Rome

Danger Mouse

A lush, analog homage to 1960s Italian cinema. Recorded in Rome with Morricone’s original session players, it feels like a lost spaghetti western soundtrack.

It's like a lost Ennio Morricone soundtrack featuring Jack White and Norah Jones.

A sophisticated, cinematic tension that feels like a mystery unfolding in a vintage Italian cityscape.

Moments Worth Waiting For
The transition from the haunting choral intro of Theme of Rome into the dry, crisp drum break
Jack White's gritty, distorted vocal delivery on Two Against One cutting through the orchestral tension
The shimmering, sun-dappled harpsichord and Norah Jones's breathy performance on Season's Trees
