The gold-colored vinyl reissue of Danger Mouse's "From Man To Mouse" is a harmonious marriage of artistry and sonic innovation. It's not just an album; it's a multisensory experience that pays homage to the fusion of hip-hop and electronica. From the gleaming vinyl to the thought-provoking cover art, this reissue is a must-have for those who appreciate the intersection of music and visual artistry. It's a nostalgic journey that transcends time, making it a treasure for both avid collectors and those discovering Danger Mouse's genius for the first time.
From the timeless appeal of Big L's "Put It On" to the introspective tones of Danger Mouse and Murs' collaboration, each track on the compilation has its own standout moments. The remix of Super Furry Animals' "Lazer Beam" and the melody-infused "Somersault" by Zero 7 further showcase the versatility and creativity embedded in this collection.
The cover artwork was designed by renowned artist Banksy. This cover is a reproduction of his stencil titled "What Are You Looking At?" done at London's Marble Arch. Banksy returns again and again to the theme of constant surveillance, in this case questioning what a CCTV camera pointed at a concrete wall can achieve other than confirming that we are constantly being watched.
