The Dust Brothers were among the preeminent producers of the 1990s, helming
 records for everyone from Beck to Hanson while influencing countless others with
 their signature cut-and-paste marriage of hip-hop and rock. Not to be confused with
 the British production duo the Chemical Brothers, who began their career under the
 same name before receiving a cease-and-desist order, the Los Angeles-based Dust
 Brothers were Mike Simpson and John King, who met in 1983 while working at the
 Pomona College radio station. They originally teamed to DJ at parties, and by the end
 of the decade scored a production deal with the Delicious Vinyl label. In 1989, they
 scored chart success producing debuts from rappers Tone-Loc (the monster hit "Wild
 Thing") and Young M.C., but their most distinctive early work was on the Beastie Boys'
 groundbreaking Paul's Boutique, widely acclaimed among the most innovative and
 influential albums of the period for its pioneering use of digital sampling. In the years
 to follow, the Dust Brothers emerged among the most sought-after remixers and
 producers in the industry, working on projects for everyone from White Zombie to
 Technotronic to Shonen Knife; they also founded their own label, Nickel Bag, and in
 1996 helmed Beck's extraordinary Odelay. Branching out even further, in 1997 they
 produced Hanson's chart-topping "MMMBop," as well as a handful of tracks from the
 Rolling Stones' Bridges to Babylon LP; a long-rumored Dust Brothers solo record
 remained on the horizon as well. -- Jason Ankeny
