The Basement Jaxx will surely be shoved into the forefront of British dance music you can <i>dance</i> to, seeing as how Fatboy Slim has gone chilled, Underworld and the Prodigy are MIA and the Chemical Brothers are still working on a fourth.This album is easily the most retro (read: FUN!) since Beck's "Midnite Vultures"; everything from the day-glo packaging to the blips and noises in the grooves makes this an album you must have to just get a smile on your face.The Jaxx had a tough task with following up "Remedy", an undeniable house masterpiece, but they do the job admirably with "Rooty": the only complaint I'd have is with its slight 43 minute length. Nevertheless, this is a gem, the way life should be: sunny, danceable and "groovy." Definitely worth the money.
