review of Deadbeat's new CD from the BBC website:

Deadbeat
Wild Life Documentaries
(~scape)

It's hard to believe that it's been ten years since Germany's Basic Channel label crossed the threshold between deep techno and dirty dub. Since then, the techno community has come a long way and regularly enjoys bathing in scratchy rhythm beds and deep minimal basslines brought to us from the back streets of Berlin.

From New York to Tokyo to Auckland, there have been many who have embraced this sound, with notable success. More recently however, the Canadians have gotten in on the act - First with Toronto's Audi Sensa imprint, and now Montreal's own Deadbeat is leading the charge.

Deadbeat is one Scott Montheit, a key player in Montreal's new music scene for almost a decade now. Getting his start with labels like Revolver and Hautec, he recently signed up to the excellent ~scape label for this debut full length. The fact that a German label has released a record like this is no mistake.

Bringing the patented King Tubby/Lee Perry sound ten steps further down the road, Wild Life Documentaries sees Montheit layering ambient beds of granular noise over skanking beats, offering the best bang for the buck the further the tracks progress.

But rather than simply dive into the effects processors like the Basic Channel crew, Montheit keeps his style firmly grounded in the old school of dub. Its a sound half rooted in the analogue low end of yesterday and the razor sharp digital dynamics of today.

Although it's a linear listen, there are a few twists and turns along the way. "A Dub For Akufen", (a track meant originally as a collaboration between the two artists) bounces and along like a dub filled dustball, gathering speed and size as it rolls down a steep hill.

"Organ In The Attic" takes an old Hammond B3 and throws it straight into the dub blender at half speed creating a wonderfully thick and chunky sound, as does the aptly titled "To Berlin With Love", where we see Deadbeat crank out a heavy almost four-to-the-floor beat with some fantastic rhythm samples thrown in.

Germany, or at least certain factions within Berlin's techno scene, would indeed be proud. While perhaps not as groundbreaking as some of the other music coming out of Montreal these days, Deadbeat is nevertheless an excellent exercise in dubbed out techno that fans of the style should consider an essential purchase. A very cool release for you crazy dubheads out there.

Reviewer: Olli Siebelt

pitchfork review of Deadbeat's newest CD New World Observer:


Scott Montieth (Deadbeat) pours rainwater over his dub. Just about every thunder clap on the snare, prick of the guitar string, amniotic keyboard melody, weathered-vinyl hum, and synthesizer blurt flows into a gutter-- disintegrating bit by bit in the runoff. When the Montreal artist released Wild Life Documentaries in 2002, his miles-deep bass and snare-chipped rhythms remained faithful to Kingston at a time when so many laptop-bohos took Pole's "digital dub" premise and thoroughly sterilized it.

While dub is typically revered for its clockwork rhythm that snaps the mind into a trance, what is heard between the beats and the notes matter just as much. In the Wild Life and its equally hypnotic follow-up, Something Borrowed, Something Blue, Montieth found uncanny beauty in the rainwater effect as his music evoke the sensation of brain synapses struggling to recall vague memories amid a narcotic haze. Cynics could dismiss Montieth's much of sleek electro-percussion and glossy synth flourishes as mere filler for Hollywood suspension flicks. However, Montieth still taps into a netherworld of disjointed time, place and memory that intoxicates as much as enchants, all deftly proven in New World Observer.

The "new world" as presented in Montieth's latest LP is impossible to determine. The atmospherics are darker than on his previous joints; the grooves are more fractured and uneasy. A weariness pervades here, as personified by the watercolors dripped by guest vocalist Athesia. Judging by a few song titles, Montieth is drawing illustrations of a Middle East damaged by the grave contradictions of U.S. foreign policy with a broken charcoal pencil and blood-smeared fingertips. "Abu Ghraib" begins with a distorted sample of Rush Limbaugh whitewashing the damning photos of American servicemen torturing and humiliating Iraqi detainees for pleasure. After comparing such sadism to frat-boy play, the apologist asked his listeners, "Have you ever heard of emotional release?" to which another voice, possibly Montieth's, snaps an echoing "fuck off." Montieth then sears the ears with a rooftop rain-synth patch before undergoing a loose groove by brushed snare and conga, in tosses visages of a melody back and forth as if debating itself.

"Little Town of Bethlehem" also addresses Middle East politics with an excerpt from an interview of a Palestinian woman recalling the violent entry of an Israeli-Jewish settlement near her town. It's followed by a mournful, minor-key piano ballad with a bassline brooding in the distance, avoiding any crescendo or climax in continuing to walk and mind its own business. Montieth better translated his anxieties and hopes for the Israeli-Palestinian conflict in Wild Life, on which his sparse rhythms and desolate atmospherics all seemed to view Israeli streets through a police night-vision camera. Opener "Slow Rot from Rhetoric" solidifies the album's sense of exhausted dreams with a inching, death march beat and organ melodies that veer through the stereo speakers like hallucinated angels waiting for souls to leave the earth.

For the most part, Montieth's rhythms thankfully break away from his live, but auto-piloted grooves and dwells in post-Timbaland ethno-hop territory. Flamenco rhythms curl the beat and Athesia's crooned French syllables on "Port-Au-Prince", while they jolt the bones on the uptempo jaunt "Texas Tea". On "Rock of Ages", Montieth liquidates a splashing hi-hat on an otherwise generic dub number.

Closer "Habitat for Heavy Hearts" has Montieth superimposing a field recording of crickets over synth drones ladled from the ether. By the album's end, it is unclear if he was in a "new world" to begin with, given that he generally keeps his music within the same formula of brooding and digitally smeared dub since 2002. One might consider New World Observer as the blues for a homeless soul in a world distorted by mass media. If anything, Montieth seems to be one of those angels following the death march; taking the hand of fallen souls to another place that has one question a previous life on earth more than celebrate its escape from it.

fuck it, i'm starting a new thread cause y'all betta recognize how fucking ILL this shit is.


this Thursday, June 9th, Mix @ Saphir is very proud to present:

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

DEADBEAT (musique risquee)
Deadbeat is one Scott Monteith, an adopted Montrealer who has been releasing his own special blend of dub laden, minimal electronics since 2000 for labels such as Cynosure, Intr_version, Revolver , and ~Scape. His work has been met with consistant critical acclaim from the industry's leading publications and websites, and drawn performance invitations for some of the world's most respected festivals, including Barcelona's Sonar, Berlin's Transmediale, and Montreal's own Mutek. From 1999 to late 2003, Scott worked, assuming various roles, for the Montreal based company Applied Acoustics Systems, makers of the Tassman Software Synthesizer. Having now moved on to pursue his own musical efforts full time, the experience has left him with a passion for the development of new creative interfaces, and a strong grasp of some the most cutting edge technology in the industry. Whether crafting quirky, not-quite-dancefloor techno, or rumbling digital dub,Scott continually strives to create music that honours the past beyond empty tribute or cultural appropriation, by infusing the digital tools of the present with a little of the magic known as human imperfection. This year alone, Deadbeat has released the phenomenal New World Observer full-length with ~Scape recordings, and has travelled to perform in San Francisco, Zurich, London, Berlin, China (Beijing, Chengdu and Shenzen with MUTEK_China), and NYC. For more info about Deadbeat visit: [ www.techno.ca ]

NITROUS (in da [ jungle.com ]
Guillaume Provencher aka Nitrous aka D-Joos was introduced to Drum & Bass in the late 90' with the first records of the Ninja Tune Camp. Having taken his roots in the Hip-Hop scene, he immediately got hooked with these breaks. Spinning for eight years now, Nitrous has taken the Mtl Drum & Bass scene by storm, playing alongside the likes of Klute (UK), Concord Dawn (UK), Kemal (UK), Panacea (Germany), Digital (UK), Juju (USA), and more. Nitrous founded his own production company, Kracked Knuckles, in the Summer of 2000 in Montreal. He's now making things move with the well-established In Da Jungle monthly parties, and will be playing alongside UK's legendary John B this Saturday at Gravity.

SPACEKADET (frogland breakers, planete break)
With the sucess of their Planete Break events the Frogland Breakers have earned a reputation for throwing exciting breakbeat-oriented parties replete with live performances, visuals, turntablism and, of course, great mixing. As founder of the collective, Spacekadet is known for his seamless mixing skills, party-rocking tracks, and ability to subtly warp the breaks mandate to suit the occasion.

DELIZ (no commercial value)
With Ghettoblast and Bounce Action, NCV's Dave O'Brien and Jason Delis have established themselves as excellent DJs. Diverse, with a knack for blending dissimilar styles, and an ear that quickly detects and files crowd-pleasing club jams as easily as dark, abstract creations, Deliz is a master of weaving electro, tech-house, house, techno and electrobreaks into a unified set of dancefloor bliss.

SCREWHEAD (resin radio)
This up-and-coming DnB/acid/metal DJ and producer shows no mercy for the weak, blatantly disregarding all conventions in his productions and track selection while appeasing the gods and the earths with solid skills, confidence and brutality behind the decks. Screwhead will pwn your brain.

as always mix thursdays are upstairs at saphir, mad 2-for-1 beers and free before midnight, get your hooty on. (also i bought those poofy orange tings... no more skipping!)

ya we were really happy with thta set up for both rooms, the downstairs owned imo in the fact that it had the wizzard lighting system, which proved to be the epicenter of good vibrations-ness. also, the smoke machine added obvious pwn4g3 to the downstairs. the upstairs nevertheless was kicking quite a bit of ass, no doub.t Big thanks to mindlab for his part in creating a hallucinatory environment. also big thanks to my projector for overheating five times, u rule. uhhhh...... ya, thanks to everyone, we succesfuly created a mad house.

big up to everyone for their support, huge big ups to adrenalin comin all the way from burlington to tear some virgin asshole, and carlos sotto all the way from vegas (unofortunately his set was virtually eliminated in the vast array of technical difficulties that plagued good vibrations from start to finish.. .. boo final scratch you fucking whore.. nevertheless a huge thanks to Sotto i only hope next time he comes, that everyone can hear what he is capable of...) .. represent Route 66 til i die...

huge thanks to all the locals that helped out, tipsy, clown, the broken trinity, of course all the frogland and uk514 homies, scotty for choosing level 4 over hippies and playing (what i heard was..) an amaazing live pa, dave and danielle for coming down and shining at the beginning and end of g.v., mistoleum for volunterring his services at the last minute and playin gsome ill hard tek with carlos (you guyth make thuch a thweet couple).. all the crews for their help gettin the word out, neoform soundsystem proved again that it's perfectly suited to ecube, respects @ ian ...big thnks to moog audio, ecler and soundwerks audio and my man jonny thrice, thanks to everyone at ecube for being so kind as to let us use teir space (next time get more b#@#z3 dooods!), and being overjoyed when we proceeded to fill it far beyond capacity, make piles of noise, drink all their soluble liquids, and leave empty bottles, botched smokes and vomit stains everywhere within a 500 metre radius ..ecube for LIFE!

thanks to the people behind the scenes.. that means joey cormier, for manning the door, doing set up AND tear down, and then sticking around to drink like 23 pabst blue ribbons over a span of like 12 hours, thanks Jesse for your help too, dialect and christie for your endurance, and most importantly, thanks to my bros @ level 4, carlos *happy fucking birthday*, mindlab for his dope visuals, and freebass and kilobyte for the hours of organizing, planning, brainstorming, and grolsching that, without which, good vibrations never could've happened...

post up your pics people! i know there's more...!!

it sfunny actually reggie i just did a ghettotek remix of a track sase gave me hardsteppers, that has you mcing heheh! [ www.level4productions.com ] lemme know what u think... most of what i make nowadays is ghettotek.. or really fucked experimental shit, not much straight techno, i've never really been able to make that well ::(

weerrrrrd everything looks ILL for the party, 75% of setup is completed already with no unforseen occurences... see ya there! :)

12-1 dj tipsy t
1-2 sarcastic
2-3 philgood
3-4 adrenalin
4-5 clown
5-6 toltech vs mistoleum
6-7 freebass

just to answer a couple of questions that people keep asking us.



1. How much are tickets? where do I get tickets.

$5. AT THE DOOR ONLY. THERE ARE NO ADVANCE TICKETS.





2. Where is the party?

AT 215 MURRAY STREET, ECUBE. People may remember this venue from parties such as School, Spread the Word, Concord Dawn, etc. Murray street is one street west of Peel, just south of Notre-Dame O. you can walk very easily from Lucien Lallier or Bonaventure metros (5 minutes), you can also walk from Peel/Guy areas, which would take about 10-15 minutes.

you want me to draw you a frikkin map? aight werd son

here's my shit: TROOPER!!!

A very good friend of mine
Told me something the other day
I'd like to pass it in to you
Cause I believe what he said to be true
He said

We're here for a good time
Not a long time (not a long time)
So have a good time
The sun can't shine every day

And the sun is shinin'
In this rainy city
And the sun is shinin'
Oooooh, isn't it a pity
And every year, has it's share of tears
And every now and then it's gotta rain

We're here for a good time
Not a long time
So have a good time
The sun can't shine every day

And the sun is shinin'
In this rainy city
And the sun is shinin'
Oooooh, isn't it a pity
That every year, has it's share of tears
Every now and then it's gotta rain

We're here for a good time
Not a long time
So have a good time
The sun can't shine every day

yesh! DEADBEAT! i'm so psyched for that. we were lucky enough to have him play at tekstyle like, four years ago (before he BLEW the fuck outta this minimal dub production shit.. solo and also with Crackhaus...) .. one of my favourite producers in the world, without a doubt...

this was a retarded idea pitting 10 djs against each other 30 mins each.. ended up being really fun, felt like it was a DMC battle of beatmatching, 30 mins to prove yourself heheh, and a cool chance to meat/hear some peeps i hadn't before: deep j max, tricky pat, furious... solid night, good vibez, big up route 66 as always
