I feel the same way about the whole genre of Cumbia.  But that's because I'm completely ignorant to it and have absolutely no interest in it.

The echo-sitar is the best part. 9 thumbs up here.

Typically of TC, smooth sound, political lyrics:

Couleur de vie, couleur de joie
Où sont tes larmes, tous tes mots
Et puisque t'en as marre de voir
Tous les gens souffrir
Cette notion trop simple et naïve
Parvenir à vaincre une loi
Loi invisible, si injuste
Si injuste, si sombre

Vis ta vie, elle est si belle
Vis ta vie, c'est la tienne
Vis ta vie, sans mensonge
Vis ta vie, comme tu veux

Couleur de vie, couleur de joie
Où est ce feu philosophique
Ton esprit condensé, pulverisé
Subtilé par toutes tes larmes

Vis ta vie, elle est si belle
Vis ta vie, c'est la tienne
Vis ta vie, sans mensonge
Vis ta vie, comme tu veux

A little late, but if you haven't heard it, may I suggest "Mirror Conspiracy". A very solid album!

The bass line has the feel of a watered down "black magic woman", very sensual.

I would suggest both "Richest Man in Babylon" and "The Cosmic Game".  Both are exceptional.  Cosmic game has several guest musicians including Wayne Coyne, Perry Ferrell, and RPs favorite whipping boy David Byrne.  Down-tempo world grooves that only TC can create.  Enjoy!

The message concerned actually referred to another band, Sigur Ros, not Thievery Corporation.

See this band live. They stole the show at Lollapalloza last year in Chicago. The laid-back character of their studio stuff became this primal rhythmic party that had 1,500 people bouncing into the night!

Does RP ever play stuff by Sigur Ros or however you spell their name? They're a Norwegian band, however you spell Norwegian, and have been described as pink floyd mixed with radiohead. Their hit song was Starafleur I think...Theivery Corp reminds of me them, slightly.

Tricky, used to be part of Massive Attack. Maxiquaye - it's a stunning album, of find "Ruff Guide" - it's kind of a best-off.. album.

Quantic and Bonobo also get my vote, though they're not strictly Trip-hop, if you like Corp et al., you'll like them.

If you want really chilled trip-hop/hip-hop check out "Carboot Soul" or "Smoker's Delight" by Nightmares on Wax
