Deltron 3030 is a supergroup of hip-hop artists, composed primarily of producer Dan The Automator, rapper Del tha Funkee Homosapien and DJ Kid Koala, though their work features many other artists as well, all taking on various futuristic pseudonyms. Their debut CD Deltron 3030 is a concept album set in the year 3030 that tells of Del’s alter ego Deltron Zero’s fight against huge corporations that rule the universe. The lyrics are characterized by extravagant allusions to futuristic outer-space cliches and astronomy.
The band and album can also be viewed as a more hip hop-oriented precursor to Damon Albarn and Dan the Automator’s later, better-known project, Gorillaz, which also features vocals by Del Tha Funkee Homosapien and scratching from Kid Koala. Some also see this album as a successor to Kool Keith’s Dr. Octagon project, as both albums were produced by Automator and both saw the release of an instrumental version.
Among the featured artists on the album:
*Dan the Automator as “The Cantankerous Captain Aptos”
*Del Tha Funkee Homosapien as “Deltron Zero”
*Kid Koala as “Skiznod the Boy Wonder”
*Cameos by Damon Albarn, Sean Lennon, Prince Paul, MC Paul Barman (as Cleofis Randolph the Patriarch) and many others.

I hope they release the album this year. Any year before 3030 would be fine. xD

I just read that it's supposed to come out this spring. Sounds a bit suspect because we surely would have a confirmed release date by now if that was the case. I personally hope it drops in the summer.

Ok. They should finish Event II. Guest stars would (dream list) include Prince Paul, Kool Keith, MF Doom, Q-tip, De La Soul and also: Sister Souljah, QueenLatifah and Flavor Flav. From non hip hop why not Axl Rose (haha for chinese democrazy) and some of the players on 3030. Also Dr Dre. Might make him finish Detox.... [3435436435]
