I Heard You Say?

by J Heasy

The original spent weeks and weeks at Number One (#1) on the Overall Beatport chart, now new remixes arrive only to skyrocket this track further into tune-sphere!

Dennis Ferrer’s “Hey Hey” was one of the biggest and coolest tracks of 2009 and still in 2010.

The Crookers work their magic and boom, they turn a massive tune bigger again.

Huge.

difficult for weirdos

by jake

Were all eagerly awaiting the release of the Crookers latest long-play installment ‘We Love Animals’. In light of this much anticipated LP, Phra & Bot have been given prestigious remix duties from English rockstar Robbie Williams.

I can assure you this is better than their ‘Sexy Bitch’ remix. Words cant describe the sound of indigestion but this track sums it up pretty appropriately. Keep an eye of out for their EP coming in the next few weeks!

You listened to me rant and rave about how good ‘Remedy’ is (the collaboration between the Swedish Miike Snow and the Crookers)… Now it’s time to listen to me rant and rave about the Magik Johnson remix.

Well maybe not so much rant and rave.

Just download this beefed up, hypnotically apt remix, and enjoy the fuck out of it like I did.

crookers? is that you?

by jake


Lady Gaga, Beyonce and the Crookers.. An awkward combination to say the least. Kudos to Crookers for finally realizing that they’ve lost touch with the mainstream world and made an effort to stimulate our cheesy brains with a nice and simple vocal remix. Still eagerly awaiting their debut LP… props to chemicaljump!

Keep an eye out for ‘partyaids.tv presents’ coming within the next few weeks, mini-mixes from Swick, Barron, Sweetlove, J Heasy, Barnz and WTRS.

where’s my money?

by J Heasy

Last weekend was one of the biggest, peaking on Friday Night/Saturday morning @ Chinese Whispers and beyond.

Although I’m sure this upcoming week will top it.

Tonight Christian Luke Does the Burbs @ Mynt and Rob Pix turns 45, then I go into hibernation until Monday morning when the crew and myself jetset to the Gold Coast for the Unlucky Schoolies Tour, then onto Byron Bay to play and party some more! Back to Mynt for the usual weekly fun and then Stereosonic!!

A detailed written and photo filled blog post on return.

wow.

First heard this in The Crookers Melbourne Stereosonic set last year. Was kind of a scary and shocking moment.

Dub-step? WTF?

It’s pretty clear that the Crookers have found new musical direction, acquired new aspiration or simply; just ate a lemon. Theres still much debate whether this new ‘approach’ will be as successful as ‘Day N Night, The Salmon Dance’ etc. But I say.. They’ve distinguished themselves in the industry, they can do whatever they want. Whether it’s fire or whether it’s absolute horseshit.. it’ll be downloaded 44000 times and see more exposure then Britney’s snatch. I for one embrace the dubstep with open arms.. it be baby makin’ music.

Passion Pit’s ‘Little Secrets’ has received more remix treatment from the likes of Felix Da Housecat, Jaymo & Andy George as well as L-Vis 1990. Let me just tell you, when you get your hands on the FDH remix it will basically teleport you to a world made of marshmellows, inhabited only by bunnies and rising riffs with the only food source being love and tenderness. Keep an eye out.

I’m looking forward to turning on the radio and hearing this every 0.7 hours. After the success of ‘Memories’ on (god forbid me say it) David Guetta’s ‘One Love’, Kid Cudi is back with ‘Enter Galactic’. Pretty disapointed in my own song finding skills because I could only get you a radio rip, but i’m sure you will enjoy it nonetheless.. it’s catchy as hell.

Kid Cudi – Enter Galactic

I’ve had a nice long listen to the Crookers new LP ‘Put Your Hands On Me’. I’m not sure if they’ve turned a corner but I certainly didn’t expect to hear anything remotely close to these following tracks. As I’m sure you’re aware of, I’m a sucka for some good vocal work on a track.. both impress me, especially Transilvania.

Crook Beats

by jake

FD-TRCR-PROMO

La Roux skyrocketed onto your ipod’s this year with the help of outstanding remixes from Skream and Zinc… with this third single she once again displays that brilliant ability to create a package highlighting the hottest upcoming DJ / production artistes of today.

‘I’m Not Your Toy’ showcases her unique ability to blend her softly toned vocals with any beat… here she manipulates the 80s back lines n synthy effects and creates another future-proof pop gem! The remixes are otherworldly… Jack Beats have become perhaps the most talked about new production team with their recent bass bomb ‘U.F.O.’ taking things to the next level… here they turn out another organ grinder… intertwining bass lines intoxicated with La Roux’s luscious vocals for a full dance floor workout that is the perfect mix of ‘song’ and dancefloor dynamics.

Crookers are back with what can only be described as ‘vintage italiano horn.’ I approach every new Crookers production with no expectations and an open mind because you never know what they’re about to subject you to. I heard this on Jaymo & Andy George almost a month ago and was wondering whether it was going to get a release or it was going to be leaked. How do you say ‘leaked in full quality’ in italian? marco?
