TXLAX is Dave Aju's first album since 2015. As always, there is plenty of fresh genre-defying ideas in the music, but this time wrapped in a much more relaxed and focused aesthetic -- a fitting personal soundtrack for the homecoming theme of his move back to Los Angeles from Berlin, as the combined airport letters in the title suggest. There is a sonic stylistic bridge of sorts between the sister cities on display as well, all imbued with that inimitable combination of raw playfulness and warm refined soul as only Dave Aju does. From the soaring west coast future funk opener "Bird's Eye", the nautical disco-not-disco of tomorrow in "Out To C" and the bugged-out broken beat flavor of "Silverfish" to the slick melodic electro vibes of the title track, and gorgeous shuffling deep house closer "Yulia", TXLAX is a masterwork filled with beauty, character, and detail that will reward many repeat listens.
