 CLUAS Indie Gig Reviews: DJ Vadim live in Dublin
We await the return of DJ Vadim, the Russian-born, London-based producer, label owner, hip-hop fan and record collector.
Vadim's last Dublin show (at the Temple Bar Music Centre in October) saw an enthusiastic if sparse crowd go ten rounds in the hip-hop ring as Vadim delivered blow after body blow of classic and soon-to-be-essential cuts.
While from the outset it's clear that Vadim is intent on quickly getting down to the serious business of having a good time, it is instantly apparent that preconceptions will not be tolerated and the only option is to surrender to his unique vision of dancefloor mayhem.

The first thing you notice on visiting DJ Vadim's west London studio is the number of records in it.
Vadim's home studio is certainly well suited for his purposes, but as he freely admits, it doesn't compare with the luxurious facilities available to top American hip-hop acts.
It's clear that DJ Vadim thrives on this freshness and diversity, and on the never-ending quest for originality: "I travel round the world looking for breaks and stuff; I go to record fairs and travel round Europe and America just going record shopping, finding rare rock breaks and drum breaks and so on.

 Jambalaya: Concerts
Although Vadim was fairly quiet, he was the first DJ in the night to engage the crowd; and those on the floor responded with enthusiasm.
Vadim seemed content to operate as the musical backbone, allowing First Rate to perform the flashiest turntable work and Yarah to hold court as the prime focal point.
While I still think that I was correct to believe that a pure DJ set would not have captivated me, the combination of Vadim's musical vision, First Rate's undeniable skills, and Yarah Bravo's flawless vocals added to a fantastic show.

 Low-Life | UK Hip Hop Story | DJ Vadim - Stereo Pictures Vol. 03 LP [mk2 Music / Jazz Fudge]
DJ Vadim has produced a somewhat left field mix CD as you might expect from him.
Some abstract sounds are delivered by jazz flavoured DJ Food and for real surrealism to who else would you turn, but Manchester's Mr Scruff who gets real mental for Shanty Town which has all sorts of sea shanties in there and tales about whales and the like.
As I mentioned this is not a showcase of DJ skills although Vadim does drop some scratches his additions are the vocal drops and some fiddling with the EQ.

In 1992, Vadim Peare bought a sampler and started working on the music that would become "Abstract Hallucinating Gases" and "Headz Ain't Ready" (both released on his own label, Jazz Fudge).
In 1999 there was the abstract funk collaboration LP, "The Isolationist," produced by Vadim, scratched by DJ Primecuts and vocalled by New York avant-rappers Antipop Consortium (now signed to Warp).

Themes are stared off by Vadim, but quickly chopped off as he moves on to another idea only for the original idea to be re-visited later on.

 USSR:Life From The Other Side, MP3 Album Music Download at eMusic
DJ Vadim's debut introduced one of the world's best producers in abstract underground rap, a minimalist hip-hopper able to weave a funky break around the slightest piece of noise detritus.
Whereas with his first album Vadim worked on a miniature scale, constructing breaks and beats out of abstract noise, here the sound is more upfront and swaggering, much closer to the commercial rap world than before.

 RA: Resident Advisor - DJ Vadim and One Self (live) - Melbourne Event   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-29)
Although his solo albums have tended to feature numerous vocalists, Vadim had yearned to work in depth with a core group of no more than two MCs, preferably a pair whose deliveries and sensibilities would both mesh and spark.
For his part, Vadim is convinced One Self couldn't have happened had he not made the move in 2003 from leafy suburbia to the inner city, and built the studio where the One Self album, Children of Possibility, was recorded.
Echoing Vadim's own hope that listeners will hear the record first and foremost as "a hip hop album, but also a very musical album", Yarah believes One Self transcend hip hop's parochial preoccupations and emphasise its global reach.

The problem is it's not an album, it's some of Vadim's friends who rap, while he makes the beats.

Recommended to all true Vadim junkies, as well as other not that familiar with Vadim's outstanding work on the Ninja Tune label.
Whereas Vadim's debut LP is very experimental, focussing less on beats than sounds, this album contains beats throughout, with audio experimentation as more of a garnish.
