MU | Vlada, O.BEE

Vlada, the rising Moscow-born DJ was trained on the piano from the age of just six. She has been traveling the world and playing records since she turned 18. Much of this is down to her father, an avid collector of jazz and funk melodies himself whose love for music inspired his daughter's affection for vinyl aesthetics and digging. Her time today is split between Berlin and Moscow, and she continues to hold a residency in the latter city's Arma17 nightclub. In addition to this, she also manages the curation of The Volks parties as co-founder. Sonically speaking, she offers the hypnotic bass lines and long mixing style so commonly associated with Eastern Europe, however it is evident from any of her sets that she is steadily creating an independent pattern though influencing the style of her own. Laced with a fine array of eclectic bassy cuts, each one different to that which preceded it, this Saturday at MU will surely be appreciated by those lovers of groovy, minimal productions.
