  • Montreal's Mutek Festival has just revealed the second wave of performers that will grace its stages for its 10th anniversary. Minimal fans should be quite excited by the news that Ricardo Villalobos will be making a rare appearance on North American shores, playing a marathon 7 hour set with Perlon cohort Zip. Dubsteppers are catered for by Digital Mystikz member Mala, whilst Monolake man Robert Henke will perform his and Christopher Bauder's Atom installation, which features a series of compositions played on a matrix of 64 illuminated helium balloons. Berlin duo nsi. (AKA Tobias Freund and Loderbauer) and Sheffield-based IDM merchants Snd will both fly over to showcase their avant-garde electronics, but there's also plenty of homegrown talent on show. Recent German migrant Deadbeat and Jamaican vocalist Paul St. Hilaire will team up to recreate their collaboration on last year's acclaimed Roots & Wire LP, while his Crackhaus cohort Stephen Beaupré will play solo. The Mole, Matt Thibideau, and Martin Tétreault and Michel Langevin's ambient collaboration round off the additions, but undecided minds should hold tight until next month for the festival's final line-up announcement.
