In support of the forthcoming Scars Basement Jaxx head out on a self-proclaimed North American "whistlestop DJ tour" this fall. It starts in San Francisco on 10/30. They're in L.A. for Halloween.

Their vaunted DJ sets are known best for their devil-may-care kitchen sink approach, and routinely pitch such varying artists as Mr Oizo and Whitney Houston against Nas, Eminem, Prince and Fingers Inc, whilst incorporating their extensive catalogue of Basement Jaxx hits, including "Red Alert," "Romeo," and "Where's Your Head At." Speaking of which, we have footage of a recent full-on show at the Jisan Valley Festival in Seoul: Take a look at a live "Where's Your Head At" and Raindrops" while you peruse the dates.Continue reading Basement Jaxx Set American Dates...

As we mentioned a ways back, "Raindrops" is a triumphant (and awesomely campy) return for Basement Jaxx. On the psychedelic anthem's forthcoming home Scars we're told to expect guest vocals from Grace Jones, Yoko Ono, Yo! Majesty, Lightspeed Champion, Cyndi Lauper, Santigold, and etc., but the track features Felix Buxton ably holding down the mi...
