Big Audio Dynamite. You're welcome.

Sambadrome and E=MC² plz

Try Beck and Massive Attack. Beck was a major influence on the 1st Gorillaz album.

Beck also invented chiptune.

dr. octagon!

Yo La Tengo (I always wanted to do this, don't ask me about it).

Might want to try and look up other trip hop stuff as well. Off the top of my head I suggest Portishead, FlyKiller, Massive Attack, Tricky, etc.

I very very much second Portishead and Massive Attack.  Go for the albums Dummy and Collected respectively.

del the funkee homosapien, deltron 3030, is a bit later in his career, if you liked clint eastwood and rock the house, those were both rapped by del, this being a chip music site, might i suggest "proto culture" by the homosapien himself.  A 90's fakebit rap about videogames, surely looked over by "the scene"

the reason i recommended 3030 was that it shared an MC and the producer from the first album, so it sounds way more like the first gorillaz album than del's other stuff

big shout for Deltron 3030, that lp was like Gorillaz before Gorillaz. Plus it has Kid Koala doing DJ work, he's my (and my mums) favorite DJ.

even though 3030 is badass....it was slightly later, and way better.
also K-K-K-K-KID KOALA was the best live dj i have ever seen by far...and he was opening for cut chemist n DJ shadow

im jealous you saw cut chemist and dj shadow, and im rarely one of the guys saying that
