Released October 2004 : It's about
love. To music, to peace, to the city
of Montreal and future united cultures
of the world. This is far from being
another boring "chill compilation".
THE FUTURE SOUND OF MONTREAL
is a project started in 2003 with
the goal of promoting promising talents
residents in that city. Montreal is,
and has been a very important capital
in music and culture. The heritage
of the expo 67, the Olympics in 1976
and other great events made the city
one of the most multicultural places
in the world, and without ghettos
or isolation many cultures can interact
and live in peace, creating a unique
new world-culture. "Many great
communities, one great city"
THE FUTURE SOUND OF MONTREAL 2
features artists from different cities
of Quebec (Monsieur Max, National
Fred & Dan Lalonde) and also artists
representing some important communities
in Montreal with different characteristics:
such has the Latino, the Italian,
the Greek (Wize Beats), the pride,
the Chinese and the Portuguese community
among others. About the sound, THE
FUTURE SOUND OF MONTREAL 2 also
features the different sounds from
that unique MIX of cultures, from
the Jazzy hip hop of Butta Babes and
Dan Lalonde featuring Big Boy, the
instrumental trip form of National
Fred and Monsieur Max, to the involving
ElectroSoul of Zenobia Salik and Nino
de la Torre, the the organic sound
of Angela Latham and the cool pop
of Local music awards winner Sophie
Young.
