Canada's dub maestro Deadbeat makes a welcome return to Echocord to round out the year with his Pressure Double Down EP, comprised of three original cuts. Adopted Montrealer Scott Montieth, aka Deadbeat, has been at the forefront of dub tinged techno and minimal leaning sounds since the turn of the millennium, racking up albums on the beloved Pole helmed scape in the early 2000s before going on to run his own label BLKRTZ where he regularly release material, as well as further releases on imprints such as Wagon Repair and of course Echocord, where he returns here with his latest collection of works. "Too Much Pressure" leads the EP, a fifteen-minute excursion through intricate percussion, choppy, dubbed out stab sequences and psychedelic vocals all infused with Deadbeat's signature subtly unfurling flair and nuanced dynamism. "Double Bubble" follows and lays down an amalgamation of delicately intertwined chord melodies, sub bass tones spiraling echoes and a crunchy analogue rhythm section. "Rattle The Roof Down" then concludes the EP on a more minimal tinged tip, bringing a heavy low-end dub reggae bass groove to the front while spacey percussive delays and murky swells ebb and flow throughout the hypnotic groove.
