48. GORILLAZ + ALEX METRIC

Thursday, March 11, 2010

old news: this has been floating around for a while. i've been listening to the gorillaz for 9 years and i'm convinced that damon albarn (also from the good, the bad & the queen and blur) is a motherfucking genius. the gorillaz new album, "plastic beach" (buy) is just as good as the first two albums (and d-sides). the first time i heard the single "stylo," i thought the track was written twenty years ago and PRODUCED today. it's amazing.

then i found the alex metric remix on hypem. i usually love his stuff too, and i have to say he's really developed his sound. the heavy is giving way to the funky. the original and the remix are totally different tracks and both totally ballin. rarely is there a remix on the same level as the original AND vice versa. download the remix, buy the original, watch the music video (with all american bruce willis) below.
