Music DJ duo Thievery Corporation picture (pic) and photo gallery, albums and singles covers pictures.
Formed: 1996 in Washington, D.C. Thievery Corporation is a Washington, D.C.–based production and DJ duo consisting of Rob Garza and Eric Hilton and their supporting artists. Their music can be characterized as downtempo electronica with influences of dub, acid jazz, Indian classical and Brazilian styles (such as bossa nova) fused together with a lounge aesthetic. Thievery Corporation is on the Eighteenth Street Lounge Music record label named after the swank DC lounge formerly owned by Eric Hilton, but several of their singles and EPs appear on the 4AD and !K7 labels. Several tracks from their 1999 DJ-Kicks compilation were used by Dockers as part of their "Nice Pants" TV ad campaign. In 2002, they released The Richest Man in Babylon on their ESL label. This fifteen track album is similar in sound and timbre to The Mirror Conspiracy and features performances by vocalists Emiliana Torrini, Pam Bricker, and Lou-Lou. The language of the lyrics to the group's various songs range from English, Spanish, French, Farsi, to Portuguese. This reflects the group's global feel and collaborative structure. In 2006, the group released Versions, a selection of remixes done by Thievery Corporation for Members: -Rob Garza. -Eric Hilton. |
