Vi avevamo già annunciato l'uscita di un nuovo modello di Converse realizzato da Jamie Hewlett, fumettista e illustratore, co-fondatore dei Gorillaz. Ora la stessa band ha svelato dalla sua pagina Facebook che per il nuovo episodio di "Three Artists. One Song", come sempre sponsorizzato dal noto brand di abbigliamento sportivo, la collaborazione sarà con James Murphy degli LCD Soundsystem e Andre 3000 degli Outkast . Il singolo in uscita si intitola "Do Ya Thing" e sarà disponibile a partire dal 23 di questo mese in [...]

If you couldn't tell, February has been a solid month for Gorillaz - at least so far. They don't have a new album to support (although, it never hurts to revisit 20102s Plastic Beach ), but they're popping up in unlikely places: on vodka bottles , alongside James Murphy and Andre 3000 , and on pairs of Converse . That latter appearance especially concerns you. We're giving away one (1) pair of Gorillaz-themed Converse, so if you've been in the market for new kicks - or, you mucked [...]
Professor Kliq is an electronic producer from Chicago, Illinois and yesterday he decided to release a brand-new remix for the Gorillaz' track "Feel Good Inc." Although I'm not too familiar with his sound, Professor Kliq had me from the beginning when he wrote in the track's description that he's not trying to "compete with the direction that a lot of dance and electronic music is going. Thusly, this [remix] is a lot more disco, a lot more cinematic." Gorillaz - Feel Good Inc. (Professor Kliq Remix) Always a fan when artists [...]
Got contacted a few minutes ago via email from the Chicago-based producer Professor Kliq , who haven't before that been caught in my radar. But after reading his email and hearing out his remix for Gorillaz's track Feel Good Inc , that fact will be changed. What he brings to the table is a funky & dreamy version of the said track. A very good combo of playfull leads & dancewilling bassline! And I love his attitude in his statement for this remix that he rather do music in his own way than follow in the path of [...]

In a rare act of an artist not selling out, UK electronic outfit Gorillaz have slammed the doors shut for bubble gum teen tv show ' Glee ' being able to cover their songs. Currently touring North America lead singer, Damon Albarn says he's not interested in letting the hit show perform covers of his groups songs. "We wouldn't let that happen," Albarn said in an interview with the Associated Press last week. "And not that they've asked us because they haven't, and now they definitely won't," he continued with a laugh. In [...]

Jamie Hewlett designs the ABSOLUT London bottle.

Right above is the result of ABSOLUT vodka's collaboration with Gorillaz artistic mastermind Jamie Hewlett. As Branding Magazine reports, Hewlett was given the task of designing a bottle for the company's London brand. What he came up with is a "unique take on London's style and fashion pioneers over the past 200 years" featuring seven characters from the city's past, including the Dickensian, the 18th century dandy, the punks, the mods, the 50s pinstripe, the 60s chic, and the 80s casual. The limited-edition bottle will be available at UK department stores Selfridges and Harvey Nichols [...]

Finalmente se dio a conocer la rumoreada colaboración entre Gorillaz y Converse , para formar parte de la campaña anual Three Artists, One Song , cuya edición de este año fue bautizada como DoYaThing . En esta ocasión Damon Albarn , James Murphy y André 3000 unieron fuerzas para desarrollar un single que estará disponible como descarga gratuita en el website de Converse , el [...]

Since the whole idea of "selling out" is about as relevant and contemporary as woolly mammoths and the printed press, why not make a quid? Besides, nobody buys records anymore and staying in is the new going out. Anyway, that brief - albeit obtuse and conceited - rant aside, this is actually something I'm excited about. Jamie Hewlett (the visual side of Gorillaz) has already designed four trainers for Converse, so the pairing starts to make a lot of sense. To coincide with the four special edition trainers, Converse have [...]
