Basement Jaxx: Plug It In (XL)
by Paul Nolan
31 Mar 2004
With a roster featuring such luminaries as The White Stripes, Electric Six, Dizzee Rascal and The Avalanches, the XL label is right now occupying a position in the British music industry roughly equivalent to that of Real Madrid in the Champions League. Featuring the electrifying vocal stylings of N’Sync’s JC Chavez (finally, a boy-band member with some semblance of talent!), ‘Plug It In’ is a powerhouse rave anthem that’s guaranteed to turn even John Deasy into an E’d up lunatic (not that our more percipient political commentators haven’t already suggested this as a possible explanation for Fine Gael’s justice policies).

'Schizophrenic,' JC Chasez
By CHASE ARDOIN
WELSH JUNIOR
Since JC Chasez is a member of the boy band NSync, I was pretty pessimistic and figured that I wouldn’t enjoy his solo album in the least bit. However, after listening to the CD, my attitude changed very quickly.
I’m amazed by how much I actually like his music. I just couldn’t stop tapping my foot!
JC does not just focus on one kind of music. He switches from many different ones, such as reggae, pop and rock throughout the album. That’s one characteristic that I feel many musicians lack these days.
My favorite song on the CD is “Some Girls Dance With Women” because of its energetic beat.
Parents beware: There are a few songs on this CD that you may find too offensive, such as “All Day Long I Dream About Sex.” Despite that, I give the CD a green light.
From Five Star Magazine. Woohoo!
JC Chasez - Schizophrenic (JIVE Records)
by Colleen Maree Quill
In today's image conscious society, there are very few young artists whose transitions into adulthood are readily accepted. A member of the successful group, *N Sync, JC Chasez diversified and developed his producing and song writing skills as the band graced more and more magazine covers. While band-mate Justin Timberlake's Justified, had infusions of hip-hop, JC's Schizophrenic incorporates electronica elements.
As soon as the first notes of 'Some Girls (Dance With Women)' begin, JC sets the tone that this album is going to be one fun, playful ride. Appropriately 'Some Girls' is the first single mixing the perfect club tune with accents of Indian rhythms.
The album title allows for a diverse creative range. The most impressive element is how well it all flows together. JC opens up vocally delivering dance numbers and ballads with equal skill. Comparisons to Prince are well earned on '100 Ways.' JC doesn't limit himself to the purple one's backyard. 'All Day I Dream About Sex' will transport you back to 80's new wave and get you spinning round in a minute.
'One Night Stand' promises the world 'cause you're my girl tonight,' complete with flirtatious monkey calls. It's promising to hear an up-tempo delightful 'romp' that even references Smokey Robinson's classic 'Cruisin.'
"Everything you want" goes shows this vocal chameleon has captured The Police as well. This island flavored track will put you on a beach and rid your mind of any lingering thoughts of winter. Dizzy yet? If you are on the fence, take one listen to the infectious 'Shake It' written and produced by Basement Jaxx. Your head will be swaying back and forth on its own accord. You'll feel sexy and won't even know why. This is not your little sister's pop music. This is one album you can crank up to put a swagger in your step.
