INTERVIEW:

NAME: James Vadner
AGE: 21
LOCATION: Minneapolis, Minnesota

FOR THOSE WHO MIGHT NOT BE FAMILIAR WITH YOUR SOUND/STYLE. HOW WOULD YOU DESCRIBE IT:
I guess my sound could be described as heavey basslines a real electro style to it, I do try to keep things different as each tune gets done, I am also working on a tune that is super chill and deep.
I am also recently working on a new tune that is chill and deep, with a lot of sub bass.

HOW DID YOU GET INTO DUBSTEP, AND WHAT MADE YOU WANT TO PRODUCE:
Awesome question, In 2008, I was booked to play at this campout like 2 hours south of Mpls, funny story this is the same exact way Alex Vaski got into dubstep as well, we were both there walking around from stage to stage, and seemed to keep ourselves at the Uncensored US stage.
our 2 friends KJ, and Dan Hack were playing dubstep and we heard the track Gangster by Babylon System & SPL, after that we both pretty much just fell in love with the genre, before we left we were also handed a dubstep mix by a DJ named Tinhead, and listened to that the whole way home.

After a few months I started buying tunes and playing them out, and moved from being a UK Hardcore DJ to a Dubstep DJ, at times I wanted to do both, but I kept only being booked for dubstep, in 2010 Alex (Vaski) and I started a collab called Party Foul, and that pretty much started me with producing my own dubstep, as of today I have been producing for about 9 Months.

WHATS YOUR CURRENT PRODUCTION SET UP:
FL Studio 9, a computer, and some crappy Philips brand speakers from a cd changer stereo, I also have a 12 inch sub that helps alot, yea its not much but it works for what I am pushing out now, soon I hope to get a nice midi keyboard, and some new monitors.

HOW DO YOU FEEL THE SCENE IS GOING, IS THERE ANYTHING MISSING, HOW WOULD YOU CHANGE IT:
Dubstep its self has really pushed itself into everything, there are producers like Rusko, Chase & Status producing for big acts like Rihanna, and Brittany Spears, at my age we remember Britney with pop music singing oops I did it again, and now she has a tune with a dubstep breakdown.

So really I think the scene is doing just great, people maybe mad that its going mainstream, but when it wasn’t I remember when people talked about wanting to make dubstep big, now it is, get used to it haha.

My thoughts on what is missing, nothing really anymore at a time when dubstep first blew up, that’s all that people wanted to hear, they would go to a rave just to hear it, I love all sorts of electronic music, and I love to keep seeing parties with all styles instead of just dubstep, and that’s would also I would change, to keep it fresh and keep peoples minds open, so usually in a set of mine you’ll never hear just a full hour of dubstep, you’ll hear some dutch house, dnb, hardcore, what ever i feel the crowd at the time will like.

LET US KNOW ABOUT YOUR FORTHCOMINGS, WHEN AND WHO WITH:
New EP releasing on Betamorph Recordings, no really set date yet, but will have some really sweet tunes, like Bomberman Fights Back, and Forcefeild, also a remix in the works by Cyberoptics, my ep will have a couple more tunes, but really don’t have any names for them yet.

SHOUT OUTS:
My future wife Ashley Merges, also probably known as the girl who says bass freq in my latest track, Nostalgia, Cyberoptics, Total Recall, Vaski, BARE, Bong, Mr.Re, Deej, Reid Speed, Johnny Foreplay, Hulk, Jessica, and also all my friends and fans who are supporting me
