The third Basement Jaxx album 'Kish Kash' features an array of stellar guest vocalists including punk icon Siouxsie Sioux on the title track, London grime superstar Dizzee Rascal on 'Lucky Star', the mighty pipes of rock n' soul diva Lisa Kekaula (of LA's 'The Bellrays' ) on 'Good Luck' and rounds off with the mellow tones of Meshell Ndegeocello. Released on XL Recordings in 2004, the album subsequently won the inaugural GRAMMY award for 'Best Dance/Electronic Album' and was nominated for the UK's prestigious Mercury Prize.

Performer Notes
  • Basement Jaxx: Simon Ratcliffe, Felix Buxton.
  • Additional personnel: Dizzee Rascal, Siouxsie Sioux, Me'Shell NdegeOcello, JC Chasez, Lisa Kekaula (vocals).
  • Recorded at Jaxx Studio, London, England between March 2002 & July 2003.
  • Any album that features both boy-band vet JC Chasez and goth-punk icon Siouxsie Sioux calls for a double take, and once Basement Jaxx have your attention, they pull you into the non-stop house party of KISH KASH. On their third album, the UK duo of Simon Ratcliffe and Felix Buxton joins the ranks of the Chemical Brothers and Fatboy Slim by including a remarkable roster of high-profile guest artists that extends to soul/funk diva Me'Shell NdegeOcello and up-and-coming British rapper Dizzee Rascal.
  • KISH KASH opens with the energetic "Good Luck," which presents the buoyant, Motown-influenced vocals of Lisa Kekaula against a loopy backdrop of distorted synthesizer and a full string section. Other standout tracks include the two Prince-inspired numbers that feature NdegeOcello ("Right Here's the Spot" and "Feels Like Home") and cockney lyricist Dizzee Rascal's delirious Eastern-inflected contribution. The true highlight, however, is the driving, fuzz-bass-fueled title track, which features Siouxsie Sioux's unmistakable vocals over the surging sonic assault. A fun, clever, and always unpredictable outing, KISH KASH is house music for people who don't think they like house music.

Rolling Stone (11/13/03, p.90) - 4 stars out of 5 - "The energy nevers sags and ideas never flag on the third album...[the] duo cribs from R&B, punk, house, Asian, Latin and Middle Eastern music without the self-consciousness that usually accompanies such a broad palette..."

Q (11/03, p.106) - 4 stars out of 5 - "...'Plug It In' is an instant classic fuelled by nitro-bass, falsetto vocals and rave synths, while 'Lucky Star' dazzles in a future-funk collage of bhangra beats, tricky Neptunes melodies and Dizzee Rascal..."
