about

CID RIM is a London based drummer, producer and composer. Born in Vienna, he and his highschool buddies, Dorian Concept & The Clonious, shared their love for jazz, hip hop and electronic music. They all started producing beats in their bedrooms and merged their musical talent in the band JSBL. I n 2010Cid Rim released his first split-solo EP together with The Clonious on local label Affine Records. His drum-heavy eclectic mix of funk & electronics, which never ceases to surprise, has since made him internationally known. His search for new input led him to writing rooms in LA, Paris, NY and London, where he found a new home with Lucky Me Records. In 2017 he released his debut Album Material followed by Songs of Vienna in November 2021. He has collaborated with Dorian Concept, Chvrches, Sky Ferreira, Klangkarussell, The Clonious & many more.

… how & why:

After Clemens Radauer got invited to curate a series of 7″ recordings at Vinylograph, he instantly thought of Cid Rim, since he is a great musician and they have been friends for many years. On many occasions Clemens Radauer have seen him on stage – solo, with JSBL or the Dorian Concept Trio – and CID RIM always delivered! His unforgettable solo shows with live drums have an unparalleled energy and uplifting vibe. He accepted Clemens Radauers invitation as the first test recorder and on the 12th of April 2018 he recorded the song U.N.M. 1. single sided direct to vinyl.

WIEN33 is an ongoing series of direct to vinyl recordings. Artists are invited to record 7 inch vinyls, 33 units and each one by one, making each vinyl one of a kind.

Host is VINYLOGRAPH, a space for live recording that uses a lathe cutting machine built by Natascha Muhić & Christoph Freidhöfer in 2014. They based their design on the technology of recording booths popular in the 1940ies, but improved specific aspects and made the machine fully automatic. Since building the vinylograph a diverse range of vinyls have been cut in the multi-purpose space in the center of the 5th Viennese district – most direct to vinyl and in very limited series. Aras Seyhan is the sound- & recording engineer who is responsible for transporting the sound from the instruments/artists through the vinylograph and onto vinyl. A task that can sometimes be a bit tricky since the machine is a prototype that unfortunately may run into some minor difficulties.

Cut with a lathe-cutter from the 1940ies, the vinyls are mono and have a distinct vintage sound.

The series WIEN33 is curated by Clemens Radauer, a cultural historian and music aficionado, who has been working in the music context for almost 25 years. He invites artist from different backgrounds – from literature, to experimental music to jazz – active in Vienna or close to the Viennese scene.

The artists have full freedom in deciding how and what they want to record… some choose to record one song 33 times and leave the flip-side blank whereas some choose to record 66 different tracks on both sides. Clemens also designs the covers for each recording and decorates them each by hand, making them one of the kind just like every vinyl.

Each recording session has been an amazing, intense and a once-in-a-lifetime experience both for the recording artist and the WIEN33 team. And we are looking forward to many more.
