The Mix

Hey there. I'm Harrison, future educator, former drummer, full-time student and part time artist. I post about a great many things. You can expect to see what I consider to be great art, great television, great music, great comics, great movies, great books, great nature, great God and great video games.

The strings and piano work in this song are bloody brilliant.

About 11 years ago this album called Gorillaz came out. I remember being 14 years old, watching the Clint Eastwood video on MTV and I remember it being the 1st time I listened to and actually enjoyed rap. Since then my hip-hop arsenal has been substantially more fleshed out, and before I get started, I’d like to thank Gorillaz for getting me into it.

So I think Damon Albarn is a musical magician. Is it just me, or has it been the case for any of you that when you 1st listen to a Gorillaz album it’s a bit disappointing? BUT THEN!, all of a sudden you’re giving it another try and you realize “This is the most awesome thing I have ever heard.”

With the 1st listen of Gorillaz, I didn’t like any of the other songs and now it’s one of my favorite albums.

With the 1st listen of Demon Days, I didn’t like how different it was from Gorillaz and now it’s one of my favorite albums.

With the 1st listen of Plastic Beach, it didn’t work for me and now I love it.

And now the new single with Andre 3000, I didn’t like it at first and now I think it jams. (the references in the music video are great btw, especially the little taste of “5/4” at the end.)

Anyway, in hindsight, I can’t understand what I didn’t like about the songs.

Again, Damon Albarn is a magician, yes?

P.S. Listen to “Every Planet We Reach Is Dead” right this instant. The strings and piano work in it are brilliant!

Alice Eve does a great American accent.
Also, an enjoyable interview.

Reggie Watts is an absolute genius.
