One evening dance aficionado Eric Hilton was out in Washington DC enjoying a casual drink when he bumped into Rob Garza. Several cocktails later, the two had become such fast friends, they decided to form Thievery Corporation. Their mix of downtempo house grooves was so smooth and tight that they quickly found fame on the electronic circuit. The duo released their most recent album, The Cosmic Game, which featured the Wayne Flaming Lips Coyne-fronted Marching the Hate Machines (Into the Sun), to much acclaim in 2005.
