Returning to Kompakt after his stunning solo album Signs Under Test (2015) (KOM 321LP, KOMP 119CD) - already his third full length with the label, John Tejada, the LA-based artist, presents his latest concoction Lakewood Drive. It's a sturdy, spirited EP showcasing Tejada's admired brand of energetic, melodic minimalism, packed to the brim with three expertly crafted cuts confidently commanding dance floors. His predilection for sophisticated, playful bangers is very much intact, making this another hugely successful foray into the realm of hot-wired synth machinery and glistening beats.
