I am a huge fan of Danger Mouse and find it surprising that there are still so many people who have never heard of him! Normally music producers are more in the background but his talents resulted in albums with The Black Keys, Beck, Gorillaz; he formed Gnarls Barkley and Broken Bells; he also has solo projects including Dark Night of the Soul. Edgier projects include the infamous Grey Album (Beatles White Album mixed with Jay Z's Black Album - banned and nearly impossible to find) and a collaboration with artist Banksy to remix a Paris Hilton cd.
Danger Mouse's new project is sublime - the album Rome just released online and includes Daniele Luppi's spaghetti western score, Jack White and Nora Jones.
