BASEMENT JAXX'S ORCHESTRAL ALBUM...

Basement Jaxx, orchestral album
Should Daft Punk be lawyer-ing up? Not only have Basement Jaxx switched things up and composed a film score, but now the boffins are going orchestral!

We’re kidding of course. But not about the Jaxx going for a grandiose, orchestral sound, which they have indeed achieved with their latest release, Basement Jaxx vs. Metropole Orkest.

As the title would imply the release sees Basement Jaxx meeting dutch orchestra Metropole Orkest for some stirring intepretations of the UK duo’s back catalogue. Their meeting was recorded live earlier this year at a concert in Holland and makes up the bulk of the new record.

You can hear a select few orchestral reworkings from the record below all of which sounds pretty damn sublime, if you ask us! The album drops on July 11th.
