DJ Vadim - U Can't Lurn Imaginashun
(CD) Barely Breaking Even (BBE), 2009-05-11
"If you want to make beautiful music, you must play the black and the white notes together." [Richard M. Nixon]
Not many - if any - musical biographies open with quotations from Richard M. Nixon. But DJ Vadim, a.k.a. the John Coltrane of hip hop, ain't exactly your average 'round-the-way' producer. A veteran traveller and quality purveyor of head-nodding beats, Vadim has 4 solo albums, 2 group albums (One Self; The Isolationist), a remix album, countless mix tapes/CDs, EPs, remixes plus a slew of 12s and 7s under his heavyweight belt. Needless to say, though producer/DJ's these days are a dime-a-dozen, a veteran like Vadim is not the kind o' cat to release 12 tracks of the latest in-vogue soul loop. In fact his new album, "U Can't Lurn Imaginashun" is one of the sickest joints on the block, continuing - and embellishing - the producer's inventive journey into the realm of sound. Anyone that knows anything about Vadim knows to expect the unexpected, and "UCLI" has surprises - and dopeness - in abundance.
