Montreal, one of the new fastest growing electronic music capitals in the world, is home to Applied Acoustics employee Scott Monteith, the person behind Deadbeat's electronic sound textures and intensive delay patterns. He started releasing music in 1998 on Hautec, Revolver and Intr_version records but Berlin label ~Scape picked him up coincidentally with their renewal of vows to the electro-dub genres and its closest derivatives. "Wild Life Documentaries" is a journey through the deconstruction of classical dub and its reinvention through new sonic concepts and applied emotional states. Deep bass lines are obviously included in the package, but it is rather pleasing to notice how much effort has been put in the soft synthetic surface as opposed to only in the carrying bass. I couldn't help noticing how sounds like the ones in "For Palestine" are reminiscent of Young Gods most ethereal mixes and remixes, although the warm digital structures are enriched by nice sampling patch-work and countless yet well dosed repetitions that give it that timeless aura of some British productions by Sherwood or Alpha & Omega or by German field players such as Hoester Sound System, Groove Galaxi. Personally I prefer dub when it is associated with electronic music, rather than reggae, so this is a winner in my book! Great job! If you love dub, definitely go for it... Available on CD and double LP set.
