Basement Jaxx - Right Here’s The Spot - Features

Basement Jaxx marries something old with something new to seriously funky effect... Joe Silva explores some of the production techniques behind their quirky dance floor-filler.

In all walks of life there will always be those who are reluctant to change. But now that even Norman Cook’s on the fiddle with Pro Tools, who is there left? Not Simon Ratcliff and Felix Buxton – they of huge dance floor tunes and Mercury Prize nominations. So it was that, before starting work on Kish Kash, their last full-length release, the dynamic duo introduced a G4 Mac and Logic rig into their musical world.
