chill and feel blessed that you have the gear in front of you and give it time...

[@ElectronicBeatsTV]

Well said!

[@xiphiuz]

I now see my question being answered. Thank you very much maestro Tejada! - Indeed the Ones and especially the cool wooden 1-cones auratone clones(?) - Did not know you had ATC's. Amazing stuff

[@xiphiuz]

@@ElectronicBeatsTV thanks 😎

[@obey_is_not_my_thing]

[@Makebelieve123]

Great interview John. You always touch on the most important aspects New or old

[@flamegrylls8965]

I think this was the nicest one of these so far

[@phfrixion]

Palette Allstar(s)! Great episode...

[@JacobPadlock]

Just saw him play at III Points and like god damn that set was sick. So smooth and groovy.

[@colinblumer7751]

indeed!

[@PinchHarmonic69]

Same! Came in about 1/3rd in. He was playing a funky acid track.

[@jareknowak8712]

LEGEND! 👍

[@Kablehead]

Great one! Thank you.

[@zeusdeux]

Good to see this legend finally on ATP! Great content folks! Immer her damit! :D

[@andresdelbosque5006]

Can you please share the history of electronic music playlists John? (Por favor!!!)

[@lafoudrepasslafoudrepass5238]

🙂🙏 I needed this

[@steadyrest]

is this the same john tejeda that made farther and fainter? wow

[@sebas11tian]

Very same one. Parabolas is easily still my favourite album after 10y

[@djkiti7007]

Legend!

[@SilverSnark]

I have the same plaid jumper but light blue

[@ElectronicBeatsTV]

Congrats 😃

[@sebp400]

you should do a profile on Air Liquide. How come we never hear of them? they're legends!

[@ElectronicBeatsTV]

Cause they don't exist anymore?

[@chasedestroy]

who? you mean legends???

[@sammyf.3076]

[@andresdelbosque5006]

...with you on the 90s Drum & Bass :-))

[@jareknowak8712]

❤ Father and Fainter! ❤ Faux Obsolete!

[@ataqueparoxistico]

I saw the video thumbnail and thought it was actually John Secada for like 10 seconds straight.

[@soroushzand2426]

Would be amazing if you could add timestamps for each question

[@jaycos5978]

Can you bring back tech talk @Telekom Electronic Beats?

[@ElectronicBeatsTV]

We just released one 4 weeks ago

[@newtonez]

Can we have a few songs on the playlists you give your students 🤲

[@moritzfederlein438]

💣

[@sinesoundmukke4359]

One question regarding VU metering John, do you have experience with the tc electronic Clarity M stereo? Maybe you can be so nice and give a hint what VU metering tool (soft or hardware) do you use. Bests, Marc

[@thegroove2000]

A tip. Listen to music. Lots of it.

[@thegroove2000]

Chasing that high. Its like crack.

[@hanshandkante5055]

I loved his old stuff on Seventh City, Palette etc but since 15 years he releases nothing but crap. I have given up on him. His newer stuff sounds like something is shitting into my ears. I hate it when electronic musicians get "functional" and start making club bangers so they get more bookings. Good electronic music these days is only coming from people who don't have to make a living out of it. He is a talented guy but at some point in his career he made the choice not to be an artist anymore but instead become a service provider like a wedding DJ. Sad but true, but his recent stuff is as soulless and generic as it gets.
