“Once upon a time, V.I.V.E.K Sharda was unhappy with the sound at UK nightclubs and parties—sound that he felt couldn’t capture the deepest, truest vibrations of the music he wanted to play and hear—so he just made his own sound system. (Naturally, he called it System.) That should give you an idea of how seriously Sharda takes his wubs and his sub-bass, and if you have even a passing interest in UK sound system culture or dub’s crossover with dance music—including, yes, dubstep—then you’ve probably heard of V.I.V.E.K, or at least heard one of his chest-rattling records.
Along with producers like Om Unit and Kryptic Minds—both of whom feature in the mix below—Sharda has never been one for following trends or concerned about scenes. Instead, he’s fully devoted to the pulse of dub and the luxury of bassweight. He’s put out slow but steady stream of ultra-heavy releases on his own labels System Music and VIVEK, and now he’s on a mission to change perceptions of what 140 BPM music can sound like. That’s what you’ll hear on his RA Podcast, a meditative and occasionally tectonically-shifting mix that highlights dubstep, dub and its many offshoots—not just staggered drums and subterranean low-end but smooth swing and soulful melodies, too.”

V.I.V.E.K of Deep Medi – Train Wreck Mix – RBMA Radio

Leave a Comment / Electronic music /

“Today’s electronic music scene revolves continuously on hype, and there are few artists and labels that can rely almost entirely on their musical content to do their talking. Mala’s Deep Medi camp and V.I.V.E.K are noted exceptions to this rule. Influenced by the golden years of drum & bass and fed on a steady diet of dub and roots music, V.I.V.E.K has been honing his musical construction skills since 2004. Progressing naturally from DJing to production, V.I.V.E.K shaped his unique subterranean groove through several feted releases for Deep Medi, solidifying his reputation as one of the most talented artists on the label. V.I.V.E.K has also become a regular DJ on the DMZ/Deep Medi nights, playing chest rattling, consciousness moving exclusives as a norm, reminding listeners of why they all fell in love with the dubstep sound in the first place.”
