Crook-Crook-Crookers!


As usual this is a little late by blogosphere standards, but the Crookers Essential Mix (download available at the bottom of the tracklist) is not to be missed out on. They played a sick show last sunday at club 1234 here in Montreal, and although the crowd was boorish, repetitive and stale and the photographers were just reinforcing bland stereotypes the music was good enough to make up for it. Its the music, not the scene, which matters and endures.
Anyway here are some individual tracks from their Essential Mix, which is basically what they played here and I imagine in all the clubs on their tour.
Day n Nite - Kid Cudi (Crookers remix)

Here is the original, still pretty good
Floating - Jape (DIM remix) this one gets good at about 2:45
Get Hype - Math Head a nice n heavy beat on this one
Hoy! - Duke Dumont a kinda Dervish themed tune, quite fun. Makes me wanna spin around
And one Crookers original, not on their EM, but played at the show We Are Prostitutes - Crookers

Enjoy and peace out
