¡Gracias! Great band
Your the bestestest
those who are still here in 2024 let's gather this side
What else are y’all listening to
Vonn Boyd@@Jungloasis
Man!! That sitar gets into your bones. I was lucky enough to see them in vancouver years ago! It was the Best gig that I was ever at when it came to the vibes of the crowd! the band sounded like they were playing off a different frequency
give the sound engineer a bonus, this is some record quality sound.
@ape kaspank You have no idea what you're talking about. Not to mention there is more going on here than a " digital drumbeat" It's as if you didn't even watch the performance lol
Always! KEXP and NPR Tiny Desks - superior audio quality🤠
Always is with kexp, they have an amazing sound engineer.
@ape kaspank dude, what? There is nothing here to defend or "debate"
@ape kaspank Lmfao
That bass player has the moves and the grooves. 😎👍
My man on the percussion is not behind
That dude is a whole vibe.
i don't know him but i want his life
he sometimes performs completely naked (seriously, google it)
I never wanted to be friends with someone so bad until I saw him.
I akways thought this was an electronic group but here they are playing all the instruments - amazing!
They're beyond AMAZING
same. they added just enough electric clips to make it seem like they were. which was the popular thing at the time so makes sense. they have alot of other good songs.
Me too 😆
Thought the same about Air, until I saw the live. Love them both!
They're really amazing live too!
The bassist cured my depression :)
Saw these guys in Pittsburgh a few weeks ago. You should see the bassist with an entire stage to work with
I know right, he loves playing that thing
like 100 hundred yay!
Mine too! I'm watching these songs every night, with good headphones to feel the bass...
The bassist does't feel the groove. The groove feels HIM.
The bassist is feelin' it!
hell yeah :)
the only problem it is that he forgot to turn the volume on!!!!
Luís Rodrigues Exactly! I thought I was the only one thinking he was playing sub-sonic notes...
incredible!!!!
The bass volume is fine. Did you use headphones?
March of 2024 and I still keep coming back to this. Well done to KEXP and particularly well done by Thievery Corporation.
I feel fortunate to be able to listen to something this good effectively for free.
this is almost 20 years old.... imagine what else you can find.
how can you not automatically chair dance to this..
of course I'm chair dancing
as am i
Pretending not to...but, I mean...ADMIT IT!
Caroline - that is hilarious! I feel ya!
How can I find you on FB!? :D
The bass player looks exactly what I would imagine Thievery's bass player to look like.
The booger flick trick wasn’t called for 24:10
In some way looks like bass player from Metallica and though they both do it great!
He’s always barefoot
@@Tallturkimagine being so uptight that you care about something so little lol
@@ivanvakar1195i can sorta see what you are saying. but metallica bass player is of mexican and native american descent. thievery bass player's parents are from india. i used to see them often a decade ago and they always started the show with this first instrumental song and it featured him jamming around the whole stage in a suit and barefoot. very fun.
I've fell in love with the bassist 200 times already
Holy shit, how good are these guys?! 😮 So glad I found them! Apparently 20 years too late... better than never. Love them!
love this band. would love to see them in belgium once upon a time.
I do that also and it drives me crazy
Me too -- newbie. But it's not too late for TC. Their entire catalog is on Qobuz in high-res FLAC files, and they're playing all over. I've got tickets to see them at the Newport Jazz Fest this summer.
I discovered Thievery Corporation today and my life changed. This group is so damn good! Been playing it non stop since early this morning.
Me too. I stumbled across ‘no more disguise’ and now I’m hear just blown away at the diversity of the music. I am in love. Such artistic authenticity. It’s made my day for sure.
@@AG-wg1mt I jammed all their music while restoring my old boat trailer and felt like I went to a music fest!. Kinda looking forward to my hour commute to work today :- )
Totally get that. I feel that I landed on a new planet. Nothing is going to be as challenging with their energy in my ears. Bliss.
Lol you are fresh ☺️ welcome 🤗
Little late to the party, eh?
Love this. Gotta say too KEXP is a treasure chest of great live music. And they do it so well. Great sound, great camera work, thoughtful well informed hosts etc. A perfect storm of coolness. We could use way more of this sort of thing. Good for music. Good for musicians. Good for the soul. Kudos.
Well said. Thank you.
Yeah, it's a shame channels like these are so buried within UA-cam 'recommended video' algorithms.
Maybe I'm too critical, but this host is special- really.
Preach brother
Totally agree. A KEXP session has kind of become an unofficial seal of approval for the quality of a band.
Been a fan since the 90's, never get's old. 👍✌
How am I THIS late to the party?!?! I had NO idea about these guys. Thank you KEXP. As USUAL.
Got all their albums: Their music production is awesome! They are on the top three of my favourite bands Ever; with Massive Attack and Pink Floyd
You probably liked them when you heard Oceans 11!
Hope you got to see them live!
Could be worse...you could've JUST found this beautifulness today!🥴😂
I think you'd dig Vir McCoy if you like TCorp ✌🏽
the mixing on this is an absolute joy. its almost like a finished album.
the separation of all the individual instruments that I can still hear distinctly in my shitty car stereo… god’s work
not sure if you guys know the studio albums, the performance, the recording and the mix are all pretty bad, at some point the male singer frankly out of tune. Sound us muffled, balance is bad. Not sure how you can say the mix is "gods work", its electronic music with just two singers, about the easiest thing to mix v, a live like that (in a small room, with no battery or live instruments) should sound same as the album, assuming the performance and recordings are decent, which is not the case here.
@@lo2740 you got it. Also, they're all playing under the recorded, mixed track on the album. That's why everyone is praising the sound engineering. Because it's the album first and foremost you're hearing, then these guys in the studio waaay under. The vocals are live, however.
One of the most underrated bands of all time
This rendition of Amerimacka is even better than the album one
The sound engineer here is out of this world
Thievery Corporation is the most underrated band in America 🇺🇸
the bassist just melted the snow on my walkway
The bass player just made my hair grow 3 inches.
daveother guy in white shirt?
Thievery Corp is such a beautiful modern symphony.
Six years later, I return to this post. KEXP showing the Thievery Corporation inspired me to pick up a bass guitar. I only wish I had applied myself to music earlier. It has given me so much joy. Thank you all.
Even in the early 2000's, Bands like Thievery Corp, Portishead, Massive Attack were hard to discover on the web, great bands all of them. EDM is cool and all, but these bands and Downtempo in general will just be timeless IMO.
Yes!
The one word I got when reading your listed bands was 'artistry'. That word could be used to descibe each of those groups. You can tell it meant something to them other than money. Relevant then, revelant 10 years ago, and if dropped today... any of those bands hits would top charts and sell out venues as they did 25 yrs ago. Portishead was Lo-Fi before Lo-Fi was Lo-Fi
I found them all and so much more back then on Audiogalaxy RIP
@@trisha1434 iiiiiiii iiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiio iiio iiioi iio ii
You forgot tricky in that list of big trip hop artists.

thank you man !!
¡gracias!
nice one
Thanks so much! :D This set is making my day!
thank you!
Man!! That Bass player is the foundation here 🙌🏼 killer!
Best thing I heard in years. Just doscovred it in 2022. It is never too late!
Damn straight. I’m Lebanese and love world music. Thievery Corp is a GOAT
I saw them in concert back in 2011 with Massive Attack and Zero 7 in Hollywood. Sounded as good in person as it does on any studio recording. Which is an amazing feat since there are so many musical cooks in the kitchen at the same time.
You're lucky! What a combination you saw!!! ❤️
GOAT tier line up. If Portishead and Morcheeba were there it'd be an ultimate trip hop concert
Would love to hear that show.
Me too! Thievery Co. Back to back with Massive Attack, at Moogfest in Asheville 2011.. only problem was I drank a 40oz stiff Redbull-Vodka and dipped some Molly when we got in, I remember dancing, lights, great music, however, and unfortunately the whole show exists mostly as a psychedelic blur, and I barely remember it. :(
You saw them with Zero 7???? Whaaaaat!
When people ask me what's my dream ... my dream is to "work" at Kexp and host this kind of awesome shows live
Le Monde is so damn good, what a song!!
I've been listening to them for ages and never knew they were an American band.

🖤
💚💚
@@ProximaCentauri88 thank you, she was a beautiful soul, RIP
Fly indeed!
"...mastercard and visa won't allow me to breathe..." Fucking genius!
Wow! I had no idea these guys were from the US. I first heard them in the late 90s around the same time as Massive Attack, Portishead, Sphongle, etc; so assumed because of their "world" sound that they were from Britain.
I am quite surprised to hear music of this type and style coming out of the USA.
Excellent stuff!!
They don’t mention it, but being a DC band definitely lends to that- it’s one of the most diverse US cities and is such an incredible cultural mix swirling in the DMV region
Nice to see Shpongle mentioned! I wouldn't consider them trip hop/Bristol sound like Massive Attack and Portishead though - that'd be Morcheeba/Zero 7/U. N. K. L. E. if you haven't heard their stuff yet :) :)
@@diogeneslantern18 I never said that Sphongle were part of the Bristol sound. All I said was that I heard them around the same time as Massive Attack and Portishead. In fact, I never even said they are trip hop...But thanks for playing.
@@stevious7278 I knew you'd take offence but I didn't have the heart to edit my comment, and behold you fell for it hook, line, and sinker lol.
@@diogeneslantern18 Mate, you don't know me from a bar of soap because if you did you would know that I am not easily offended.
I didn't find your comment offensive; quite the opposite. I was astounded by your stupidity, and continue to be considering your lame attempt at covering your idiocy.
You may find that attempt at humour (I'm assuming that's what you believe it to be) works with those with an I.Q that matches their shoe size; but keep working at it. One day you may be able to entertain pre-school children...
Have a nice day licking windows. lol.
These guys are incredible. Consistently putting out intelligent grooves for decades
the guy in the white button up was LIVING
was? IS !
"...lots of sleep, no drinking, no drugs" = Thievery Corporation = Brilliance
Love, love Thievery Corporation. Started following them back in the 1990s in DC. Their music is timeless!
This has to be one of the best sets ever
I can't stop watching this... Really really good stuff, even now in 2020
Same, absolutely perfect
Thievery Corporation are timeless. All their music ages like wine, not bread
very good fusion i cant explain my feeling when i listen to this guys, even im a music lover, like i'm listen music for 20 years, and their records always surprise me
Even now? Was there some kind of a musical revolution in the four years since this happened?
@@maceosikes perhaps yes
I come here every day to listen to "Forgotten People" and inject the necessary energy from the Bassist.
Thank you!
so true, the bassist has a truly unique energy that I want more of
that bassline!!
Mr. Hannachi, then we probably doubbled the view count just ourself !
Yes! for sure We did

Its been like 10-12 yrs and I keep coming back to TC!
1990 was a hell of a time to be in my early 20's.
I've listened to Thievery for years, but just found KEXP in the last year. Such a great combo🤙🏽
I love how much these guys are totally digging their own stuff as they perform. Righteous.
This band is incredible, Eric Hilton is such an amazing drum musician, one love
Çá fait des années que j'écoute Thievery Corporation et je ne m'en lasse jamais,une musique qui appaise,á la fois complexe et accessible,de très bons musiciens.
Tout y est! Une profondeur et une variété sans pareil
The sound is just amazing. So crisp with none of the instruments overpowering another. I recently listened to Saudade again and gotta say these cats are fabulous
One of my favorite bands.
Psychedelic music, sometimes haunting, sinks very deep into the soul, grasping it, caressing it, at times titillating at times hurts with tough love.
אין כמו אימא בעולם!!!!!!!!!!
Holy shit! That first track is perfection! I was looking at the coolest person to have ever existed with each camera switch.
The bassist is all in, fully committed to the funk, body and soul.
The guy on the scitar-thing is so good I thought it was in my head.
Lose the vocals. Give them tambourines. Relistening to that first track again
Hearing them shoutout Fugazi and Dischord and citing them as a major influence for how they conduct their business is so awesome to me. Makes me realize how much impact one group of people can have on other groups, wherein those who are inspired by those originators go on to inspire thousands more. Being independent is a world movement
Found KEXP 3 days ago, well i didnt sleep too much since then.
Pizzadoboz
I know
Me too
Very similar story for me! Watching this music every night now.
Thievery Corp: The only Corporation that can expect any loyalty from me.
I had the privilege of seeing thievery live at the calgary folk festival and it was the absolute best concert I've seen these guys are the real deal. Music from the soul this is what its all about.
This set sounds really good! My late wife turned me onto these guys (and girls!) so many years ago. So glad she did! Love finding these shows during this crazy time.
They are all feeling it...but the drummer...he's in a really good place.
Just discovered Thievery Corporation. Reallllyyy enjoying their sound.
Finally some light for you in 2020.
i kind of envy your experience :}
be safe, have fun
It's never too late!!
Great band, See U in Zagreb, Croatia, july 2024..😊❤
I keep coming back to this one. The DC Scene..... Yes!!! Thank you KEXP and Thievery Corp. 🙂
Wow! Ive a couple of their albums and been listening to them for years - I had no idea they actually play instruments! I thought they were producers tweaking samples and knobs. Man, ya live and learn....
same...love them even more now. respect
We were all produced by tweaking knobs.
Gem of a reply!
SAME.
I've got about 5 of their albums and thought the same too. In fact I thought they were French - had no idea they were American!
Anyone who hasn’t seen them LIVE! MAKE IT HAPPEN!! Best show I ever experienced!!
Ahhh..perfection..I swear 20 years ago had some of the best music. Just magic.
Music isn't even real anymore :(
Always loved this bass player. He’s always perfect rhythm live.
Thievery Corporation are the best of the best... top of the wolrd
Rolando dcd yes!
compared to who ? If to follow your logic, I'm the best in the world and you are useless.
Damn I was in DC when they dropped their first album and had no idea they played instruments lol. I watched different members DJ at 18th street lounge for years, still no idea. Shame on me. Rob and the squad looking good and sounding good. Keep it Poppin’.
bro this is always a great stop to connect to great music 🎶👌
Congratulations! At 70 of age, refreshing and stimulating.
There is hope after all.
Hey Mr. bass player: will you marry me? You are so beyond cool and that bass line is legendary.
The DJ has the best job. Imagine the pleasure of listening to this, live, in a small space, great acoustic and no external noise. Amazing
Had the pleasure of listening to thievery corporation live in Richmond VA. Fantastic show. An amazing group of people.
William L
ópez Méndez ,
what is the dj for?
Thievery has been like the soundtrack to my life since Lebanese blonde.
a band for any moment, you put it on shuffle and you don't know which genre or culture you're gonna get :) a good friend of mine showed me Amerimacka a few years ago and that's when i fell in love... TC❤
If you haven't seen Thievery live; it is a must. One of the best live bands. Saw at the 9:30 Club-DC several years ago.
Saw them at NYC Pier 17, October 2019. Maybe the best live music event I've ever been to. These guys are real, talented artists. They went on to improv like half the songs. Classy crowd too.
I can not stop watching this.
Bassist and drummer are enjoying and feeling every note!
More than others. All thogether, great band and mussicians, also KEXP production is on very high level. Keepi it going! I would like someday to play in KEXP studio!
Back to writtig my music!
This was like a ride through India, to France, then Jamaica, and back!
god, i love thievery corporation. they make beautiful music.
I grow up on their music. Only shiny memories tide with them. Perfect sounding band! All instruments put together perfectly - a rare case in live shows.
EXQUISITE, so fortunate to feel like I am present with such perfection of sound and musical performance..Thank you
~ 2022 and Still Loving This
Dam instantly blew me back into one of my former lives !
That first one is something else , absolutely unreal
They seem so humble, fun, and chill. I've always enjoyed their music throughout the years and I'm glad they are still keeping it going. Here's to many more years of success.
I have been listening to thievery corporation for over 20 years! They never stop amazing me! Truly one of a kind. Rob and the guys rock! Thank you!!
What a fantastic set! So diverse and so soulful! Really amazing! Great job sound engineer, the mix was perfect!
Takes me back to when I use to jam to them at their spot in DC: The 18th St. Lounge
I'm seeing this crazy-incredible band in Chicago in October!
Everytime I watch these guys the better they get. Plus I love Loulou. What a voice and beautiful
Which one was she?
@@BePe-nm2ij the lady in the photo. Avatar
@@bobtis she's gorgeous
One of the coolest bands existing
They chose to perform some of their greatest songs; thankful for that.
I prefer the older stuff and was pleasantly surprised with the song selection.
Such a sick tight band. Love lou lou when she is singing for them ♡
Очень профессиональное и стильное звучание. А ситар в руках профи это вообще нечто волшебное!
11:57 one of the most beautiful piece of art ever created by humankind
no se si tanto pero es un buen tema
Agree it's absolutely beautiful, I cannot find the name of it though, could you please help?
@@rose_of_venus all that we perceive
Es una exageración.
Awesome band, awesome interview, awesome sound, awesome studio, awesome video
awesome me
I'm surprised Fugazi was mentioned...
Love this group! Thanks for posting this !
I've been listening and following these guys since 2000, also got my first chance to see them live in 2018, blew my mind it was an absolutely flawless performance and being 10 feet from them face to face was special. 😁
Such a peaceful, soothing music. Thank you Thievery Corporation and KEXP for the performance.
I played guitar for years... never moved.
When I picked up the bass and started learning songs, moving was all I did.
Ashish Vyas just became my new favorite bass player.
I'm feeling this...!
On the same level as the Bass Player.
Jim Kelly??? Yoo!
