    For nearly twenty years, the U.K.’s Basement Jaxx have been at the forefront of House and Garage music, always looking to incorporate new sounds from around the world. Their latest album, Junto, was described as “one of their best” by Jason, as it combines the maturity of years of work with their signature global influences. The two break down tracks on the new album as well as ruminate on the state of House music and the younger artists carrying the flag. Plus, they share an exclusive mix of current favorites as well as some Basement Jaxx rarities.
