Wednesday, 30 March 2011
Written by Jon Stickler
Featuring vocals by Jack White and Norah Jones. United by their shared passion for classic Italian film music, Danger Mouse and Italian composer Daniele Luppi created the 'ROME' album over an intense songwriting period using vintage equipment and original musicians from films such as The Good, the Bad and the Ugly and Once Upon a Time in the West.
Every effort was made to replicate the recording practices of the 1960s/70s golden age. For all its cinematic qualities, what follows is a complex, nuanced pop record with intensity and darkness as well as uplift and light.
It’s an ambitious work with a uniquely modern sound that has been achieved through traditional, vintage processes. It is, above all, a fully realised album, perfectly formed and hauntingly beautiful. Check out a trailer for ROME, including interviews with Danger Mouse, Daniele Luppi, Jack White and Norah Jones below.
