In less capable hands the Jaxx method of blending ostensibly incompatible components to make perfectly measured floor-fillers would seem like the work of dilettante chancers. Yet Felix Buxton and Simon Ratcliffe proved on their second album that no sub-genre is safe from their adept efforts.</p>\n\n<p>"Romeo" is still a bittersweet pop classic and will break your heart or make you dance in one frantic twitch. "Breakaway" remains warped, Aphex Twin hued p-funk, all stuttering disco stabs and tumbling beats. "SFM" is syncopated Missy Elliot-esque sci-fi r nb, whilst "Jus 1 Kiss" comes on like glitterball disco-house with the circuits rewired. Even steel drums can\x92t ruin it.</p>\n\n<p>As on <em>Remedy</em>, listeners are lulled into a false sense of security on each listen. Slarta John\'s gruff Brummie MC-ing on "Jump \'n\' Shout" ripped apart notions of that LP being a purely summery confection. Here, even darker forces are at work. "Get Me Off" is dark, tough house with a bassline you wouldn\'t wanna meet down a dark alley. Almost as deviously, the mock jock-rock of "Where\' s Your Head At", works regardless of irony. It may sound like early, dated Beastie Boys, drowning in snarling riffs and frat-boy posturing but it rocks like a firework in a quarry.</p>\n\n<p>Even now the achingly cool fashionistas throw labels at these SW9 superstars, and accusations of style over content still come from jealous detractors. But what is still sure upon hearing <em>Rooty</em>, is that there ain\'t much better than the house that Jaxx built.\n<br /> \n</p>', 'is_archived': FALSE, 'source_url': 'http://www.bbc.co.uk/music/reviews/ddxm', 'source': 'BBC', 'edits': 0, 'content_licence': 'CC BY-NC-SA 3.0', 'user_id': '961dbdc2-e817-48b6-bbfc-7f448a87efbc', 'release_group': 'c290df05-2211-35c7-9701-7fa779afd41f'}
