Thievery Corporation
Washington, D.C. based recording artist and DJ duo, Thievery Corporation makes abstract, instrumental, mid tempo dance music whose classification falls somewhere between trip-hop and acid jazz. Their music mixes elements of dub, acid, jazz, indian classical and Brazilian (bossa nova) with lounge aesthetic. Featuring the production skills of Rob Garza and Eric Hilton, Thievery Corporation has released several albums, starting in 1996 to as recently as 2014. Their latest release, Saudade, turned their music in a different direction, being a bossa nova-based effort with guest vocalists like LouLou Ghelichkhani, Karina Zeviani and Elin Melgarejo.
