Basement Jaxx

After ten years away from the main stages of the world, Basement Jaxx are bringing back their legendary euphoric energy-filled live experience with a summer series of 2025 headline festival appearances.

While many of their electronic contemporaries have looked to technology to make their gigs a compelling experience, Basement Jaxx have always embraced a maximalist approach, combining a dizzying and ever-growing array of singers, MCs, musicians and eventually whole troupes of dancers to turn any stage into a life-affirming cavorting carnival of music.

“After a few years DJing round the globe, it’ll be great to return to the live stage and the Live Show Experience” enthused Basement Jaxx’s Felix Buxton. “To connect to people with life affirming energy and give people a great time.”

Starting in 1994 with a series of underground EPs on their own Atlantic Jaxx label and now famous parties held in venues across a pre-gentrified South London, Felix and Simon Ratcliffe’s distinctive combination of house and garage with punk attitude, global influences and unforgettable tunes quickly developed a cult following that led to their 1999 first album ‘Remedy; with its breakthrough hits ‘Red Alert’, ‘Rendez Vu’ and Jump & Shout. 2001’s follow-up ‘Rooty’ was even bigger and louder: ‘Where’s Your Head At’ provided an evergreen anthem that still crosses all generations and genres.
