"We took dark songs and made them darker" - Danger Mouse and Sam Cohen re-imagine the sounds of the early 60s
Danger Mouse and Sam Cohen tell Stuart how they produced their new record 'Resistance Radio: The Man In The High Castle Album' which features music inspired by the hit TV series The Man In The High Castle, which itself was inspired by the 1962 Philip K. Dick novel of the same name.
The novel is set in an alternative reality where the Axis powers, Nazi Germany and Imperial Japan, have won the Second World War. The album features covers of classic songs from the early 1960s by the likes of Sharon Van Etten, Karen O, Beck, The Shins, and Grandaddy as if they existed in that alternative reality.
