Like many of dance music's current bastards, "fidget house" started off as an in-joke between a few DJs. But if, as DJ Jesse Rose has remarked, the joke has "gone a little too far," Italian production duo Crookers take things all the way over the edge: saw-toothed bass lines wiggle like Jell-O, sampled vocals hack like coughing fits atop a stuttering kick, and the rave-horn keyboard lines are just three presets shy of Aqua. Clearly, Crookers are having just as much fun shamelessly flaunting their borrowed wares (B'more house, nu rave, and dubstep) as their audiences have dancing.
