New Music for Your Bunny Ears! Crookers!
Sunday, April 11th, 2010Hey ya’ll, time for your music fixing for the week! While your boy is working his ass off for that summer beach body at Crunch, he has been listening to Crookers‘ debut record Tons of Friends. Yes, bunnies and gentlemen, this is the Guns Don’t Kill People… Lazers Do of the splendiFIERCEous year of 2010, and we all know I hate using the word fierce so I’m not joking around.
If you do not know Crookers, well then, WHERE HAVE YOU BEEN!? First garnering fame for their poppin’ remix to Kid Cudi’s “Day N Nite,” the Italian DJ duo then set off to create something brilliant, and they were absolutely successful.
The album is just POPPIN’ with incredible beats and dope collaborations ranging from French Electro-Pop singer Yelle to the one and only Major Lazer. And while we are on the subject of these superstars, I MUST remark on the infectious beats of both of their respective songs…
“Cooler Couleur,” is Crookers’ song featuring Yelle, and let me tell you you will be tiltin’ your head back and getting involved with this track. Just hearing the youthful voice of the pint-sized French singer over a gritty, pulsating beat creates a crazed juxtaposition of musical genius, and I applaud Crookers for effortlessly executing such a feat.
Another notable track, “Jump UP,” featuring the one, the only Major Lazer, is an infectious song meant for the cluuuuuub and for the gym (my preference!), so basically this track is gonna make you SWEAT!! Woo, just by listening to the track as I write this review is making my ears sweat, check it out, get involved!
All in all, each track is unique in its own way, yet the entire album executes a cohesive sound. Each track makes sense where it’s placed and how it is mixed. PICK IT UP!
That’s it for now bunnies!
Until next time…
