Danger Mouse is already quite busy in the new year. The musical auteur is working with British alt-pop trio the Shortwave Set on their upcoming album, tentatively-dubbed 'Replica Sun Machine.' The producer is adding a little bang to the psychedelic outfit's sound with the help of a 24-piece orchestra led by former child star-turned-musical genius Van Dyke Parks. Also, Velvet Underground's John Cale broke out the viola for 'Replica Sun Machine.'

Danger Mouse and Cee-Lo are also back in the lab working on new material for Gnarls Barkley's follow-up to their critically-acclaimed debut, 'St. Elsewhere.' Rumor has it that the two are recording in a secret studio location near Atlanta.

Fans can also check out Danger's work on the forthcoming Black Keys album, entitled 'Attack & Release,' and Martina Topley-Bird's new project, 'The Blue God.'
