There is one album I listen to more than any other at Gizmodo HQ : Deltron 3030 . The futuristic hip - hop journeying is a collaboration between ( the mind - boggle lyrics of ) Del the Funkee Homosapien , ( unbelievable , epic beats from ) Dan the Automator , and ( the mad disk - spinning skills of ) Kid Koala . It ’s a musical pipe dream team .
The record album state the tarradiddle of Deltron and the Automator as they travel through space in the distant time to come , take in ill-tempered - species rap music battles and just generally being intergalactic badasses . There ’s really never been another record album like it , before or since . The beats lull you into a head - nod trance while they language take you on an escapade . It ’s had a place in my Desert Island Top 5 since it came out in 2000 . It was ahead of its time , and still is ( by a thousand years or so ) .
Del , Dan , and Kid began collaborate on a sequel record album back in 2005 , tentatively called Deltron Event II . It has been confirm that as of January 2012 at last , at long last , the album has been completed . It is expected to be out this year , possibly in May . I ’m actually giddy about it .
The original album ’s claim track in the video above is what casts us off on the journey . you could click it , or you could take my word that you desire to mind to the whole matter and tick off it out atSpotify , Rdio , Amazon , oriTunes . Enjoy the ride .
