Special Edition of the classic Thievery Corporation release includes 2 bonus tracks and enhanced cd format. Includes the heavy.com edit of "Shadows Of Ourselves," recorded live at New York’s Irving Plaza. This highly anticipated follow up to Sounds From the Thievery Hi-fi has left both critics and audiophiles delighted with Thievery Corporation's expert treatment of bossa nova, dub, and downtempo. Featuring lush vocals by Bebel Gilberto, Pam Bricker, Lou Lou, and See-I, The Mirror Conspiracy is a fantastic statement from ESL Music.
"...their remix work since then has since established them as leaders of the pack. And true to its name, the Corporation surreptitiously lays down overdubs of keyboards, congas, and percussive instruments to piece together a darkly beautiful piece of music in The Mirror Conspiracy." - Wall of Sound
"The only thing snappier than Rob Garza and Eric Hilton's Armani suits and Bruno Magli shoes is the suave, downbeat dance tracks the Washington D.C. duo creates as Thievery Corporation. The pair's top-shelf aural cocktails, which involve a smooth mixture of dub reggae, trip-hop, acid jazz and Middle Eastern musics, have been fueling the fires of backroom lounges and dimly lit bedrooms since the pair's first singles emerged in 1996. The Mirror Conspiracy, TC's long-awaited sophomore album, raises the temperature of the mix by melding the synthetic serenity of lush keyboards with the warm hues of live strings, brass, percussion and the pipes of a host of vocalists..." - CMJ
