• 1997 Debut Newly Remastered!

  When they met in the mid-1990s, Thievery Corporation’s Eric Hilton and Rob Garza instantly bonded over a shared passion for bossa nova and dub. This chance meeting in Washington, D.C. set the duo on a journey that begins in 1996 with the release of their debut studio album, Sounds from the Thievery Hi-Fi. Originally released in Germany before appearing in the US on June 7, 1997, the duo’s first album set the beat for a 20+ year dance through dub, bossa nova, trip-hop, electronica, acid jazz, lounge, and laid-back grooves.

  Sounds from the Thievery Hi-Fi is dedicated in memory of bossa nova pioneer Antonio Carlos Jobim. Guest vocalists include Pam Bricker and Bebel Gilberto.
