since buying a sampler in 1992 vadim has been delivering the pain to the rest of the world from his home base in russia. whether its his releases on his own jazz fudge label or any of his releases on ninja tune you just know you'll be getting some of the freshest beats. to bump up his presence on tour he started his own band 'the russian percussion' and performs as such occasionally when he's not doing straight up dj tours. make sure you check him if you see a night advertised in your town.
