Boards of Canada is generally considered to be illbient if you want to get technical. It's basically ambient music, but they use effects that makes their music sound aged and warped. At times they have a bit of a hip-hop beat going, but this is very rare they are usually more just an ambient band. Gorillaz have very little in the way of electronic elements in their songs. They are more alternative kind of like Blur (of course, Damon Albarn) at times and always hip-hop. They never move into trip-hop territory.
