The Richest Man in Babylon is Thievery Corporation's third album, released in 2002 on their Eighteenth Street Lounge label.
Like Thievery Corporation's previous albums, The Richest Man in Babylon is electronic music with a downtempo aesthetic. The group mixes many different styles in an audacious fashion. Diverse influences such as dub, jazz, dance music, rap, reggae, and especially Indian music are boldly yet smoothly combined. The group's usual elements of echoing synth lines, heavy bass, compressed beats and acoustic instruments are present as well.
