Superman

When i heard Gnarls Barkley on the radio, i thought they were pretty genius.

Then when i downloaded The High Road by Broken Bells and Two Againt One by Danger Mouse & Danielle Luppi
 as free downloads on iTunes, they quickly became two of the most played on my iPod.



When i fell in love with Little Girl by Danger Mouse and Sparklehorse and realised that i did not know who either of them were, i did some Googling. And uncovered music's Superman.


Brian Joseph Burton, better known as Danger Mouse, is so talented its mental.He rose to prominence when he mashed up Jay-Z's The Black Album with instrumentals from The Beatles' White Album for his The Grey Album.


He's produced artists as awesome as Gorillaz, Beck, and worked on that brilliant Black Keys album.


He was nominated Producer of the Year Grammy  five times (and deservedly so) (2005, 2006, 2009, 2010, 2011), and won the award in 2011. (Finally!)
Hell, he even collaborated with Banksy!

Whatta.
