While remaining true to their template of sophisticated, abstract electronica, Thievery Corporation continue to expand their sonic palette with 2008's RADIO RETALIATION. Dub, Indian raga, Brazilian grooves, and other international elements are folded into Thievery Corporation's trip-hop-shaded soundscapes. Guests include Afro-beat royalty Femi Kuti, sitar guru Anushka Shankar, go-go godfather Chuck Brown, and Brazilian singer Seu Jorge, among others, lending sparkle and variation to the wide-ranging set. At the center of it all is the knob-twiddling alchemy of Rob Garza and Eric Hilton, which achieves one of its most organic and compelling expressions on RADIO RETALIATION.
Industry Reviews
3 stars out of 5 -- RADIO RETALIATION is another intelligent and often joyous fusion of beats, world music adn what once would have been called trip-hop.
Always fans of sub and a good reggae beat, they up the ante by adding the sounds and instruments of Latin America, Africa and The Middle East for extra spice.
