Basement Jaxx are getting back in the groove ahead of Indiependence

Basement Jaxx find themselves in fashion again, which is good news for anyone going to Indiependence, writes Ed Power

IT’S nice to be liked again, says Basement Jaxx’s Felix Buxton. The London duo’s upbeat dance music hasn’t always chimed with the times, but joyous party grooves are again in fashion. What better moment for Basement Jaxx to return with a new album and an ambitious new tour?

“We had started to notice that the kind of music we made was finding a new audience,” says Buxton.
