Snap!
Snap! is also an album by The Jam. For the slang expression, see Oh, Snap! Snap! is an electronic music project created by German producers Michael Münzing and Luca Anzilotti. However, due to the general public's preconceived notions of German music, they decided to credit their work as Benito Benites and John "Virgo" Garrett III, and, as Frank Farian had done with Boney M and Milli Vanilli, hired different singers to front the group's live appearances.
