“Metropole Orkest Vs. Basement Jaxx”, the Jaxx orchestral project which debuted in the Netherlands earlier this year, has been added to “Blaze”, the summer programme of the Barbican in London.
There will be two shows only, on Thursday July 14th & Friday July 15th
This is the music of Basement Jaxx like you’ve never heard it before, sweeping orchestral versions of all the hits including “Red Alert”, “Where’s Your Head At”, “Good Luck” and “Raindrops”, conducted and orchestrated by leading London composer, Jules Buckley, in collaboration with Basement Jaxx themselves, and featuring many of the singers from their legendary live show. The evening will also include performances of new material, written by Basement Jaxx’s Felix Buxton especially for this not-to-be-missed event.
Check out this unique collaboration between Basement Jaxx and the Metropole Orkest at the Barbican in London in July.
Tickets go on sale at 10am on Friday March 25th from the Barbican.

Hardpaw EP by DoGbEaTs
Atlantic Jaxx Recordings present the Hardpaw EP by DoGbEÃ¥Ts
Release Date: March 14th 2011
New on Atlantic Jaxx for March comes the “Hardpaw” EP from DoGbEåTs, Hailing from Portugal, via South London, DoGbEåTs is the canine pseudonym of longtime Jaxx collaborator and live percussionist, Oli Savill. Produced and mixed alongside Felix Buxton at the Jaxx SW9 studio, the “Hardpaw” EP brings 3 percussion led beats to the dancefloor, kicking off with “Galiza”, described as “batucada for the main room”, followed by an “electro nod to Kuduro” entitled “Salta” (meaning “jump”) and finally the tripped out, swarming bassful attack of “Beez”. The EP also comes with a bangin’ bonus remix of the main track, “Galiza”.
