obviously the man was a little off while in canada. thats too bad. makes
me wonder if the guy was sick or something.. who knows? yikes, he's sure
getting reemed here tho..
i don't attempt to make excuses for him, but in my opinion vadim has strong
abilities as a dj. the last time he was in sf, i was impressed by what he
spun.. definitely a listening set, not so much a dancing set.. (by the
club standards).. but definitely still in the phat category..
and if he was off then he was off and he was having a bad night. each to
his own opinion.. obviously.

since when has vadim declared himself "acid jazz"?
everything on ninja tune has more of a hip hop slant to it than acid jazz.
imho, vadim falls more into the experimental hip hop category along with
shadow.
