"Doncamatic" is a single by British alternative band Gorillaz. The track features British singer Daley.[2] The single was released on 21 November 2010 via digital download,[3] with a physical release following the next day. It charted at No.37 in the UK Charts and as of 2023, remains their last UK Top 40 hit.

The track's title refers to Korg's Disc Rotary Electric Auto Rhythm Machine Donca Matic DA-20. Released in 1963, it was the first rhythm machine manufactured by Korg.[4] A later version of this machine can be seen built onto the right side of the contraption behind Daley in the music video. The song, alongside the Joker remix are included as bonus tracks on the French CD reissue of Plastic Beach.
