It's a steal!

○○○○○
FOR their fifth studio release, Washington DC-based trip hop duo Thievery Corporation are about to go global.
Sadly it's unlikely to be global in a Baby One More Time way - instead the group have enlisted the help of international talent ranging from Brazilian vocalist Seu Jorge to Afrobeat artist Fela Kuti to Indian sitarist Anushka Shankar for their latest LP, Radio Retaliation.
Melding trip hop, hip hop and dub with a world of other influences, the album is political without aggression, and without losing their trademark chilled out charm.
In short, Radio Retaliation is one i'd recommend you tune in to.
