Product Description

Amazon.co.uk Review
The dust has barely settled from their recent The Singles retrospective but Basement Jaxx are back on the floor with a brand new studio album. Crazy Itch Radio, built around the concept of a radio station (complete with interludes and skits), begins with an absurdly dramatic intro before flowing into the contrastively slinky, feel-good single "Hush Boy", a slick, mellow mash-up of styles that wouldn't be out of place on the duo's kaleidoscopic debut Remedy. Indeed, Crazy Itch… unfolds with a fluidity and infectious joie-de-vivre not really seen since first album. The ease with which tracks like banjo-house anthem "Take Me Back To Your House" and "Hey You!" spill from the speakers in colourful floods of cinematic strings, Balkan folk references, house beats and rock guitars, pays testament to the duo's outstanding studio alchemy. Elsewhere on the album they make grime sound fun ("Run 4 Cover"), pay coruscating tribute to marijuana ("Bubbles") and drop the odd slow number ("Lights Go Down"). Immediate and vibrant, Crazy Itch... is Basement Jaxx at their sassy, life-affirming best. --Paul Sullivan

CD Description
'Crazy Itch Radio' is the fourth album from Brixton-based punk-house pioneers Basement Jaxx. Keeping to their original and aggressive mix of house and garage music, this release features collaborations with artists as diverse as David Cassidy and Grace Jones. Includes the single 'Hush Boy'.

5.0 out of 5 stars Funky!, 11 Mar 2007
Basement Jaxx isn't an album which sits naturally in my CD collection but after seeing them support Robbie last summer, thinking I'd have to grin and bear their set, I was very pleasantly surprised and found myself participating in a non-alcohol induced 'bounce'! Equally I was surprised that I knew virtually all their tracks, just didn't ever know who sung them. Bought the album straight after and wasn't disappointed - my big favourites are Hush Boy, Take me back to your house, On the Train and Everybody. Also love the Crazy Itch intro! The rest of the album is at an ok-listenable level but I don't skip past any tracks which is always a good sign!

5.0 out of 5 stars just buy it, its great!!, 11 Oct 2006
First basement jaxx album I have bought, heard "Hush Boy" on Jo Wylie's live lounge and loved the track and the others they did.
Bought the album next week and can't stop playing it, I especially like "Take Me Back To Your House" with the banjo in the background and the trumpets on "Hey You"

5.0 out of 5 stars The radio dogs danglies!, 19 Sep 2006
By mynchiboy (London, UK) - See all my reviews
'Crazy Itch Radio' seems to have received a mixed reaction in some quarters but pay no attention! Either those who criticise it are simply talking.. or have never heard (or can't remember) 'Remedy'. Great return to early garagey form, especially 'take me back to your house', 'smoke bubbles' and 'lights go down' (almost an extended version of 'If I ever recover' - a very underestimated tune from 'Kish Kash'). The boys done good. Only seem to get better.
