Rome

Had Danger Mouse followed his original career plan, he’d have been making films and not albums now. Now the man voted “Producer of the Decade” has found a way to combine both passions, collaborating with Italian composer Daniele Luppi on this loving homage to epic spaghetti western soundtracks. A true labour of love, Danger Mouse has constructed Rome with painstaking attention to detail, using vintage instruments, the musicians from Ennio Morricone’s scores and the (specially-reformed) choir from The Good, The Bad and The Ugly. Vocals from Jack White and Norah Jones complete the picture, resulting in an album of windswept beauty that fans of Broken Bells and Dark Night Of The Soul will love.
