"The production duo of Simon Ratcliffe and Felix Buxton released several of Britain's most respected and enjoyable progressive house anthems of the '90s from their base in South London."

About Rooty:
"Sophomore album blues from a pair of producers who just want to party all night and make a few tracks during the day? Not a chance. Two years of globe-trotting as house superstars fortunately hasn't dulled the keen blade of Basement Jaxx's production style. So raw you can't believe they spent over an hour per track, so perfect you're glad they stopped noodling about long before most producers would, and so poppy they should get picked up by commercial radio in America as well as the rest of the world, Rooty is the second straight triumph from a pair of producer/DJs who look set to carry the torch for dancefloor electronica in the years to come. "

About Remedy:
"The duo's long-awaited debut album is one of the most assured, propulsive full-lengths the dance world had seen since Daft Punk's Homework. A set of incredibly diverse tracks, Remedy is indebted to the raw American house of Todd Terry and Masters at Work"

Check Rooty's "Romeo", "Breakaway", "Jus 1 Kiss", "Where's Your Head At", and from Remedy: "Rendez-Vu", "Red Alert", "Always Be There", "Same Old Show". Somewhat commercial yet a high quality dance style Not all the songs are a marvel, true, but some are really worth it: you put them loud in a disco, and you won't be able to stop moving your bones!
The similarity to Daft Punk's Homework is very clear in some of the songs... gee, Daft Punk also makes your bones shake their calcium, Homework is a perfect album: 5 stars (in its own style of course).
