 * Keep -- Easily verified notability. Google mentions books reviewing them that were published to the Library of Congress, Amazon, there's professionally made music videos, vice.com has articles on them etc., which lead me to .   Other mentions:  guardian.com, MTV[www.mtv.com/artists/basement-jaxx], Rolling Stone Mag , the BBC  -- IamM1rv (talk) 14:03, 21 April 2015 (UTC)
 * The band has not been nominated for deletion as this is just for a specific release from the band. A band being notable does not make every album they release notable (see WP:NOTINHERITED). However, if even some non-substantial and trivial sources can be found, a redirect is probably in order. -- Star cheers peaks news lost wars Talk to me 15:29, 21 April 2015 (UTC)
 * Hi ... did you know that this particular release made it into a top 50 list published in a book release in Britain before you posted?  I pulled 6 references, not going to bother to copypasta here, just making sure you're informed about this specific report and the nature of all related reports for Jaxx.  I did a copy & paste to all of the Jaxx albums, because that's exactly what the poster here did to all of the albums without fact checking the band or the albums.  Read down the list of deletes for this particular day and you will see they reported a reputable and notable band that put these out too - which shows that they did not do any research as required by Articles for deletion.  It essentially wastes the time of other wiki users as they did not do due diligence or even have the courtesy of using a "bundle" report. --  IamM1rv (talk) 14:49, 22 April 2015 (UTC)
 * Update Creating User:Starcheerspeaksnewslostwars ...not sure what happened here, but it looks like this person might have been trolling people or their account seized by someone & they were removed.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by IamM1rv (talk • contribs) 14:54, 22 April 2015 (UTC)

 * Keep per sources provided above - Notability is there. – Davey 2010 Talk 12:31, 6 May 2015 (UTC)
 * Redirect to Basement Jaxx discography - The sources above don't even mention the EP. – Davey 2010 Talk 18:19, 6 May 2015 (UTC)


 * Redirect all to Basement Jaxx discography as pointed out. WP:NALBUM and WP:GNG are not met in this particular case, and the sources given by  are either directory listings or mentions of the band.  Furthermore, this nomination has been applied to the following AfDs, as well (instead of having them all be on a nice, single AfD), and the same arguments and rationales are pretty much being shared by the same participants (e.g., people arguing "keep" because they're assuming that the albums inherit the band's notability).

 * - You little shit I've just got 10 notifications from you all saying you've mentioned me - I've never had 10 at once in my entire life here - You nearly gave me a heart attack . – Davey 2010 Talk 19:39, 16 May 2015 (UTC)
 * Evil red.svg Muahahaha. :P (and, now that you mention it, ). Sorry about that; I totally forgot about the notification pings from the user links earlier in the post.  I was just in a hurry to copy the text between the various AfDs and move on, and I used the text from the first one I commented on and just added more to the end of it to link the other AfDs. -- slakr  \ talk / 19:53, 16 May 2015 (UTC)
 * Haha It's all cool, I gathered you pasted it constantly . Bloody echo!!!!! – Davey 2010 Talk 19:58, 16 May 2015 (UTC)
