Thievery Corporation, “Saudade”. The Portuguese word saudade has many meanings and some say is the essence of bossa nova. A longing for something or someone, a contented melancholy, the presence of absence. It’s a vibe, and this record certainly has a bossa nova vibe. If one knew nothing about the Thievery Corporation duo of Rob Garza and Eric Hilton, and the genre stretching music they create and this record was just put on the turntable blind... one might think at first they are listening to some old bossa nova inspired quirky but amazing soundtrack from the 60’s... and they might never even guess this is from a well respected electronic/ dance duo... the best part it’s not the only one of their albums that could throw a stranger to their music for a loop.
