We’ve been obsessed with Quentin Tarantino’s spaghetti western/slave vengeance/southern flick Django Unchained since it was first announced. We clearly had some strong opinions on it when we saw it (read our review), so it’s not surprising the film still dominates our thoughts.

Yes it’s gotten increasingly commercial […]

Back in October Milano electro-nauts Crookers streamed their Dr. Gonzo album for all to hear before they released it, and now they’re doing that again with their latest EP/maxi-single, “Hummus”, and its various remixes. Remixers include Botnek, Donovan, Hybrid Theory and Astronomar, but personally we dig the Slow Waves Mix the most. Pick up the […]

The hard working Italian brothers-in-electro duo Crookers dropped their new album this Tuesday, and they’re streaming it for all to hear before purchase.
