Watch & Listen To This: The Jam!!!!!!!
Filed under: Listen To This
We've got a new anthem, y'all!!!!!!!!
Say hello to Kraak & Smaak, one of the hottest groups around!
Hailing from the Netherlands, their music could best be described as Amy Winehouse meets Moby.
Their sound is an exploration in soul, funk, dance, electro and breakbeat.
In other words, Kraak & Smaak are fucking amazing!!!!!!!
CLICK HERE to enjoy the delicious Squeeze Me, which has an equally mouth-watering video.
Justice are SO last year. It's all about Kraak & Smaak!

JUSTICE IS AMAZING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
HOT HOT HOT - I LOVE THIS SONG!! The video is just OK though, but the song? Amazing. Thanks 4 sharing Perez!
FIRST. and. So what????? this website isn't as fierce as it was. Don't talk smack Justice. C'mon Perez, change it up a bit. update the website or something…
Crack and Smack? What the hot hell is that about?
me likes
O my, I screwed them all.
JUSTICE IS SOOO NOT LAST YEAR.
HOLLAND RULEZZZZ
PEREZ! OPERATOR PLEASE WAS ON CSI: NY LAST NIGHT!
This is definitely more like Lenny Kravitz than Amy Winehouse…
THEYRE AWESOME
This is awesome!!! I love flip books!
This is just terrible. I was waiting for it to get good and it just kept getting more and more repetitive and boring. Just AWFUL. A kid could have composed this. SO glad I have some taste.
Re: katie! – Great Katie! Because Flip books are what good music is all about.
LOVE IT
Ok, kraak does not mean crack
it means to squat (or to crack (something)). Smaak does not mean smack, smaak actually means taste, and Kraak & Smaak sure do have some taste. I love this video! Thanks, Perez, for representing a little bit of The Netherlands on your site! (and yes for all you dumbasses on this site, Holland (that little country near Germany) is the same as The Netherlands…)
fucking brilliant! nice work perez…..they rock!
kraak and smaak are like a drug.
oh perez. i've known about this band for ages. get with it!
justice is set the precedent, how can you compare? this is garbage
justice set the precedent, how can you compare? this is garbage
AY I LIKED DA SONG IT WAS COO……
BRILIANT
Firstly, this has been around for ages. Secondly, Kraak and Smaak sound nothing like Justice!
they sound exactly like jamie lidell…..
Also, am I right in thinking you get all your songs from the radio one playlist? You should really credit them mate.
I dig both Kraak & Smaak AND Justice
……but theyre completely different styles, Perez.
Not all electronic music is the same.
(And for the record, K&S have been around a lot longer)
Ever heard of the Pasadenas?…total rip off!!!
ssstttellllarr!!! LOVE THIS.. THANKS AGAIN PEREZ!
Re: rfte –
yeah that shows how much you know perez since when does a band like Justice go out of style?
nou ja, dat was leuk. Amy Wijnhuis, ik denk van niet.
Nederlandse mannen zijn gewoon stomme kutwijven
oh my gosh… are you clueless this video is great, and the director has done some other great stuff as well! i love justice as well! i think there's room for both…
Re: More like Blood, Sweat and Tears meets Disco trash –
Completely agree. PS: There's no comparison between Justice and these Douchebags. Puh-leese!
i'm a dj kraak & smaak have been putting tracks out for a while now mostly breakbeat so definitely not the stuff you post on your site. this song isn't actually even close to their best work.
if you want one of their better tracks listen to "money in the bag" (sharam jey rmx in particular)
try expanding your horizons beyond justice perez!
I knew about them last year…. duh…
Kraak n' Smack R whack!
you need to work under a a&r veteran, he will help you understand what is hot and what is not, if you pick to many bombs you will be out of the business.
good luck
Jamiroquai like
Biterz!11!!! I had twin cats named crack and smack 10 yrs. ago.
Biterz!11!!! I had twin cats named crack and smack 10 yrs ago.
It's Good, I like it!!!!
Jamie Lidell is WAY better!!!!
…..MEETS JAMIROQUAI
HEY, THANKS PEREZ FOR ALL THE AWESOME MUSIC I FIND THRU YOU, LIKE ROISIN MURPHY, MOLOKO, ROBYN, AND NOW KRAAK AND SMAAK….
TY TYTY TY TY
IM NOT EVEN GOING TO DIG-NA-FI THAT
perez… the music videos you post are becoming much too predictable, with the expeption of this one. is this really what you like? this is the first track that doesn't have a shitty euro beat or isn't a washed up "diva".. if by diva, you mean "has been", or poorly selling, aging recording artist. even that label is generous. it honestly can't be homogenous, as a heterosexual man, to like those women. please.
excuse me???????????????
i love justice!
Re: Anna – remove stick from butt then comment. Thanks. I wasnt worried about the music. I just liked the flip book thing. It was a cool video idea. eat it!
why the comparison to MOBY? Moby sucks. these guys are wicked
loving it SICK!
Dude! I've known about this band for awhile. They're great. KCRW plays them all the time…
nice one P, they're really good!
VIDEO = AWESOME
kraak and smack is not exactly new or fresh perez
awesome!!!
love it.
this song features ben westbeech, whose album "welcome to the best years of your life" is phenomenal. also probably why there are some jamie lidell comparisons.
all of which: amazing.
Totally boring. I was thinking you had insight and taste but you missed the mark this BIG time. Might be good under the influence in a bar maybe…. but that's about it.
This band WAS from last year. I was listening to them at the same time I was listening to Justice.
Re: yeahyeahyeah – Haha, they do. They're are one of Jason Bentley's favorites! Nice call, yeahyeahyeah!
The speed is too slow!!!!
And I have no time to wait!!!!
Perez you are such an idiot. This is good but it is NOT Amy Winehouse meets Moby. You are so sure that you get it but you just don't. And I"m sure you sit there like "fuck haters" or whatever but the truth is you're not NEARLY as great as you or a lot of people make you out to be. There are so many BETTER FUNNIER bloggers out ther that SUPPORT each other. I think it's funny how you think you're on top of shit but that you're having your fifteen minutes just like everybody else. I like how a long time ago you posted that Gabrielle Union had this quote about you where she said that you don't "dog" on your own people. What she meant was the latinos. Well you "dog" on gay people all the time. You insist people come out. You posted that video of gays fighting awhile back too. That shit is NOT COOL. It is NOT good for the community. Coming out is a personal process that EVERYONE goes through differently and it is NOT FAIR for you to call people out like that. Not everyone has the support that you do. I really hope you read this because you know I'm not just some idiot. I think a lot of the stuff you're doing is terrible. That's all I have to say.
This song is a RIP OFF again..HAS NO ONE ANY TALENT ANYMORE?
the song good the video amazing. the concept out of this world!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
kraak & smaak is dutch, it means 'break & taste'
What boring drivel - no wonder Warner passed on Perexxx's "record deal." His taste is as bad as his penchant for self-promotion.
Holy shit! My time machine works! It's 2001 and I'm listening to Fatboy Slim!
Justice are the future, asshole.
Kraak & Smaak, means Crack(not thát crack) and Taste!! I'm dutch. They are gonna be the happiest persons on earth, that perez featured them…. hear the cashflow…!
now, this is something else………… niiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiceeeeeeeeeeeeee!!!!!!!
Alle goede dingen komen uit nederland niet waar?
w00t w00t
Kraak and Smaak is a dutch expression. Kraak is crack as in breaking a cookie in half, Smaak is flavor. It shouldn't be translated literally, the expression "kraak en smaak" means something is fresh and has flavor.
It's OK, but let's be
