The beloved DJ VADIM returns with a brand new project
With a career marked by critical acclaim and a hardcore following, DJ Vadim could have continued to work as a producer with whomever he liked the cream of MC talent from around the globe. As one of the few producers to straddle the divide between independent hip hop and more leftfield instrumental music, he could have stayed in the comfort zone.
But this time out he decided to gather his closest musical collaborators together with him to create a true group ethic and radically freshen up his approach in the process. The results are sensational, a revelation
Both SwedishBrazilian YARAH BRAVO and American BLU RUM 13 have been long term Vadim associates but have also rhymed with everyone from TTC to CANIBUS to LUKE VIBERT to KID KOALA. Their voices, placed together for the first time, mesh into a lyrical, melodic blend which summons up memories of the best of NATIVE TONGUES updated for a new century Blu Rums gruff, musical growl the ideal foil for Yarahs sweet, octavehopping, spoken word stylings.
The effect of working with two so wellmatched vocalists seems to have refreshed Vadims approach, a real sense of sunshine permeating a record which still punches its weight in terms of stylistic innovation and experimentation.
Vadim flexes his class skills with ease, skipping through a world of grooves; unstitched rocksteady, street soul, sly hip hop and political funk. This is a true unit working together to open up new possibilities. As cerebral as it is soulful.
