I'm not familiar with the more recent releases from basement jaxx but
their earlier 12"s - Fly Life, Sleazycheeks, and Samba Magic - are
fabulous tech-house/hard-house releases that fit in really well with
the Lowlands techno sound (ala 100% Pure) from the mid-90s. In fact
one of the basement jaxx releases featured remixes by lowlanders
Steve Rachmad (aka Sterac) and Orlando Voorn. So Basement Jaxx may be
mainstream fodder to some now but at one time they were very
underground and cutting edge.
