DeltronDeltron 3030
(75Ark, 2000)
Before Del guested on the Gorillaz first single, he and Dan the Automator made an album replete with the futuristic, downbeat production and post-apocalyptic lyricism that must have been the inspiration for Damon Albarn’s post-Blur work. Deltron 3030 is the best album that either Del or Automator has been a part of and speaks volume about the impact of a well executed idea. Weirdo hip hop at its most whimsically bizarre and head noddingly satisfying.
