Crookers - Tons of Friends (Album Stream)

Seems to be a day of album streams....Next up is Crookers long awaited Tons of Friends LP. Originally scheduled for release in May 2009 it is now ready to go almost 12 months later. The album makes an interesting listen with some obvious stand out moments such as the Soulwax Collaboration 'We Love Animals', Miike Snow collaboration 'Remedy' and Jump Up which also featured on the Major Lazer LP. These tracks aside I feel I need to listen to the album more thouroughly as Crookers are clearly making a bid for musicality over throw away dance floor fodder, a fact that their recent Interview with Clash backs up, with Crookers openly criticising a scene they played a pivotal role in creating. Judge for yourself...
