Benji Boko wants Gorillaz collaboration - Female First

debut album, 'Beats, Treats, and all things Alone' in June - the dance musician is running on his ultimate musical goal of collaborating with the musician, wjho is a member of both Gorillaz and Blur.

He said: "I'd love to play with Damon Albarn and the Gorillaz - I haven't approached any of them yet because I'm not in a place for them to need to do that with me. I recognize that I'm not ready. Since then I've been running on bits and bobs with him and we're hopefully doing a few more collaborations and remixes so it's all good.

"I want to get a good remix and a very good album arsenal under my belt before I can do that because at the instant it feels like I don't take enough ammo. I want to get more ammunition and then I'll be in a place to get to those people but I definitely set my goals high and if Damon is reading - he needs to get in touch!"

The manufacturer has previously collaborated with a chain of artists including Roots Manuva, Beardyman and Deuce Eclipse - but he counts his biggest accomplishment to see as getting vocalist Maxi Jazz from Faithless on his single 'Where My Heart Is'.

He added: "I wasn't star struck by Maxi. He's such a decent and normal guy so that made it easy. We just hung out for the day in the studio and went to follow the expression one in Brighton - then went back to the studio and recorded before he drove back up to London.

"Since then I've been running on bits and bobs with him and we're hopefully doing a few more collaborations and remixes so it's all good."

Benji's debut album 'Beats Treats and All Things Unique' is out now.
