Guillaume & the Coutu Dumonts readies single and album

Monday, March 22, 2010 in Features by EB Team about Cocoon

Highly talented Guillaume Coutu Dumont aka Guillaume & The Coutu Dumonts will soon release anticipated new material from his sophomore album Breaking The Fourth Wall. We’ve been anxious to hear what’s next especially after Dumont’s 2008 corker ‘I Was On My Way To Hell’. The forthcoming single ‘Can’t Have Everything’ ends up combining some really smooth melodies with strong club energy.

Dumont’s trademark sound goes against the usual techno/house cliché, and is a pleasant change from the usual four-on-the-floor fillers. Operating since around 2007, he has released his debut album, Face À L’Est, on Montreal’s Musique Risquée label and since then followed with a steady stream of EPs, remixes and compilation tracks for labels like the Circus Company, Oslo and Cocoon.

Can’t Have Everything is released digitally on the 26th of April
Breaking The Fourth Wall is released on May 3rd
