Thé Au Harem D'Archimède

Thé Au Harem D'Archimède is a 2004 studio album by Ricardo Villalobos. It was released by Perlon on LP and CD.

The album's French title, which translates into English as "Tea In The Harem of Archimedes," is a reference to the Mehdi Charef book Tea in the Harem, as well as a pun on the French phrase "Thereome D'Archimède," which is also the title of the album's four track. "Thereome D'Archimède" translates into English as "Theorem Of Archimedes," and refers to Archimedes' principle.
