TADEVSZ (Tadeusz Valadrian-Smith), is the name I use when producing, performing, and portraying the person I want to be. I've been producing since 2015, collaborating with other Portland artists and working to find a sound unique to my values, lived experience, and culture. Growing up with an American mom who listened to Morrisey and the Beastie Boys, and a Colombian dad who listened to Willie Colon and Manu Chao, I've always worked to find a balance between all of the sounds and rhythms that make me move, and that's the goal. I wanna make people bounce, I wanna set aside my inner dialogue and transmit myself faithfully through sound and bounce.
