This is what I listen to when I write. “Aspen Forest,” written by Damon Albarn 2D on tour in a hotel room, created on an iPad for The Fall. If you press play you will soon find out that this too will be your background music for writing! I only hate myself for posting this because there are no beautiful vocals by 2D, but when you’re writing something, the music should be instrumental. Now if you’ll excuse me, I must escape to the peaceful Aspen Forest to write things that will make you laugh.

Uhmmm…. The first Gorillaz album, our debut record, was more like Russel’s… like… lots of hip-hop, funk, and Cuban dub stars. Demon Days right, came more from Noodle and her dark doomy demos that she made, and all of her contemplations on the world ‘in a place of night.’ Plastic Beach came out mainly from Murdoc’s head, all of his mucky exploits and global collaborations… and this one The Fall, is mostly just me… something more gentle and just… well… it’s just me and an iPad really mucking about… trying out some stuff. Just looking at America and then tapping on the screen… I’m not really concentrating too hard on it… So, right, each album got all of us on it somewhere, but each time it’s… more of one of us than the others…. Well, that’s how I see it anyway.
