Release Notes:
When Gorillaz first emerged on the music scene, the idea of
a virtual band composed of edgy cartoon personas that
existed only on screen seemed both strange and brilliant. It
may have been a gimmick, tailor-made for MTV back when it
still regularly played videos, but it was an inventive one.
And with huge breakthrough hits like "Clint Eastwood,"
"Tomorrow Comes Today" and "Feel Good Inc.," it was hard not
to get caught up in the contagious combination of dub, hip-
hop, Brit-pop and electronic music.
Gorillaz is essentially the brainchild of Blur frontman
Damon Albarn and comic-book artist Jamie Hewlett best
known for his work on Tank Girl who dreamed up the project
back in 1998. Albarn would handle the music while Hewlett
would design the characters (2D, Murdoc Niccals, Noodle and
Russel), which serve as the visual element in Gorillaz's
stylishly animated music videos.
Plastic Beach unites Albarn and Hewlett with a huge list of
guests, creating yet another well-crafted and dance-friendly
set of songs. Here, Albarn and company's songs demonstrate a
genre-bending collection of glitchy club beats and hip-hop
grooves, augmented by brass, glitzy synthesizers and Asian-
and Arabic-tinged orchestral harmonies.
Much of the diversity in sound can be attributed to
Gorillaz's constantly expanding group of collaborators. The
original musical lineup as heard on 2001's Gorillaz
blended the talents of Albarn and Dan "The Automator"
Nakamura, as well as Kid Koala, Del tha Funkee Homosapien,
Cibo Matto's Miho Hatori and Tom Tom Club's Tina Weymouth
and Chris Frantz. Soon, with the follow-up Demon Days,
Gorillaz's ever-rotating cast expanded to include Danger
Mouse, Blondie's Debbie Harry, De La Soul and singer Martina
Topley-Bird.
Plastic Beach continues this trend, with Albarn bringing in
an impressive roster of musical contributors: Snoop Dogg,
Bobby Womack, Lou Reed, Mos Def, Super Furry Animals' Gruff
Rhys, Little Dragon, The Lebanese National Orchestra for
Oriental Arabic Music, and many more.
Still, Albarn's musical touch and wit are felt throughout.
From the Thriller-infused electro-funk of "Stylo" to the
bubbly grooves of "Superfast Jellyfish" and "Some Kind of
Nature," there's something for everyone, and often in the
same song. Even three albums into what might have initially
seemed to be a one-off art project, Gorillaz's Plastic Beach
exudes fun.
