19-2000 (Soulchild Remix)

19-2000 (Soulchild Remix) is a track featured on Gorillaz' 2001 single 19-2000 and subsequently as the 1st track of the 2002 compilation album G-Sides. It is significantly faster than the original mix and became the best-known version of the song, receiving the greatest share of airplay in the UK and Europe. A version of the 19-2000 (Music Video) was issued using the remix as its soundtrack.

Alongside the radio mix of "Danger - High Voltage!" by Electric Six, this remains one of the best-known remixes by the partnership of Stuart Bradbury and Damien Mendis, who had only recently teamed up as Soulchild having worked separately as remix artists for several years.
