Patiently Awaiting The Meteorite - 'Electrified'

By David Farrell

Patiently Awaiting The Meteorite – ‘Electrified’ (Unda In Choc): Electro dance-funk juiced to perfection by an already successful composer/production trio helmed by Montreal's Grand Brothers (Dominique and Sylvain Grand) and Martin ‘Dee’ Granger. The team may not be household names (yet), but their work has them credited on a reel of TV, film, globally branded commercials and top-selling LPs by Bran Van 3000, Kevin Parent and Cirque Du Soleil.


Now, with FACTOR funding, they have set their sights on the Ibiza and Miami twister sets with a debut single included on the debut Canyon Diablo album that has its release May 18.

PATM's musical motif can be heard in antecedents such as Soft Cell and Crystal Castles, the accompanying video credits read like a movie-reel, and their production is bijou ne plus ultras.

Obituaries: Toronto Harmonica Ace/Vocalist Howard Willett Remembered By His Peers

This week we also acknowledge the passing of The Cure keyboardist/guitarist Perry Bamonte, bubblegum hitmaker Jerry Kasenetz, influential U.S. label head Howie Klein and innovative jazz musician Michal Urbaniak.

Howard Willett, a vocalist and harmonica player with the Bebop Cowboys, Whiskey Jack and many other Ontario country/roots outfits, died on Dec. 31. His age has not been reported.

On his Perlich Post blog, Toronto music journalist Tim Perlich says, "I'm saddened to hear that Parry Sound-born singer/harmonica ace Howard Willett has passed away. Howard was a longtime performer on the Toronto scene, well known for his work with the Bebop Cowboys, Swing-a-Billy Orchestra, Whiskey Jack, Junction City AllStars, The Shifters and many others. He'll be greatly missed."
