On The Cosmic Game, their fourth studio album, released by ESL Music, Rob Garza and Eric Hilton of the electronic duo Thievery Corporation took the producer chairs themselves. The Richest Man in Babylon had done well for them in 2002, and that success bought a higher grade of guest this time around.
The album plays like a crate-digger's world tour: club grooves, future-bossa sway, breakbeats and even some rock muscle, all floating on the dub, acid jazz, reggae and Indian and Middle Eastern colors that are the duo's stock in trade. It is trip hop at its most cosmopolitan, lush and unhurried, music for the hour when the party starts to thin out. It reached number 74 on the UK Albums Chart and sold more than 151,000 copies in the United States.
