New Music: Broken Bells

Danger Mouse - the producer behind Gnarls Barkley, Gorillaz' Demon Days and Beck's Modern Guilt, has teamed up with James Mercer out of The Shins.

Together, they are Broken Bells and they've made an album that smushes up hip-hop, electronica and soft rock, producing an all-new musical genre which I am calling Hilectrosoft. Or Hoptronirock. Or Rock 'n' Ron [that's enough of that, thank you - ed].

It's not out til March, but here's a preview track, called The High Road. It's nice.
