Kraak & Smaak – That’s Our Word EP

2008 will be the year Kraak & Smaak break through to the big time. Having already previewed the club side of what we can expect from their forthcoming album with their last EP (Funk ass Rotator / Mad as Hell), the dutch trio now show the flipside of their ill behaviour with a distinctive leftfield EP featuring Stones Throw hero Dudley Perkins and 80´s Jazz legend Carmel on vocal duties.



”That´s My Word” is a heavy funk-hop cut featuring the distinctive vocals of out-there rapper Dudley Perkins. ”We Love Stones Throw and Dudley in particular so it was a real privilege to have him lay down the lyrics on this track. His stream of consciousness style is completely his own but welded to a K&S beat, it´s tight” says Wim Plug from K&S HQ in Leiden. ”And Carmel is a voice that I have loved since the 80´s so getting her on board really made my year” says Oscar. ”I love doing deep emotional film score music and she has the perfect voice for it. I´m sending our manager to Hollywood to track down David Lynch and get it into his next film”. ”Cornered is my pet project” says Mark ”It´s exactly the kind of track I´ve been using to set the mood for our more experimental DJ sets and I really wanted to have something like this on the album. The clarinet that drives the track is just this beautiful eerie sound but with the drums underneath�. Wow”.



The band are currently touring Holland with their new material before they release their new album and first proper single in March 08.
