Temple Of I &

"The innovation, spirit and power of Jamaican music is a constant source of creative manna for us," vertelt Eric Hilton van DC-based electronische band Thievery Corporation over hun nieuw album The Temple Of I & I. "On the musical map, Jamaica is an entire continent. Frankly, we could have spent a year there, soaking up the vibes in the air and the strength and resilience resonating from the people. And for us, the only way to connect with this rich source of inspiration was to work in that environment - to feel the pulse of the place."The Temple of I & I is geïnfuseerd door de cultuur en het rytme van Jamaïca, en is een extensie van het dub-ethos dat Thievery hanteert sinds hun debuut EP, Sounds from Thievery Hi-Fi.
