ELECTRONIC LOVE: Washington D.C.-based d.j. duo Thievery Corporation will be coming to the Paramount for one night only. Known for their "acid jazz" cocktail lounge sound and progressive worldly beats,they are definitely one of those groups you may think you've never heard, but once you've listened to, you'll recognize. One of their most popular songs, "Lebanese Blonde", became a hit after it appeared in a little but well-known movie, Garden State, and it is used frequently in intros on radio stations such as KEXP and NPR. We guarantee this to be great for a date night, and hopefully some movin' and shakin'.

If you like DJ Shadow or Thievery Corporation, then Chop Suey will be the place for you tonight. It's not that he's playing there, but Mocean Worker is and frankly we think they sound alike (which is a good thing). Mocean Worker does that whole collage of sounds to make dancey music thing that usually doesn't work, but in this case it does. Plus, you can look smug when you realize where one of his samples is from, and who doesn't love a music fan standing in the corner looking smug.
