"In the Basement" was the lead single from Jade MacRae's second album Get Me Home (2008). "In the Basement" peaked at number at 60 on the ARIA Charts.

MacRae says of the song, "I wrote 'In the Basement' on a whirlwind writing trip to Sweden in early 2007. I was lucky enough to work with Arnthor Birgisson, one of the incredible writers from Max Martin's famous Maratone Studios in Stockholm. We had one day together. He had a huge collection of vintage synths and we ended up with a banging electro club track."[3]

"In the Basement" won the 2008 APRA songwriting award for "Urban Work of the Year".[4]

Video

The music video for "In the Basement" features Bobby Morley (who MacRae was partnered with during season 2 of It Takes Two). Choreography by Marko Panzic, who would later go on to reach the Top 20 in series one of So You Think You Can Dance Australia.[5]
