Deltron 3030, a pioneering hip-hop collective composed of Del the Funky Homosapien, Dan the Automator, and Kid Koala, has announced an exciting 16-date North American tour to celebrate the 25th anniversary of their influential debut album. The tour is scheduled to kick off on July 18 in Vancouver and will span several key cities, including Seattle, San Francisco, Los Angeles, Chicago, Toronto, and finally conclude in New York City on October 6. This anniversary tour not only echoes the group's legacy but also reconnects fans with the innovative blend of futuristic narratives and sophisticated lyricism that made their 2000 debut essential in reshaping hip-hop.

Performing their entire debut album live, Deltron 3030 plans to take audiences on a musical journey reminiscent of their original soundscape, set in the year 3030. This concept album was a groundbreaking release at the time, combining Del's imaginative storytelling as Deltron Zero, Dan the Automator's futuristic beats, and Kid Koala's creative turntablist skills. Their fusion of hip-hop with visionary themes set a precedent that many have followed. The tour is set to provide fans with an immersive experience, tapping into themes of identity, technology, and rebellion, perfectly encapsulating the spirit of their debut.

Additionally, Deltron 3030 has teased the imminent release of their long-awaited third studio album. There have been sporadic mentions of new material over the years, with the group alluding to a more whimsical and battle rhyme-influenced sound compared to their second album, “Event II,” which was released in 2013. Del the Funky Homosapien has hinted at this lighter approach, suggesting a return to the whimsical narrative style that characterized their debut. This new album has sparked interest among fans eagerly awaiting further innovation from the trio, known for their unique blending of musical and lyrical elements.

The significance of this tour is underscored by the group's commitment to reliving their debut album's sonic journey live, complemented by eclectic visuals and a full band. This provides an opportunity for long-time fans to indulge in nostalgia, while new listeners can experience the album's transformative power firsthand. Tickets will go on presale on April 23, with general sales starting on April 25. For those interested in commemorating this momentous occasion, tickets and exclusive merchandise will be available through their official website, offering fans a chance to partake in a historic celebration of creativity and collaboration.
