- Detroit techno, dubstep, minimal, avant-guitar music and plenty more are on the menu at this year’s Mutek Festival in Montreal. Now in its ninth year, Mutek is North America’s original art-meets-electronics festival. Spread over five days, the program is divided into three kinds of events: avant electronics and classical at the A/Visions events, Nocturne club nights, and a final two days of outdoor parties at Mutek/Piknic. Not to mention various panels and discussions on the Digi-Session program, which takes place during the day. In terms of club nights, Wednesday will feature a Detroit techno party featuring Underground Resistance, Thursday is a night of techno with Sleeparchive and Cristian Vogel, Friday is a varied bill that ranges from German nuttiness (Modeselektor) to turntablism (Kid Koala) to minimal (Half Hawaii), while the big party at Metropolis on Saturday features Carl Craig, Chloé, Nôze and The Field in the main room and Kode9, Quiet Village and Deadbeat in the lounge. The experimental program A/Visions includes an electronic classical night on Wednesday (Murcof, Morgan Packard and Joshue Ott), a film vs. sound concert featuring Rechenzentrum on Thursday, and a night of avant-guitar electronics with Fennesz and Tim Hecker. On the weekend, the party moves outside to Parc Jean-Drapeau with dubstep on the Saturday (Kode9 & Spaceape, Martyn) and minimal techno and house on the Sunday (Radio Slave, Mathias Kaden, Onur Özer.) And with over a third of the Mutek attendees arriving from out the Montreal area, it will also be a bit of an international gathering. Or a week-long DEMF afterparty, if you fancy a day’s drive up Highway 401.
