Summary: Eclectic, refreshing
Comment: I listened to this on a flight from Orlando to Seattle. Came home and bought it right away.
Customer Rating:
Summary: A-Z Cool
Comment: Owning most of their output, this is my favorite, followed by "Mirror Conspiracy" and then "Cosmic Game". Re-mixed tunes from obscure (to me) artists segue into one another for over an hour's musical world tour, Thievery-Style. Their musical perspective explores the best elements of each choice, moving on at the perfect time to keep you interested and wanting more. Unlike a lot of CDs, this set stays strong towards the end!
Stand outs:
'International Flight'
'Sea Groove'
'Cramp your Style'
'Re-return of the Original Artform'
'Expo in Tokyo'
'My French Brother'
Super-nice artwork and cover treatments.
Take this to a party only if you never want to see it again!

Summary: Lounge music
Comment: This CD is great! Just play, lay back and chill. The beats are melow and invigorating. I can't take this out of my CD player.

Summary: Another good heist...
Comment: Thievery Corporation is kind of like that friend you had growing up who had this really great record collection with songs you never heard before and had no idea existed. Always exasperated you would ask him 'Where in the world did you get that?' And then, of course, you'd have to get a copy of all of them in the form of a mix tape. That's pretty much what these guys do.
With access to songs most of us would never encounter, it's kind of like getting one of your friends' mix tapes. The production is slick and a tapestry is woven of music from around the world that you would otherwise not find in one place.
Like their other discs, this one continues to grow on me the more I listen to it. Great to listen to when you don't know what else to listen to.

Summary: A quality CD through and through!
Comment: in the last year or so, ive gotten into the whole House/Lounge/Downtempo/Chill Out genre of music. First I picked up a few of the Bargrooves titles and of course they were exellent. I had heard of the Thievery Corporation in the past, but didnt pay them much mind. I just picked up Both the Cosmic Game and this CD. All I can say is wow!!! I know these are all re-mixes but the Thievery Corporation is really good at what they do! Sorry, I know this review doesnt go into the depth that some of the others have, but im kind of new to all this. Anyhow, this CD wont disappoint!

Editorial Reviews:

Getting back to their turntables after the all-original work on 2002's The Richest Man in Babylon, Thievery Corporation dust off a collection of soulful wax for The Outernational Sound. Rob Garza and Eric Hilton have gone with an increasingly organic approach since their relatively electronic and modern Mirror Conspiracy, looking more back than forward. Happily, the duo has good taste. If that wasn't obvious after the collections on Babylon and 2001's Sounds from the Verve Hi-Fi, Outernational ends the argument. The record rambles through Brazilian jazz, afro-beat, and a kaleidoscope of funked-up rhythms that only a serious purveyor of world beat chill tunes could unearth. Their big ears, however, can't always keep up with their DJ skills; 20 tracks are smooshed into just over an hour, and you can feel Garza and Hilton sweating to make the different musical bloodlines congeal. You'll likely find yourself playing only sections of the record, depending on your mood. Still, whatever section you settle on should supply a hearty dose of satisfaction. --Matthew Cooke
