referencing New World Observer, CD, Album, ~scape27cd, sc27cd. Low and slow - that's the beauty of Deadbeat's New World Observer. Scott Monteith, the man behind Deadbeat, creates more spacious forms of dub, from the floating French vocals on "Port-Au-Prince" to the languid "N'Importe Quoi. The distorted and disembodied voices on "Abu Ghraib" lend an eerie sheen to an otherwise apolitical track (except for its title, obviously)
The "new world" as presented in Montieth's latest LP is impossible to determine. The atmospherics are darker than on his previous joints; the grooves are more fractured and uneasy. A weariness pervades here, as personified by the watercolors dripped by guest vocalist Athesia. By the album's end, it is unclear if he was in a "new world" to begin with, given that he generally keeps his music within the same formula of brooding and digitally smeared dub since 2002. One might consider New World Observer as the blues for a homeless soul in a world distorted by mass media. If anything, Montieth seems to be one of those angels following the death march; taking the hand of fallen souls to another place that has one question a previous life on earth more than celebrate its escape from it.

Deadbeat's third album for Scape, New World Observer, is his most accomplished attempt yet to fuse dub, techno, and ambient music into a complex, undulating form. If you listen closely to the introduction of "Abu Ghraib," you'll hear the appalling rhetoric of a certain North American right-wing radio announcer slowed to a brainnumbing crawl.
The title of Deadbeat's third album for Scape, "New World Observer", begs the question of perspective. What do you think of this release?
