Our Take

Thievery Corporation's latest offering, "It Takes a Thief," is a delightful cocktail of musical genres that will leave you feeling like a sophisticated spy on a mission to save the world. The duo's signature blend of trip-hop, dub, and world music is as smooth as a dry martini, with just the right amount of spice to keep you on your toes. From the hypnotic beats of "Sound the Alarm" to the sultry vocals of "Radio Retaliation," each track on the album feels like a secret rendezvous in a smoky underground club. The production is top-notch, with layers of lush instrumentation that wrap around you like a warm embrace. The standout track, "False Flag Dub," is a masterclass in sonic espionage, with its pulsating bassline and eerie synth lines creating a sense of impending danger. It's the kind of song that makes you want to throw on your best trench coat and go out into the night, ready to take on whatever challenges come your way. In conclusion, "It Takes a Thief" is a must-listen for anyone who loves their music with a side of mystery and intrigue. Thievery Corporation have once again proven themselves to be masters of their craft, and this album is a true testament to their talent. So go ahead, pour yourself a drink, turn up the volume, and let yourself be transported to a world where the only currency is coolness. Trust me, you won't regret it.

Thievery Corporation

THIEVERY CORPORATION: Masters of Musical Mischief If you were to stumble upon a clandestine meeting of musical minds, chances are you would find Thievery Corporation at the helm, orchestrating a symphony of sound that is equal parts seductive and subversive. This enigmatic duo, comprised of Rob Garza and Eric Hilton, have spent the past two decades infiltrating the airwaves with their signature blend of trip-hop, dub, and electronica, creating a sonic landscape that is as intoxicating as it is innovative. Hailing from the eclectic musical melting pot of Washington D.C, Thievery Corporation have made it their mission to defy categorisation, seamlessly blending elements of world music, jazz, and bossa nova into a heady concoction that is uniquely their own. With a discography that reads like a passport to the globe, they have travelled far and wide, collaborating with an eclectic array of artists that range from reggae legends to Bollywood superstars. But don't let their laid-back vibes fool you - behind their groovy beats and chilled-out melodies lies a political consciousness that is as sharp as a razor. From critiquing capitalist greed to exposing the underbelly of globalisation, Thievery Corporation are not afraid to tackle the big issues, all while making you want to dance your troubles away. So if you find yourself in need of a musical escape from the humdrum of everyday life, look no further than Thievery Corporation. With their intoxicating blend of beats, basslines, and political commentary, they are guaranteed to steal your heart and leave you begging for more.
