Not strictly Basement Jaxx's fault, but Glamma Kid's appearance here led to me listening to 'Why' for the first time in years. Hoo boy, that is a bad song. (It also got me listening to the jiggy majesty of 'Sweetest Taboo' again, and I need to get married just to have that as the first dance. Hey laydeez.) Okay, scratch what I said about "worst" being "relative". Basement Jaxx's sophomore record Rooty has a pretty unbelievable range of hits. Some will range low on this list, others will be remarkably high, but they are all fan favourites. They're songs that people L-O-V-E. And then there is the last single from the Rooty promo cycle, 'Do Your Thing', a remarkably smug piece of car commercial lite-jazz. There are a lot of interesting approaches that the Jaxx hold towards eclecticism, and it's usually fascinating to hear how they bounce genres off one another beyond "dance music meets [blank]". Yet 'Do Your Thing' is defined by one simple equation and little else: ragtime joy times limp house beats equals ugh. It's pretty awful. What a Difference Your Love Makes" was released as a single on 30 September 2013. [24] The single's accompanying video was released on Vevo on 7 August 2013. It was directed by Damian Weilers and shot in South Africa. [28] On 1 May 2014, Basement Jaxx released a new song for the album called "Unicorn" on SoundCloud. [29] a b Panisch, Alex (26 August 2014). "Catching Up With Basement Jaxx". Out. Here Media Inc. Archived from the original on 22 September 2016 . Retrieved 17 September 2016.London dance duo Basement Jaxx, from Brixton, have been bringing the party for years now, since the late ‘90s. Their live shows continue to be eccentric, carnival-esque extravaganzas, featuring live musicians, dancers, crazy visuals and a revolving door or guest vocals. They are one of the bands who helped take dance music to the greatest of heights, laying down the foundations for live electronic music shows, which have been replicated year after year by young upstarts. Ratcliffe and Buxton first met in 1993 through a mutual friend in a pub in Clapham, London. The two bonded over an appreciation of New York house music. [6] They released their first extended play called EP1 via the British independent record label Wall of Sound, with the help of its founder Mark Jones. The album went on to sell over 1,000 copies and was played on American radio by Tony Humphries in New York City. For a house group that's put together a lot of builds in the past, the speed-ramping applied to Fanfare Ciocărlia's 'Asfalt Tango' is one of their most creative - and most fun. PopMatters ranked the album the 19th-best reissue of 2005. [6] Promotion [ edit ] Live 2006 Tour by Basement Jaxx

Glamma Kid's brief 'Fly Life' cameo suggested otherwise, rest assured that the gentlemen of Basement Jaxx know their dancehall and reggae culture. Did you know that Ratcliffe runs a sound system in his spare time, named after the dub reggae legend King Tubby? 'Jump and Shout' is the band flexing their bonafides, and the rubbery beat is the closest they've come to making a riddim. Slarta John keeps the song's energy high with his best wild-eye act – his manic howling of the title sounds as though he's trying to eat the microphone whole – but it raises a tantalising concept of Ratcliffe and Buxton shopping riddims to the Caribbean's finest. (I would kill to hear Baby Cham bug out over this.) As it stands, 'Jump 'N Shout' is a fun burst of energy. It's a lot less ornate than their bigger hits, but as raw as the group ever get in their escapades.
