The Temple of I & I

Thievery Corporation

Thick Jamaican dub recorded in Port Antonio. Deep basslines, conscious lyrics, and a humid, late-night atmosphere that feels both ancient and modern.

February 10, 2017 · Eighteenth Street Lounge Music

Find on Amazon

A heavy, humid blend of spiritual meditation and sharp social defiance.

Moments Worth Listening For
The way the bassline in 'Letter to the Editor' drops with a physical weight that anchors the sharp social critique.
The ethereal, space-echoed transition halfway through the title track that feels like a spiritual ascent.
The sudden clarity of the acoustic guitar plucking against the dense dub haze on 'Love Has No Heart'.
