After an intense songwriting period - writing separately at first, and then together as songs evolved - Danger Mouse and Daniele Luppi traveled to Rome in October 2006, united by their shared passion for classic Italian film music. First, they re-assembled the original musicians from the classic Ennio Morricone scores. Their next step was finding two lead vocalists who could do justice to the songs - enter Jack White (White Stripes) and Norah Jones, starring on 'Two Against Nature' and 'Black' respectively, both from the album's debut single.
In a digital age where music is produced, consumed and discarded in the blink of an eye, Rome is brilliant anachronism: a defiantly analog album that took five years to perfect and has been made to pass the test of time.
