Tim Sweeney and his weekly radio show Beats in Space has been turning me on to new and unreleased music for quite some time now, but when guest DJ Kid Koala played this unreleased collaboration including himself, Damon Albarn and Dan the Automator, I was definitely taken aback. Sure I’m a sucker for anything Albarn, but this demo is nothing short of awesome. Automator’s smooth beats and soulful samples and Koala’s classic record scratching combine for something of a Deltron reunion with Albarn doing the vocals. Not sure when this was recorded or if a project is currently in the works, but this demo gives me hope for future Albarn endeavors.
