Danger Mouse & Daniele Luppi featuring Jack White
Danger Mouse, producer and musician extraordinaire (The Grey Album, Gorillaz, Gnarls Barkley, Beck, Broken Bells) has collaborated with Daniele Luppi, an Italian film composer.
Ensconced in a recording studio in Rome used for classic Italian films of the 60s and 70s and reassembling vintage recording equipment and musicians from the era, the two recorded songs live and straight to tape with no computers and 21st century effects and trickery.
Enlisting the vocals of Jack White and Norah Jones, the album Rome was born.

Broken Bells
Broken Bells is the collaboration between the great producer Danger Mouse and James Mercer (lead singer, songwriter and guitarist of the Shins). Danger Mouse thrilled us in 2004 with the Grey Album, his clever mash-up of the vocals from the Black Album by Jay Z and the White Album by the Beatles. His brilliance continued when he formed Gnarls Barkley with the out-of-box hit “Crazy”. The self-titled Broken Bells album has been out for a couple of months and continues to delight. Here are two as the Song(s) of the Day.
