Reviews & Discussion
Dub rhythms and lounge atmosphere is the name of the game on this soulful release. While some may prefer instrumental tracks such as "Indra" and "Air Batucada" over songs with lyrics like "Lebanese Blonde" or "So Com Voce" (or vice versa), Theivery Corporation's use of sublime percussion, jazzy instruments, and smokey pads create a feast for the sonic palette any fan of downtempo can enjoy.
