Step outside and put up your dukes cuz Montreal's blue-collar road-warriors The Beatdown are set to knock out their debut self titled full-length this summer!

This hardworking four-piece outfit has a deep and unyielding passion for roots reggae, ska and Jamaican music while adding their own elements of 60's soul delivered with a gritty and uncompromising punk rock ethic. Formed out of the ashes of the now legendary trad ska soul band The One Night Band, The Beatdown bring the heavy heavy reggae sound to the masses with their explosive recordings and energetic live shows. Although the band formed less than a year ago they have toured more than 10 countries sharing the stage with Vernon Maytone (The Maytones), The Slackers, The Planet Smashers, Chris Murray, U-Roy, Subb and The Johnstones just to name a few and have enjoyed top billing at the Montreal International Reggae Festival, Montreal Ska Fest and the Ottawa Ska Fest among others.

The self-titled record features twelve hard-hitting tracks of pure summer time goodness. Recorded over several months at Indygene studios by producer Alex Giguere (Planet Smashers, Staylefish, The One Night Band, The Real Deal, RDC, Mighty Stef), The Beatdown brought in some good friends and members of the ska elite to lend their talents to a few tracks. Josh Fuhrman (Planet Smashers , Kingpins) on tenor sax, Larry Love (One Night Band) on organ and Patty Tee (Kman & The 45s) on trombone round out this stellar recording. 

A native of Montreal, Metikulus made the jump to Toronto in 2014 to further his music career. He took his personal METIKULUS Beats brand and partnered with Toronto production group Organic Visionz.

Born on the 31st of May 1984, Metik learned early that music flowed through his bones. Having been a musician, rapper, Disc Jockey, CEO, manager, mixtape host, composer, songwriter, producer, music video director and visual & graphic artist over the years, Metik has made sure to make a name for himself in the Montreal region in the music industry. After working with a lot of the English artists in Montreal, he moved to Toronto for 4 years to gain knowledge, experience and to network. After this period he moved back to Montreal to take on a full-time sound engineer position at Golan Studios, located in the downtown core.

Focusing on producing hybrid music, he is currently working on his debut instrumental album, “DreamState”, which will be a blend between psy-trance, ambient and R&B music. He has also managed to come up with a marketing plan to get exposure as an independent artist and producer.

I can usually be found making beats behind the bike shed.
