Basement Jaxx’s fifth album, Scars, is a dance-pop masterpiece featuring guests like Yoko Ono, Sam Sparro, Santigold, Kelis, and Chipmunk. Their sound remains urgent and innovative without relying on retro trends. Highlights include the top 20 hit "Raindrops," the string-heavy grime-infused title track "Scars," and the beautiful "My Turn" with Lightspeed Champion. With contributions from Amp Fiddler, Jose James, and Yo! Majesty, Scars outshines other UK dance acts.
