DanceFrontDoor, a UK music web site is reporting that Jay has said that writing part of the new album in Scotland has inspired a fresh sound. The site quotes Jay as saying "Getting away from London and writing the album in Scotland has had a great effect on the music. It gave me a welcome breather. I needed to ease off, so I just jumped in my car and drove to Scotland to make it." According to the site, Jay hopes to have the album finished by the end of July for a September release.
Around this time in May 2000, bidding on the Mini website for a Jamiroquai customised Mini car finished with the winner driving away in a bit of mini-jamiro-history for just over 14,000 pounds (UK).
