Title: Deltron 3030 Detail Event II (new album)
Post by: Elano The One And Only on July 10, 2013, 09:44:33 PM

Deltron 3030-- aka Del the Funky Homosapien, DJ Kid Koala, and producer Dan the Automator-- have detailed Deltron 3030: Event II, their first album since their self-titled debut in 2000. It contains a truly weird list of contributors: In addition to Damon Albarn, Mike Patton, the Lonely Island, Rage Against the Machine's Zack De La Rocha, Emily Wells, and Jamie Cullum, there's also appearances from actors David Cross, Amber Tamblyn, Mary Elizabeth Winstead, and Joseph Gordon-Levitt, and chef David Chang.

Del the Funky Homosapien detailed the concept behind the album in a press release:
"This time, the album has a specific story. The Deltron world has gone too far with technology. Everything's destroyed, and you just see the remnants of our technology. The streets are run by criminals, the police are outnumbered and outgunned, and we're like pirates, running rogue, doing what we do to survive. That's the scene of it. We're trying to be as literary as possible while dealing with a musical format. I don't know if you could even categorize this as a hip hop album - it's more like a rock opera, but using rap."

Event II is out October 1 via Bulk Recordings. The video trailer features album opener "Stardate" and Joseph Gordon-Levitt-- check it out below.
