Videocast #5, Pop Mtll: Beirut @ Theatre National
Long time awaited performance tonite from Beirut who did there first Montreal show as a part of Pop Montreal festival. A great show which ended up setting the crowd on fire off stage. Watch video for more – i’m still burning. High quality of this video is here: Listen to Beirut on december 2005 podcast.
Giselle, Oh so numba one!
I was stunned by the simplicity, voice, beats and melody of tonite’s Giselle Numba One performance. This girl is definitely at her place – one of Montreal’s few good hiphop-pop solo female performer. Again, impressing. Listen here.

Videocast #4, Pop Montreal: Gonzales, Organism & Reahmickser
Gonzales’s performance tonite @ pop montreal was a perfect example of reahmicksing. Re-use a church for a music performance, use a screen to project the image of the artist dressed as a monk, performing remixes of 80’s pop songs on a organ (artist who btw could have been anywhere in the world but in mtl).… Continue reading Videocast #4, Pop Montreal: Gonzales, Organism & Reahmickser
