Don't think we have a forum up for this. Just discovering it myself but

and

are p. awesome. General idea is take big band/20s/30s material and add bass/modern backing tracks or w/e with a beat. It becomes amazingly awesome imo.

Anyone familiar with this genre and have any other good tracks to suggest?

[fffuuu]

not bad.


more of the second artist, Parov Stelar.

Chambermaid swing is what got me hooked on some of this stuff, its owns hard! This whole genre has a habit of getting people to shake their asses involuntarily - its a good thing.

I am p. jelleh. Tell me how they are plse ;)

[Don Pellegrino]

The show was awesome, I give it a tie at #1 (with Grendel) for best show I've ever seen.

I think they were a bit shocked by how reactive (AND LOUD) the crowd was.
The analogue synth was easily twice as loud as it is in that live Clash video I posted. It was dancy as fuck but unfortunatly the room was packed so it was hard to move :(

saw Parov Stelar band live, was amazing :D

[Mrenda]

Im probably going to a 20s night tomorrow with a big band band followed by a dj doing an electro swing set. I need to get home and listen to the stuff in this thread.

[LordsServant]

Fuuuuuck I wanna see CP or PS live sooooooo bad ><

FFS I gotta figure out when they're playing next near me.

(I am also slightly drunk atm, but damn these ppl are AMAZING!)

[Ted Breakers]

Caught the end of Caravan Palaces set at Secret Garden Party.

Thought it was shit (i like most electro/swing) found it very commercial, to much electro not enough swing...

I had just come from Krafty Kuts Vs. A Skillz on 4 Decks with Dynamite MC though so i woulda probably thought a live Beethoven recital by the man himself woulda been lackluster :P

[Tiny]

Many a fine tune ITT. I think this is the tune that made electoswing a thing.

[Pierre Arthos]

Krafty Kuts? Christ that takes me back, one of the best nights clubbing I ever had was seeing him at Airtight in Manchester.

An old mate of mine, who is an amazing drummer, is now in a "Nu Skool Swing" band with one of the guys from Koma & Bones. See what you think to this:
http://soundcloud.com/soundassembly "Freak Me" is my favourite track.
