This Sound Existed Before Gorillaz

MUSIC THAT MATTERS – “Lyric of the Day”

(Music Cut #1)

One of my favorite albums…
was released on April 21st, 1992.

The Soup Dragons – Hotwired.

(Music Cut #2)

Lead Soup Dragon Sean Dickson was an early user…
of the Suzuki Omnichord –

an electronic instrument that almost looks like a toy.

And he used it all over this album.

Years later, people said it sounded like Gorillaz —
like what Damon Albarn was doing.

But remember – this album came first Hotwired

By the way – today, Sean Dickson is still making music —
on the London house scene as HiFi Sean. Be sure to check him out!

LYRIC OF THE DAY:
“Forever now
This could be so everlasting
This could be like nothing else.” – The Soup Dragons “Everlasting”

Hotwired is 34 years old.
