Cinnamon Chasers

Cinnamon Chasers, solo project of Russ Davies, has strong musical roots and cites early pioneers like Giorgio Moroder, Vangelis, Jean-Micheal Jarre, and KLF as key influences and leading to modern talent such as Alan Braxe, Rex The Dog, Junior Boys…   Rather than create pretentious moody dance music Russ wants to create music that has an honest heart, and good intentions, and feels like a good friend. Cinnamon Chasers achieves this with a perfect blend of crisp electronics, Pop based song structure and melodies, and an Indie feel. Cinnamon Chasers have been gaining major notoriety this year with their tune and video Luv Deluxe, which just won the award at the 2010 SXSW Conference for Best Music Video. The video has been a major viral hit on the web with over a million views in the first two months of launch and is being screened on over 30 film festivals world wide.

GORILLAZ

Gorillaz are a British virtual band formed in 1998 by a collaboration between   Damon Albarn   of Britpop band   Blur   and Jamie Hewlett, co-creator of the comic book Tank Girl. They had the idea to create the band while watching MTV in their London flat and originally intended to call the project   Gorilla . The band is comprised of four fictional band members: 2-D (vocals, keyboard), Murdoc Niccals (bass), Noodle (guitar, vocals) and Russel Hobbs (drums). These characters only appear in animated form and are not alter-egos of real people, as is often mistakenly assumed. There is an extensive fictional back-story behind these band members, written by Albarn and Hewlett. The albums, several videos and their autobiographical book Rise Of The Ogre   all tell the saga.   Damon Albarn   is the only permanent musical contributor to the band, which is a collaboration between various musicians. Their style is broad, with a large number of alternative influences including   rock ,   hip-hop
