Chill-Out And Relax – Here’s GORILLAZ Ft. SCHOOLBOY Q And New Groove ‘PAC-MAN’
New sonic impulses…
21 July 2020
Early this year GORILLAZ started a new project called Song Machine with the
cartoon heroes teaming up with other temporary artists. First came rap junk
Slowthai, then we got fierce punks Slaves, followed by Fatoumata Diawara,
then Peter Hook and Georgia joined the fun too just like Octavian did.
Today GORILLAZ premiered the collaboration with Schoolboy Q.
PAC-MAN is a relaxing lets chill-out vibe with Damon Albarn whispering over
a lazy beat. When Schoolboy Q takes over after two minutes the song turns
into a waterfall rap.

bass lines by Hooky.

Happy 50 To ‘BLUR’ & ‘GORILLAZ’ Frontman And 24/7 Musical Centipede… DAMAN ALBARN.
23 March 2018
Happy 50 to DAMON ALBARN. Born in London on 23 March 1968 this musical centipede is most famous as the frontman of Britpop legends BLUR and singer/songwriter of virtual band GORILLAZ . But as a 24/7 musician he did far more than being a legendary pop star. He collaborated with countless artists, from African roots artists to sixties icon Marianne Faithfull, from writing musicals to forming a band with The Clash bassist Paul Simonon.
Here are 3 crackers Turn Up The Volume! picked to celebrate the man’s 50th birthday…

GORILLAZ – Already Back With Brand New Track… ‘SLEEPING POWDER’
Clips that will impress your ears and your eyes…
After releasing new, long-awaited, album HUMANZ just last April GORILLAZ is already back with a brand new track. Damon Albarn says SLEEPING POWDER is just one of the
40 to 45 songs (!) that didn’t make it onto the new LP so a quick follow-up longplayer is expected. But first this fresh vibrant tune, actually a 2-D solo effort with Albarn on vocals…
