Synkronized

The album's recording sessions began at Jay Kay's Buckinghamshire home studio, Chillington, in 1998. About nine tracks[https://web.archive.org/web/20001001054459/http://jamiroquai.com/articles/interviews/kay/mtv6-10-99/index.html Jay Kay MTV interview 1999] were recorded, but the band's bassist, Stuart Zender, left partway through the recording in late 1998. Jay Kay hired a replacement, Nick Fyffe, who previously played in a Jamiroquai cover band, and the album was re-recorded. The revised album was finished and released within six months. Synkronized is the band's last album to feature didgeridoo player Wallis Buchanan.{{cite web |last1=Fossum |first1=Melissa |title=Do You Guys Remember Jamiroquai? |url=https://www.phoenixnewtimes.com/music/do-you-guys-remember-jamiroquai-6605647 |website=Phoenix New Times |accessdate=11 January 2020 |date=26 April 2012 |archive-date=11 January 2020 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20200111094257/https://www.phoenixnewtimes.com/music/do-you-guys-remember-jamiroquai-6605647 |url-status=live }} Kay said that he was dissatisfied with Synkronized in a 2001 interview, "I never really locked into that album, lyrically. I wasn't there. I listen to it now, and I shake my head."

The opening track, "Canned Heat", has "svelte Chic Organisation strings, a percolating bassline and a stomping four-on-the-floor rhythm". The second track, "Planet Home", is a "straight, bass-driven funk" track that has techno influences from "ghostly ambient harmonies to bone-shaking synth bass," and an "out-of-nowhere Latin hustle breakdown".{{cite web |last1=Johnson |first1=Kevin C. |title=Review's: CDs |url=https://www.proquest.com/docview/403974162/C760F0F2FAFF405FPQ/ |website=St. Louis Post-Dispatch |access-date=6 August 2022}} The next track, "Black Capricorn Day", has a "driving funk groove with sassy horn interjections" which tend to "stutte[r] like a record on a turntable", with its lyrics about being depressed.{{cite web |last1=Barber |first1=Nicolas |via=ProQuest|title=The Critics: Rock & Pop: The prat in the hat is - ProQuest |url=https://www.proquest.com/docview/312889943/940B6555CC1C48E5PQ/ |website=The Independent |access-date=11 August 2022 |language=en |date=13 June 1999}} The lyrics of the fourth track "Soul Education" is about having an "instinctive understanding of universal truths", as Kay confirmed in an interview with Muzik, "A soul education is what we're all born with, and the [song's] lyrics say, 'Life information — it's on the breeze.'"{{cite journal |last1=Lanham |first1=Tom |title=Jamiroquai Q&A |journal=College Music Journal |date=August 1999 |issue=72 |page=16 |url=https://archive.org/details/bub_gb_rikEAAAAMBAJ/page/n15/mode/2up?q=jamiroquai+synkronized |access-date=23 March 2023 |via=Wayback Machine|language=English}}

"Falling" is a "bass driven" acid-jazz ballad track with its lyrics dedicated to Kay's then-girlfriend Denise Van Outen, which is followed by "Destitute Illusion", an instrumental track "swamped in layer upon layer of antique analogue synthesizers", and has the "scratching of DJ D-Zire".{{cite journal |last1=Louissaint |first1=Rich |title=Synkronized |journal=Vibe |date=23 June 1999}} The seventh track, "Supersonic", has a "didgeridoo and dobro drone against electronic percussion and a squiggling synth bass, all of which builds to an hallucinogenic mid-song samba break."{{cite web |last1=Considine |first1=J.D. |author1-link=J.D.

The album received positive reviews from critics. According to John Bush of AllMusic: "Kay [continues his] fascination with club-bound music of the 1970s -- from disco to jazz-funk to rare groove to later Motown -- but also shows signs of maturity." Tony Farsides of The Guardian remarked that Synkronized{{'}}s "hard and nervy uptempo disco feel reflects the frantic atmosphere surrounding its creation." Farsides called it "Jamiroquai's best record to date. It is more consistent than its three predecessors.{{Cite web|last=Farsides|first=Tony|date=21 May 1999|title=Cover story: Keep it under your hat Jamiroquai's lead singer isn't just a scruffy herbert.

Rolling Stone gave the album three out of five stars, claiming "Synkronized is fifty minutes of sleek, sexy fun; a party album delivered with something like conviction. It's not exactly irresistible, but, really, what's the point of resisting it?" Spin gave the album the same rating, claiming "...redirects the band's British tendency toward smoothed-out old black jams....soaring strings, gyrating congas, hell-bent wah-wah's, and an undeniably live rhythm section that'll hustle your muscles and make you freak to the beat..." Entertainment Weekly claimed: "Imagine if [Stevie] Wonder had made a disco album in 1977!....Synkronized is a hat trick done with the sharpest chapeau in the store." College Music Journal claimed: "This incessantly upbeat expedition travels into the regions of Travolta-era disco...feverish funk...and instrumental iridescence...keeping your ears tuned to their funktastic audio adventures."{{cite journal|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=oGdXOgiDmIcC&dq=jamiroquai+synkronized+june+8+1999&pg=PA5|via=Google Books|page=5|author1=Comer, M.
