Reminisce about the time Danger Mouse and MF Doom collaborated by getting this limited re-press of this never to be repeated collaboration. MF Doom performs raps over music made by Danger Mouse mainly from old cartoon shows on an album which is the perfect late night deep listen. Goofy but touching neither artists has done anything quite like it since.

“The Mouse and the Mask” was produced by super-producer Danger Mouse. The album features CeeLo Green (also of Gnarls Barkley), Talib Kweli, Ghostface Killah, Money Mark and the cast of cult cartoon show Aqua Teen Hunger Force and remains MF DOOM’s best selling album to date.

Lex has a history of lavish packaging but this remains one of the lushest sleeves in the catalogue. Design by EHQuestionmark, the outer sleeve is made from thick translucent textured plastic with DOOM’s mask printed on the cover, and mouse ears on each side of the mask forming a pattern that looks like a Rorschach test (a technique reused in another Danger Mouse project six months later).

The inner sleeves, visible through the outer at first glance pattern based on an Ishihara test, but inside the circles in the pattern are tiny icons depicting different disasters – climate change, acid rain, holy war, nuclear leaks.
