I agree it's a bit slow. DJs typically speed it up slightly when playing it out

Joe Cornish explains it pretty well in the first ten mins or so here - its Damon, Suzi, Mike Smith and Nelson. https://www.globalplayer.com/podcasts/episodes/7DrZckj/

"London is the place for me" is such a distinctive (and wonderful) song, I knew Damon had to be involved.

Was Damon involved in these? It's suggested he was in a band that performed some of the music. But its hard to get full info online. "London is the place for me" was used as the title of 2 Honest Jon compilations. It seems a pretty big coincidence that it was then prominently used in Paddington. Per...

High time this was leaked privately to us on here! Had hoped someone would offer me a copy for my 40th birthday in February!

I was there! They were really good. Probably the best I've ever seen from them. Surprised me therefore that Gabi (primavera promoter) didn't seem to want Damon/Gorillaz back. But I see that's been rectfied for 2021. I didn't know that Gabi didn't want any more Damon projects in his festival, even D...

its not gonna happend i think. same no parklife or country house 2.0 I meant the next big hit. Will Damon ever write another hit for Gorillaz? Does he even have it in him? Or he just doesn't care anymore? The guy's main ambition seems to be to experiment as much as possible and collaborate with as ...

I think the new tune is fine. You can't expect every song to be a cracker. Momentary Bliss does increasingly look like a higher tier of quailty in terms of music and video. Anybody know why the video was so different to all their others?

It feels to me like there's been a big change of approach and rather than the huge gaps between phases, Damon and Jamie are now trying to make Gorillaz a kind of permanent presence. I wonder if the theory is that once they let it drop for a few years, at their age and with the prospect of a crossove...

Got round to watching this. Interesting stuff of course but pretty average and would be impenetrable to the casual viewer. Like a few folk have said - why? Was this to give Denholm Hewett a start, or something good on his CV? It's a bit better around the NOW now sessions because there's a small indi...

They are in poor shape around the time of 13. Damon must still be on heroin when they record the NDLTR video. I wonder if he agreed to get off it before Missy was born. I think that was sometime in the summer of 99.

I think The Now Now got a lot of uncalled shtick. It was obviously something in the line of The Fall. That being said, I think it could have been better produced. For instance, Tranz is a fantastic song that suffers a lot from very minimalistic production. Take the live version, it has so much ener...

Aries strays much too far into New Order pastiche territory for me. Lake Zurich possibly uses the same synthesizer, but was a lot better. Georgia apparently plays drums on Aries. I saw her on Jools a few months ago and it looked very style over substance. She was surrounded by a heap of equipment bu...

Thanks all. I had a great time. I will write a wee blog about it on my DJ site and will post a link when I've done so.
