As sure as the sun rises each day, you can count on some sets from I Love Techno being streamed over satellite and recorded for your listening pleasure each year. And unfortunately as with the setting sun, some of the sets weren’t aired completely. But that shouldn’t stop you from getting up each morning, especially on a morning like this one!

I’d personally say my favorite out of all these is a very close tie between Drop The Lime, Knife Party, and Boys Noize.

The first set of remixes from the Crookers first Gonzo EP was just released a while back, and now today we’ve got a whole new set from their second EP. All of these remixes hold ground in their own right, but the ones that really stand out for me are Mumbai Science, Will Bailey, and Keith & Supabeatz remixes. I’ve been seriously itching for some new Mumbai Science since their Lotus EP and they’ve given us a track in their usual deep spirit of electronic music.

And also, if it wasn’t already pretty obvious, Bot confirmed on Twitter the other day that their next album will be entitled Dr. Gonzo.

How is it possible to make Bust ‘Em Up even better you ask? Well, put out a few remixes of it and have one be a Fatboy Slim edit. Strangely I’m not in love with any of the other official remixes here. I feel like some of the unofficial ones are a bit more hard hitting. Of course I’m sure that’s not what they were going for here, just a personal preference of mine.

I’m still not exactly sure where the Crookers are going with this whole Dr. Gonzo thing. It seems like an alias they’re producing under, yet they’ve said it’s not. It could be the name of their next album which I’ve heard is underway. All I know is that I like this sound, a lot. I know people started to lose a bit of faith in the Crookers after their album dropped. It was a radically different sound that Phra refered in the interview I had with him as:

“Not a 12 club tracks album…or a 12 Day N Night rmx album, it’s more what we like to listen to in our car when we are going to the airport”

This Dr. Gonzo project is much more of a step back to their original sound. Not quite club, not quite a Day N Night remix album, and not quite airport music, but definitely something good. They’ve also collaborated with two other artists once again for this EP. Lazy Ants & His Majesty Andre join them for Carcola. I think it’s about time for a whole new love affair with the Crookers to begin!

p.s. Please listen to this track on some good speakers/headphones. The perfectly clean cut bass just doesn’t come through on laptop speakers.

I’ve been anxiously awaiting this new Crookers to drop for some time now. You’d almost think these were original Crookers tracks from back in the day with the way they sound, but it’s actually a collaboration with Savage Skulls, Neoteric, and Wax Motif. They’ve said that Dr. Gonzo isn’t the name of their new alias, just the title of a project/album(!) they’re working on, so I’m assuming any more tracks will also be collaborations of some kind. I can tell you one thing right now, if they make an album full of tracks like Bust ‘em Up I would play it for a week straight.

I don’t know about you guys, but I almost forgot about AC Slater‘s massive remix of Cooler Couleur. It’s been almost 3 months since the always infamous words that it would be “out soon” were given. I still think the Junkie XL remix is king of the hill, but AC’s remix does bring more club appeal to it. What do you guys think?

Another artist that hadn’t really popped up on my radar until recently is the LA duo known as Religion. I had a few of their previous remixes, but it wasn’t until I heard the remix they did for Steed Lord (which I immediately charted) that I went and downloaded every remix I could find. The two most recent remixes are without a doubt some of the best in their repertoire. I’m loving how much harder and energetic they made Avalanche.

I’ve some awesome things both personal and for the blog coming very shortly! I want to make sure it’s 100% before I tell you though ;). In other news, the next Guest Mix is locked in and should be MASSIVE so be on the lookout for that dropping soon.

I’m really not sure what to think about this last track… It makes One a bit better, but also doesn’t do Show Me Love any justice.
