Dinner At The Thompson's

Here's something interesting you might or might not know.

Dinner At The Thompson's is a singer/producer duo based in France. They have recorded and released an album entitled Lifetime On Planet Earth in 2007 through 2Good.

The album is is an eclectic concotion of jazz, soul and funk, embued with influences of electronic, break-beat, and acoustic sounds, that leaves to the musically adept much to reflect on. Intentionally unpolished and sometimes imperfect recordings, give a live feeling to certain tracks - a rarity in today’s overproduced sounding albums. It’s apparent minimalist compositions and subtle harmonic changes bring rap, soul, and electro into real time - fresh, delicate, and rough all at once!

Fans who dig Portishead, this is an option dawg!
