Crazy Itch Radio by Basement Jaxx

Crazy Itch Radio was the fourth studio album from Basement Jaxx, the duo of Felix Buxton and Simon Ratcliffe, who named themselves after the club night they used to throw in Brixton. It landed in 2006 on XL, with Astralwerks and Interscope also on the label credits, and by then the pair already had two Brit Awards for Best Dance Act on the shelf, from 2002 and 2004.

They came up through the underground house scene and still build records like a packed dancefloor, all elbows and sugar rush, but the guest list here casts the net wide: Linda Lewis and the Swedish pop star Robyn both take turns at the mic. The Observer and PopMatters each found room for it on their year-end lists.
