Basement Jaxx: 'Next album could be our last'

Basement Jaxx have revealed that their next album could be their last major release.

The group, who started in 1994, said that they are "ready" to release another album but suggested it could also be their final record.


Simon Ratcliffe told Digital Spy: "We're ready to do another Basement Jaxx album. It might be the last one, but we'll probably work together still making music for films or an opera or something.

"We'll see. I mean, I'm definitely keen on continuing with film music. I released a solo EP this year, which was me being self-indulgent - that was really nice and rewarding. I'd like to continue with some more left field stuff."

Ratcliffe also admitted that it was "good" the duo went on a break last year, adding: "We were still working but not rushing to make another album. We'd been releasing music and touring for the last decade."

Basement Jaxx recently wrote the score for teen movie Attack the Block.

The group are part of the lineup who will be performing at the Smirnoff Nightlife Exchange Project at Alexandra Palace on 12th November 2011. To find out more visit www.facebook.com/SmirnoffGB
