Crookers – Able To Maximize (Original Mix)

Crookers - Able To Maximize (Original Mix)

Italian DJ Crookers or Francesco “Phra” Barbaglia has been creating sample-heavy dance tunes for a long time now, mostly having been released on his own Ciao Records. Now, Crookers re-writes the entire rule book with a brand new track “Able To Maximize“. An assortment of samples- ranging from clicks to whistles, to metallic sounds, Crookers forms a stomper of a house tune, with a driving vocal embedded in the works stating “You want to be able to maximize“.

Combining sounds derived from old school acid house along with Melbourne bounce, the number of sounds you will hear in this tune will be far too difficult to identify, and we were nothing short of pleasant surprise upon hearing this track. Give it a listen below and pick it up on iTunes here. 

This is what Phra said about the track,

“This is the little story for AbleToMaximize,

one night in my house after a really nice dinner with my friends Dilligas we went in studio to play some old dub music and enjoy the night.
Despite we wanted to chill they came out with a little midi file that was insanely stupid.

From that midi I/we took the wrongest drums,distorted the shit out of it and add my twist.
Some internet help made the track just abnormal!

I would like to thanks the old guy trying to explain to people how to play Pan Flute (first break) and the little girl trying to make that “E”, “E”…a “sort of E” …I love them!
This track ended up to be pretty wonky and mad in a good way…and despite everything is working really good in my sets and always put a smile in people listening to it (which is probably the best thing because as my grandmama used to say : Is impossible to see an ugly face if it’s smiling).

Are you able to maximize?

ciao!
Phra”
