studio album

kraak & smaaks new album *chrome waves* is already off to a flying start with debut single *the future is yours* topping club charts in the uk and germany and getting the coveted tune of the month accolade in mixmag. featuring ben westbeech on vocals and with a righteous summer groove that has made it a big ibiza hit, the track is a positive and uplifting vocal house anthem at a time when much of the scene is going deeper underground.

&apos’s music veers between abstract, experimental compositions and more beat driven tracks, all held together by a defined aesthetic of sonic impurities and random patterns thrown up by algorithmic computations. in &apos’s music compositional decisions are not merely reliant on himself but also on a range of processes from constrained randomness to full fledged neural networks. that is to say, the ‘instruments’ he creates have -to a certain extent- a mind of their own. there will always be a dynamic between the musician and something else that triggers, proposes or decides what will happen to the music.it is exactly from this human-machine interaction that &apos extrapolates his musical ideas that are both intricate and detailed while never losing an overall sense of emotional value. his first solo project ‘lichtdrank’ is a selection of four tracks made during his time studying sonology at the hague’s royal conservatory and the time following. it is the third and final installment of bepotel s startuplabel trilogy. previously, he has released music together with walrus and sagat under several musical projects like smaakwaterval and bepotel. the artwork of the lichtdrank ep is based on screenshots from an interactive multiplayer video game where the musical universe of &apos can be explored.

dutch disco dons kraak&smaak make their debut on razor-n-tape with a pair of boogie originals pressed to wax for the first time ever, featuring two remix gems from ben sun and tiger & woods! the soulful vibes run deep on way back home, with ben sun and t&w taking us to frankie and shepp town, respectively, on their mixes. and with its synthy uptempo disco stomp, seb s party rounds out this wonderfully varied 4-tracker perfectly.

juicy fruit is as succulent as the name suggests - a feast of flavour served up by dutch masters kraak & smaak. their fifth studio album is one that sees them sonically revisiting the roots of their first releases, producing an organic and warm electronic disco and funk album packed with hot property collaborators including mayer hawthorne, eric biddines of golden rules, parcels, gallowstreet and cleopold to name a few. effortlessly flitting between outright dancefloor boogie and meditative mellow moments it s a record that captivates the listener from start to finish, blending the timeless appeal of disco and electro with the best in indie dance and electronica.

following the great success of dam swindles boxed out album we present you the second single take out. their collaboration with mayer hawthorne on 64 ways already gained massive support from djs and radio stations around the globe in the past weeks and were proud to present you this remix pack with none other than kerri chandler, kraak & smaak and dam swindles remix of dam swindle.

this vinyl release brings together first class remixes taken from the singles, the future is yours and good for the city - which features sam duckworth of get cape wear cape fly fame. first up on the a-side from solomuns diynamic crew is adriatique. the duo were big fans of the future is yours, featured it on the diynamic podcast and got in touch with the kraakers to say they would be up for remixing the song. the result is deep house heaven and a summer terrace stalwart. next up is portuguese disco don moullinexs take which lays down a classic disco style and vibe in the mix.

limited 12 inch picture disc in support of record store day 2013!
kraak & smaak are laying claim to 2013 as their year with the incredible hype generated by the future is yours - the debut single from the fourth studio album due later in 2013. the single which has ben westbeech on vocals has hit number 1 in the dmc buzz chart / tune of the month in mixmag / dmc single of the week and has been getting support from key tastemakers from london to amsterdam to la. remixes on the vinyl come courtesy of londoners futurizm who put the bass in the place with a slo mo version that has been getting djs twitchy and xlr8r fave ambassadeurs delivers a leftfield bass twister that shows why he is one of the most hotly tipped producers of 2013. kraak & smaak are staunch supporters of record store day being involved in the record shop business themselves and as prolific vinyl collectors.

excellent 12 inch with a heavy deep house monster on the a side and a freah disco break on the flip side

second set of remixes for this genre straddling track, featuring the vocal talents of soul sensation in waiting, ben westbeech. marrying the kraakers future funk and hip hop beats with a sensational perfomance from the young bristolian made this track a sure bet as the first choice single although the band did release a couple of warm up eps to remind everyone why their debut album boogie angst was a worldwide success. here trevor loveys, mainstay of the dubsided label, originator of the fidget house sound alongside switch, sinden and jesse rose and partner of herve in the huge selling speakerjunk project, turns in a hot vocal remix that pumps the track towards a different dancefloor altogether. he also found time to serve up a tasty dub that neatly crosses the divide between bassline and techy fidget house. one for the festivals this summer no doubt!
