Doors: 10pm / Show: 10pm
Paul was influenced by electronic music, had his first turntables when he was 17 and started his collection of techno, electro, teck house tracks. Now producing his own electronic music, he’s preparing with Offone his second burning live set, more smashing and spiritual, in a minimal state of mind, with some more acid sounds during the trip.
His first live set was more influenced by Techno. His compositions are a rhythm, a harmony, a texture that only Paul Ritch has, a sound that makes you feel great! He found the exact middle in between Minimal and the dance floor temptations. It is understood that Paul Ritch has stricken the Minimal scene like a storm. After no more than a year, he succeeded into producing tunes for label such as: Get Physical, ParadigmaMusik, Reposal and Minisketch. His tracks have already been played by today’s hippest Dj’s and producers: ANJA SHNEIDER, ADAM BEYER, DAN GHENACIA, JONA, DJ T, MANDY, DAVID SQUILLACE, MARTIN EYERER, MARKO NASTIC, DJ MISJAH and more.

Drawing from influences of house, hip hop and beyond, Crookers blend their beats with the kind of fidget house finesse that gives Potty Mouth Music its soiled swagger. Since 2003, DJs Phra and Bot have been drawing upon their collective musical backgrounds to create tracks that twist, startle and surprise with synthetic pop.
Before their collaboration as Crookers, Bot and Phra pursued their music interests on a separate tip. Bot took up the piano and guitar at an early age, later moving onto synths, turntables and sequencers. Phra had already started DJing by age 11, when he was introduced to the Italian hip hop scene. Soon, he morphed into an MC and became fully immersed in a culture that would shape his future production career.
"Both of us started getting more involved in music when we used to listen to hip hop," Phra says. When the two artists met, both were trying to branch out of their genre success and explore dance music. The experiment worked. "It felt natural to team up, seeing that we had the same musical tastes ... which isn’t that easy here in Milan," he says.
Crookers have sleazed out dance floors with a catalogue of original tracks, but it’s their work as remixers that have made them one of the most after batteries in the business. Currently, the duo is reworking tracks for the likes of The Chemical Brothers, Arman Van Helden, Bonde do Role, Brodinski, Magik Johnson and Bumblebeez. Listen for their forth coming, debut album to feature other fidget house favorites, including Edu K, Steed Lord, Joyce Muniz and Miss Odd Kidd and others.
When Crookers are not crafting their dirty (crooked) beats in the studio, they are busy holding down their residency with MTV (Italy). "House and hip hop are our main influences, but we try to put all the things we like in our productions. We listen to a lot of music from very different periods and genres."
The result is a twisted blend of glitch, tech and distortion.
