Customer Reviews of U.S.S.R. Reconstruction
Some interesting and varied remixes here - solid overall More like 3.75 stars. Like most remix albums, you'll find some gems and some (relative) duds on here. But some sensational reworkings of Vadim's famous minimalism make this album a worthy purchase as long as you're prepared to hit the Next button every once in a while. But the best tracks are easily 5 star material, and may be worth the price alone. Some of the standout tracks are by Herbaliser, DJ Krush and Silent Poets.
It's 2006 and this is still solid (3.5 stars)
Why am I writing this? I have no time to review albums. Whatever. I just got this in the mail today off, you guessed it, Amazon.com. Class organization, class organization... Well, if you're reading this review there isn't much to tell you that you don't already know. You probably already know what Vadim sounds like and you probably know what Ninja Tune artists sound like too.

>I got this for the 'Conquest of the Irrational' remix by the prunes that was on the Kid Loco 'DJ Kicks' compilation (one of the great mix CD's to ever grace my earsdrums). I had been looking for it for years but obviously not very hard (when it wasn't on the 'Conquest' E.P. I naturally gave it up). But last week I was looking for it for some not-too-odd reason and thankfully amazon had some samples so I was able to listen to it and finally order it.

>Now I have listened to it all evening on my headphones while writting e-mails and here is my simpleton review- it's the year 2006 and it still sounds good. It's not going to knock your socks off or anything. BUT if you were a fan of the darker, beat-heavy, early Ninja sound and let this album slip past you it was a mistake! I know this now almost a decade later. Oops! Better late than never I suppose. Don't get me wrong, it's no 'Mad Blunted Jazz', but it's not a stick-in-the-eye either. Solid dark jazzy beats that could be passed off as Downtempo circa now.
Nina Tune Stalwarts ýReinterpretý Vadimýs worký.
Although it appears to be a completely new release...this is actually a remix album of sorts....(at least 5-6 appeared in drastically remixed form, off the "Theory of Verticality" album), as well as a handful of new tracks....so far so normal, but the difference here is that `DJ Vadim' has chosen a Who's Who, of Ninja Tune / Trip-Hop Talent to provide the remixing & reinterpretations of each of the songs as well as Vadim remixing some of his own tracks. People brought in for this project include (The Herbaliser/DJ Krush/Techno Animal/Kid Koala/Clatterbox/Oval/Animals on Wheels...etc), and remarkably there's not a single bad tune on here...moving smoothly through the Ambient Breakbeat of "DJ Krush's - Variations in U.S.S.R.", the Funky Trip-Hop of "The Herbaliser's - Conquest Of The Irrational", and percussive Instrumentalism of "Kid Koala's - Vad Forgive Me"....here is a album not afraid of to push the boundaries of Experimentalism, and yet immediately accessible to Trip-Hop / Ninja Tune fans, although the quality of this release deserves a much wider audience than Breakbeat / Trip-Hop fans.
