Basement Jaxx Artist Snapshot:

Felix Burton and Simon Ratcliffe started out as two British DJ's enamored of the sounds of '70s funk and '80s house. By the mid-'90s, the pair were turning heads with singles and remixes that used house as a starting point for innovative explorations of electronic dance music's possibilities, mixing it with garage, raga, dub, and more. With REMEDY, their first full-length, Basement Jaxx became a worldwide phenomenon, respected as part of electronica's upper echelon.

Review

Rolling Stone (7/5/01, pp.136,138) - 3.5 out of 5 stars - "...Fine-tunes their classy thump into a pop-house hybrid that owes something to Prince...the Jaxx have assimilated Prince Roger Nelson's gift for fusing genius grooves with unstoppable melodies..."
Spin (1/02, p.76) - Ranked #3 in Spin's "Albums of the Year 2001".
Spin (8/01, pp.127-8) - 8 out of 10 - "...What's great is the way they go from cartoon disco to sick drug-noise; from imagining Prince as a Chicago house auteur to perfecting Brazil-as-utopia samba-house....every track has that special Jaxx signature..."
Entertainment Weekly (6/29-7/6/01, p.144) - "...Where heart and feet meet and lovingly coexist..." - Rating: A-
Q (8/01, p.122) - 4 stars out of 5 - "...A hugely engaging follow-up to REMEDY....another brilliantly messy blueprint for UK dance music..."
Alternative Press (7/01, p.60) - 7 out of 10 - "...R&B flavored pop songs..."
Mixmag (6/01, p.177) - 5 out of 5 - "...Stealing the lead back from Daft Punk...re-connecting house music to pop, and punching through house's over-glossy current incarnation with the kind of edge that living in south London cannot fail to provide..."
CMJ (7/2/01, p.4) - "...Pushing their own stylistic boundaries, composing an album that is typical and unpredictable in almost every way..."
Vibe (6/01, p.134) - 4 discs out of 5 - "...Sonically, the duo throws interesting and unconventional stuff atop their super-snazzy tracks: punk guitar distortion, electro beats, Tijuana sass, munchkin raps, and sampled organs..."
Mojo (Publisher) (1/02, p.70) - Ranked #21 in Mojo's "Best [40] Albums of 2001".
Mojo (Publisher) (7/01, pp.96-7) - "...In pursuing the anarchic, joyous mash-up of their debut...to its twisted conclusion...Jaxx find themselves in androgynous, genre-bending territory that is Princely in spirit..."
NME (Magazine) (12/29/01, p.59) - Ranked #13 in NME's 50 "Albums Of the Year 2001".
NME (Magazine) (6/23/01, p.38) - 8 out of 10 - "...Breathtaking...As a manifesto fir unity, ROOTY is unbeatable..."
