Review of Jaxx "Crazy Itch Radio" album from avclub.com: "Basement Jaxx
Crazy Itch Radio
(XL)
(Reviewed by Andy Battaglia
September 26th, 2006)
Of the seemingly hundreds of sound-sources at work in Basement Jaxx songs, the horns are most liable to blow things wide open. The beats are a given, and the vocals always smoke, but the horns command something grander in the way they make good on the ideas of parades that are otherwise merely implied in the typical Jaxx swirl and din.
Crazy Itch Radio is Basement Jaxx's horniest album yet; it's also the group's least cataclysmic, due to house music's earthy, ethereal properties. Peering back at the smooth dance whoosh they began with, the two jumpy producers have taken a big breath this time out. There's a lot of air in play, pushed through gaggles of brass instruments or purposely left bare. Or, in more Jaxx-appropriate terms: Where past albums like Rooty and especially 2003's Kish Kash seemed intent on eating listeners' brains by way of shuddering rhythms and hyper-dense pastiche, Crazy Itch Radio seems content to just lick those brains and let them get off on the restraint."

Re: Word of the Week
WORD OF THE WEEK (4/15-4/22) IS: "BUMPIN'"
1. A term used for music when played at a pleasantly high volume. - "The bass on that track is bumpin'!"
2. A complimentary adjective, good to use in almost any situation. - "Wow, that song was bumpin'!" - "This party is bumpin'!" - "Look at that girl, her outfit is bumpin'!"
All the best from Camp G, always. Have a great week. - Jake Glasgow (Mister G)
