He produced MGMT's Oracular Spectacular which is one of the best albums I've heard in a LONG, LONG time. I think he was in familiar Lips territory with MGMT, though the latter has more beat-pop for the kiddies to shake their rumps too. I think he pulled something off with Oracular Spectacular that is the mark of a truly great producer; the album as a whole piece has an aural identity that is present in all the songs. Yet, all the songs stand up on their own and kill.
