Basement Jaxx – Mermaid of Salinas

I sure hope this is a sign of things to come from the forthcoming full length Basement Jaxx album.  The last three albums have been a miss for me and really miss their unique blend of house that infuses sounds from all over the world, like their first two albums did (Remedy & Rooty).

 

Basement Jaxx – What A Difference Your Love Makes

press release:

Afurther glimpse of the forthcoming album that they’re currently busy crafting, ‘What A Difference Your Love Makes’ is, in Felix Buxton’s own words, “summer feel-good music for the club, the car, and the bar (b-q)”, introducing the stirring vocals of folk / soul artist Sam Brookes. Penned by the Jaxx with a hand from Chicago house legend DJ Sneak on a drizzly evening 6 months ago, the track is the complete antithesis of the weather conditions that day, although it has proved to go down a storm in recent live shows.
