As Thievery Corporation, Eric Hilton and Rob Garza started working together in the mid-1990s, crafting a sound initially rooted in electronica, but deeply influenced by dub, Latin jazz, and bossa nova. Their atmospheric, low-key style has made the Washington, DC-based duo sought-after remixers as well as popular recording artists, and they've worked their sonic magic on everyone from Stereolab to David Byrne.

By 1999, techno stars like Carl Craig and Kruder & Dorfmeister had contributed to the series, and it was time for Washington DC duo Thievery Corporation to craft their own DJ KICKS mix. One of the finest offerings of the DJ KICKS series, this set maintains a rather low-key mood throughout, in keeping with Thievery Corporation's usual modus operandi. Nevertheless, the sounds on offer are wide-ranging, including everything from the old-school lounge sounds of Les Baxter to the dub stylings of Rockers Hi-Fi and the warm, glowing acid-jazz sounds of Jazzanova, all intermixed with the Corporation's own distinctive downtempo cuts.
