| | DJ Danger Mouse - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | Brian Burton, better known under his stage name Danger Mouse, is a producer and DJ who came to prominence in 2004 by remixing The Beatles' White Album and rapper Jay-Z's Black Album to make The Grey Album. | | | While the Danger Mouse debut was well received by critics, he did not rise to fame until he created The Grey Album, mixing an a cappella version of Jay Z's The Black Album over beats crafted from samples of The Beatles' White Album. | | | Burton's first original releases under the name Danger Mouse were his collaborations with rapper Jemini, including the album Ghetto Pop Life, released in 2003 on Lex Records. |

| | When DJ Danger Mouse began garnering attention for "The Grey Album," his inventive remix of a cappella tracks from Jay-Z's "The Black Album" and music from the Beatles' eponymous 1968 album commonly known as "The White Album," it was always a question when -- not if -- his unauthorized project would be shut down. | | | DJ/producer Danger Mouse married vocals from Jay-Z's recent The Black Album with beats made from the Beatles' classic The White Album to create The Grey Album. | | | While DJs and producers have created other hues of The Black Album, such as The Brown Album and The White Album, don't expect those to be pulled from shells. |

| | Danger Mouse will aim to rupture musical boundaries with his first solo album (sans rap partner Jemini, with whom he released the 26-inch EP and Ghetto Pop Life in April); expected next year, one hopes it will be as creatively fearless as The Grey Album. | | | Danger Mouse's The Grey Album didn't just catch fire with the public, it burned down the established principles some feel unfairly work against hip-hop and the techniques (sampling, namely) that guide the music. | | | However unintentional the impact of The Grey Album, Danger Mouse remains loyal to his creative instincts, even as EMI Music, which controls the Beatles' catalog, monitors his every move. |

| | Danger Mouse works with a simple, brilliant premise: he remixes Jay-Z's recent Black Album by using samples solely from The White Album. | | | A familiarity with the Beatles' version certainly doesn't detract from Lewis's cover, but it's not a prerequisite either – the mark of a good cover/remake is that it nods back to its progenitor but still stands on its own. | | | Danger Mouse's Grey Album sets itself apart far from the pack. |

| | Millionaires Making People Smile, by Jeffrey Veen |
| | There was a guy from the Atlantic Records, another guy from Apple who works with iTunes, Michael Weiss, the CEO of Streamcast (who makes the p2p app Morpheus), and DJ Danger Mouse, of "Grey Album" fame. | | | There was a panel at the Web2.0 conference today discussing the music business, and the implications of current digital trends on that industry. | | | There was a bunch of pretty uninspired discussion about copyright and how hard it is for everyone to make money, and how stuff is getting stolen all the time and how can we protect it? |
