Guillaume Coutu Dumont has been unstoppable over the past three years. Since releasing his debut album, Face A L Est, on Montreals Musique RisquUe label in 2007, the Montreal-born Berliner has released a steady stream of EPs, remixes and compilation tracks for Circus Company, Musique Risquee, Oslo, Cocoon and many more. He has also kept up a nonstop touring schedule, wowing crowds the world over with a dynamic live show that never sounds the same twice. Throughout, he has developed one of the most distinctive styles in contemporary house music-a deep, powerful and original fusion of Afro-Latin percussion, instrumental melodies, soulful vocals, and intricate rhythm programming. Now, with his new album Breaking the Fourth Wall, he takes another big step forward.
From dark-and-stormy basement jams to Ethiopian-tinged fantasias, from Afrobeat to ambient house, Breaking the Fourth Wall finds Guillaume venturing far beyond the limits of 4/4 boompty-boompty. He set himself the added challenge of making the album sound as much like the work of a live band as possible. Dave Aju recorded the vocals for On the Lips in his San Francisco studio. Switzerland/Zaires Dynamike, whom Guillaume met at the Montreux Jazz Festival, brings an Afro-beat feel to Radio Novela. Guillaumes longtime collaborators Marc-Andre Charbonneau, Sebastien- Arcand Tourigny and Nicolas Boucher all feature on various tracks, playing guitar, saxophone and Rhodes. But it all holds together as a remarkably coherent listening experience, while remaining far more varied than your average 12? single. While the DJs will have plenty to keep them busy, between driving cuts like Helicoptere and Walking the Pattern, the album takes many turns, digging into a kind of dub-cumbia on Radio Novela". Its that acoustic element that gives Breaking the Fourth Wall such uncommon depth.
