Here's a movie that had a soundtrack that was filled with good tunes which helped break a couple of bands to a wider US audience...I saw a copy of it in a store recently and it made me think of the film itself which I reviewed a while back...thought I'd throw it online, since the eZine I wrote it for bit the dust, here's the review and blah, blah, blah...In Garden State Andrew "Large" Largeman ...

I think there is plenty reason to postpone our trip to the west coast in order to hopefully attend The Vegoose Festival. Rage would be reason enough in my book but also Thievery Corporation. Completely different from one another and I love shows with a line up from different styles of music. Thievery will appear with their full live band on Saturday October 27th in Las Vegas, NV alongside su...

Unsolicited Endorsement: Rhapsody Ibiza 30GB mp3 Player the Cure for iPod Envy?
about 1 year ago
Blog post image preview

This ugly little player has cured my iPod envy. I can now return my wife's 30 GB iPod to her and retire my little 8GB Sansa Rhapsody. This has been out for awhile but turned up in the NY Times Circuits tech column recently.The beauty of this beast is wireless downloads for Rhapsody for "To Go" subscribers. It really works -- you can't be too far away from the wireless source, but I don't ha...

Sunday Under The Ski Mask : Radio Retaliation Presented By Thievery Corporation
about 1 year ago
Blog post image preview

So I decided to gravitate away from the cover tune today and towards the Eighteenth Street Lounge or at least towards ESL Music and the Thievery Corporation's newest release: Radio Retaliation. This release is as intense as their previous albums (The Mirror Conspiracy and The Richest Man In Babylon topping my list of favorites). Seu Jorge, Sleepy Wonder, Notch, LouLou, Femi Kuti, Anushka Shan...

Ayahuasca... and Yedayed

"Ayahuasca":http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ayahuasca is a psychotropic drug used in South America by shamans in religious ceremonies to induce transpersonal experiences. Some of the experiences sound wonderful (plants speaking directly to you, instant healing), some perhaps a little frightening (vomiting black snakes, and um, bug people)... but all are ultimately transformative.

Not Everything Coming Out of DC Sucks

Blog post image preview

The Thievery Corporation hails from Washington, DC, the contemporary world's Babylon. They're the dub/acid jazz production duo of Rob Garza and Eric Hilton and The Richest Man in Babylon came out on their own label in 2002. The visual images are very much in sync with the band's political proclivities-- if not their beats (I'm still learning).

Saturday Track: "Heaven's Gonna Burn Your Eyes"

Today's song is one of my favorites from Thievery Corporation. It's the opening track from The Richest Man In Babylon. Thievery Corporation is a group I got turned on to in college (aka the glory days of downloading). Their The Mirror Conspiracy is one of my favorite albums and the first ringtone I ever bought was the song "Lebanese Blonde." Enjoy "Heaven's Gonna Burn Your Eyes" and have a ...
