Like their debut album, this is an excellently produced album of sublime mid-tempo trip-hop. These summery grooves continually reference the breezier moments from Brazilian, Jamaican, French and Indian pop music.
Collecting Thievery Corporation's first four singles plus several new tracks, the album uses the sampler as its main weapon, constructing songs around pilferings from '60s reggae and pop. The effect approaches easy listening kitsch-core but retains an unsettling edge.
