crookers seem to make it to the top via some clever remixes for example the almost bassline remix of day n night, not to be fround upon mind you.

proxy seems to be making a stand in his own right now what with a gatecrasher appearance and also some great Djs (2many Djs to name one) dropping his great tunes.

it would be good to see some more electro chart toppers for the simple reason of having more variety in terms of clubs playing these songs. whenever i seem to go to an "electro night" at a club near me it all seems to be the cheesy dance rubbish (wileys rolex and calvin harris ft dizzee) followed by a drop of crookers and soulwax and the kids love it.

Keep up the good work pelski, we love ya !!

This is funny because right now, all these artist are copying Dave Taylor. If you were to ask me, I’d say Dave Taylor aka Switch should be at the very top of this list!

agreed on the 8-Bit. while i’m not over-sold on all his productions, ‘suspense’ is a gorgeous tune; so well made and i haven’t tired of it yet. fake blood has produced the biggest banger in my eyes by far for 08 with ‘mars’, but it’s got to the stage now where i can spot one of his after 3 or 4 beats which can’t be good. and if it wasn’t for ‘love to edit’ which i almost spray my shorts over each time i hear, i’d have to say crookers are pretty much stuck in a nasty rutt.

Lol @ haywire aswell!!! to actually think the crookers chemical brothers remix is better than herves requires a trip to get your ear holes cleaned out.

As for the poll...surely foamo should have topped it..while a close second would be jack beats.

Whilst im no crookers hater, I do play some of their tunes as from time to time they make a dancefloor monster...BUT...id say 70 of the stuff their knocking out now is just downright lazy..I think their caught on a hamster wheel and trying to churn out as much tunes as they can without any spark..that ep on mad decent and their last one on southern friend are audible proof of that.

haywire’d, I agree Crookers are great fun, but i cannot agree that their remix is better than herve’s?!

And er.. sorry for being an ‘antisocial prick’ & not MSNing u but ive already posted alot of Stereoheroes earlier on in the year (http://ppelectro.blogspot.com/2008/02/back-to-bat-cave.html) and also they send me most of their new material. (also im unfortunately on gmail not MSN)

yeah, Stereheroes r good, tho they’re newer stuff doesn’t live up to their early stuff. It’s the age old problem of, again, becoming a little samey…

Lol @ haywire being up Crookers ass
I love them too pretty much have all their remixes and stuff but I gotta agree it’s starting to sound the same and about the Salmon remix their remix couldn’t touch Hervé’s remix and never will. Right now I’m also in too the Stereoheroes they have put out 90% just straight up hot tunes it’s just a matter of time before they blow up
