Dance duo Basement Jaxx have released another track from their upcoming five-song EP What a Difference Your Love Makes, their first new material since 2009.
This new number, ‘Mermaid of Salinas’ starts off with a traditional Spanish guitar then bursts into a mash-up of drum and bass, house and a Latin fiesta. Quite an unique combination.
What a Difference Your Love Makes is set to be released on 20 September through 37 Adventures. Check out the new song below.
