Wally is a dubstep dj/producer from Montreal, Canada. Touching decks for the first time in 2003 to entertain drunken college kids with indie and punk rock, moving on to the rave scene with mind-bending psytrance in 2005, organizing various all-nighter events. After a baptism to dubstep in an all-night party in a Montreal record store featuring none other than benga, wally was immediately sucked in to the world of dubstep.
Since then he has taken part in organizing a weekly event that serves as the backbone for Montreal's dubstep scene. In less than two years Forward Thursday's has had the chance to welcome a wide-range of artists such as Loetech, Sixtoo, DZ, Datsik, Spor and Plastician to name a few. Wally has also taken part in events by Bassdrive, Bassmob, Rough n' rugged and Komodo dubs.
In 2009, Wally has moved into dubstep production. The goal of his tunes are simple, bring fresh new sounds that wreck the dancefloor without alienating the uninitiated. He takes great pride in showing that dubstep is neither laid back chilling music nor repetitive wobbles on syncopated rhythms. Dubstep is better off undefined and unclassified.
2010 promises to be an important year for Montreal's scene as it witnesses the birth of Monkey dub recordings which will host Wally's first releases. Another project to look out for RISK, a dubstep ensemble with a live drummer and singer. In the meantime, be sure to check out his (almost) monthly gigs at bassdrive Wednesdays and weekly appearances at Forward music montreal Thursdays.
