The Singles

Product Information

The whole performance has been carefully designed and moves between the huge dance floor fillers such as 'Red Alert' and 'Rendez-Vous' into the more progressional electro in such succinct manner it keeps the crowds jumping and dancing all evening. There are robots involved, carnival dancers and stage invasions aplenty to add to the hedonistic experience of the show and the whole entity can become quite overwhelming at times as you start to lose exactly what it is you should be focusing on. There are few acts who turn a live show into a fully fledged production, Basement Jaxx are a great modern day example of the importance of show. In 2021, they composed the title music for the CBeebies series What's On Your Head?.

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.

Later editions of The Singles included the "JaxxHouz" radio edit of "U Don't Know Me" in place of the original album version.
