Vadim's young adult hood soundtrack was early noise bands, classic 80s hits, and new wave. What would seem normal to westerners was revolutionary to him because of the strict rules in his household on upholding a nationalistic identity and the general lack of access in his small town home. For a long while all he listened to was 60s-70s russian national icons like Yelena Kamburova,Muslim Magomayev, and [Eduard Khil](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nVRzVBhLsrU] simply because thats all his grandfather had and would allow under his roof.

His first introduction to music beyond that, was given to him by a neighbor boy he was infatuated with who always seemed to get his hands on imported western content ! the two albums were oingo boingos only a lad and throbbing gristles rafters . they absolutely blew his world apart, he played those tapes til they burned his cassette player...or got confiscated after he was caught listening to it alone in the chicken coop thinking surely nobody would hear !

Alot of his taste in noise was formed by some old bad influences in his life and his other taste can be blamed on the fact he's a radio enthusiast who genuinely just enjoys drinking smoking and reading the paper to it(he has a annoying habit of talking to/replying to the radio or the tv like they can actually hear him but thats unrelated)
