Fan community
NUCROOZE – Fan Community for Crooze FM Listeners. Smooth Jazz, Soul and Lounge Playlists.
For Everyone Who Misses Crooze Radio
When Crooze FM – Belgium's most-loved smooth jazz and lounge
broadcaster - went silent, it didn't just
end a radio station. It ended a daily ritual for tens of thousands of listeners across
Flanders and beyond.
NUCROOZE is an independent fan community keeping that sound and spirit
alive - through handpicked playlists, shared taste, and the hope of something bigger.
If you loved that music, you've just found your people.
Want the radio back?
Leave your email and we'll send you our curated Spotify mix — handpicked tracks in the spirit of the music you've been missing. Be first to know if the community grows into something more.
What's our music taste
Why this exists
Some music deserves a permanent home
For twenty years, Crooze curated something rare: a music-only station that never chased trends, never talked over the music, and never compromised on taste. Smooth jazz, acid jazz, soul, funk, Latin, lounge — played with the confidence of people who simply knew what was good.
That kind of curation doesn't disappear because a broadcast licence expires. The music is still out there. The ears that love it are still out there. NUCROOZE exists to bring both together again.
We are not affiliated with the original Crooze, its founders, or its former owners. We are listeners — just like you — who believe this genre deserves a community.
Who this is for
People with uncommon taste in music
You had Crooze playing in the background while you worked. On a Saturday morning with coffee. On a long drive through Flanders. It wasn't background noise — it was atmosphere, carefully chosen.
If you've been searching for music like Crooze FM, frustrated that no algorithm quite captures it, and quietly disappointed that crooze.eu now returns nothing — this community was built for you.
What could come next
An online radio station, built by listeners
The long-term ambition is simple: if enough fans find us, we build an independent online radio in the spirit of what Crooze FM represented — music-first, no compromise, curated with care.
It starts with this waitlist. Every email is a vote for the music.
