After barely a decade of working together, Rob Garza and Eric Hilton have seemingly done it all. As Thievery Corporation, they rewrote the book on so-called lounge music, tossing dub, trip-hop, jazz and world groove into a musical blender and serving up the results on a series of four extra-chilled studio albums and innumerable remixes and compilations. And as the founders and heads of the Eighteenth Street Lounge club and record label, they’ve created a small empire of like-minded artists, DJs and fans, based in their native Washington, DC but extending around the globe.

Now the Thievery guys appear poised to take their unique sound to an even broader audience. With an old song resurrected on the wildly popular Garden State soundtrack, and with their last album, The Cosmic Game, featuring guest appearances by the likes of David Byrne, Perry Farrell, and The Flaming Lips, the Thievery Corporation profile is getting higher by the minute.
