‘The Richest Man In Babylon’ is the third studio album by American electronic music duo Thievery Corporation. It was first released in 2002 by ESL Music.
The album features contributions from Emiliana Torrini, LouLou, Pam Bricker and Notch, and features both electronic and live instrumentation.
The album combines influences such as dub, jazz, dance, rap, reggae and Indian music, and incorporates protest music into the group’s sound.
Debuting in the mid-1990s, Washington DC’s Thievery Corporation became one of the most popular acts associated with chilled out, lounge-friendly electronic music. The duo consists of Rob Garza and Eric Hilton, whose musical style mixes elements of dub, acid jazz, reggae, Indian classical, Middle Eastern music, hip-hop and Brazilian music, including bossa nova.
After a dozen highly acclaimed full-length albums, remix LPs, concert recordings and over two decades of incendiary live performances that have thrilled audiences worldwide, Thievery Corporation’s music and message is more relevant and important now more than ever.
