Electro Swing!
Electro Swing! Posted on: 04.09.2012 by Lillia Datson Ask those who probably know best......Right, im doing a do with a Battle of Britain theme in a couple of weeks-Old scramble hut on an airfield, the lot. What i need is some recommendations for some Electro swing, to kick the party up a notch. Ive a couple of albums from itunes, but knowledge is pretty limited on the genre. The most famous track everyone knows is Gramaphondzie-why dont you, so something in that vein, or just tracks with swing samples etc. Im going to use the Audio Hijack software shown by mad zach to get some wacky 30'+40's samples to chuck in as well, for transitions between vastly different BPM's, as it seems Swing stuff can vary quite widely from 80-150! | |
| Gidget Dothard 04.02.2014 | Bumping this thread again. I'm new to London and getting increasingly hooked on electro-swing. Anyone fancy giving me a break? Please shout me up! http://www.mixcloud.com/GameboyRaver...mixdouchebags/ Here's my first attempt mixing the genre |

| Annemarie Beardall 05.01.2013 | BUMP! Thought we'd bump up this thread as we've just put up a free E.P of electro swing, swing hop and swing house amongst a few radio soundscapes. would greatly appreciate any opinions https://soundcloud.com/dott-slim/clown-got-your-tongue the others are in the feed at https://soundcloud.com/dott-slim x www.dottandslim.com |
| Debby Ramshur 06.10.2012 | Burlesque Musique (Label): Some decent stuff released there, especially the first three EPs. Supdub (Label): Sometimes more on the techy side of things, there are some good swingy releases on that label as well. See Dan Caster, Rene Bourgeois. Tracks: Stereo Express - La Vie En Rose (Original Mix) Horatio - Sing With A Swing (Original Mix) I Love that one! Swing Kids - Nonsense (Extended Mix) Will Gold - Swing Time (David Jones Edit) Dark Society - Swing Swing (Original Mix) Shazz - Jelly Belly feat. Suga Fix (Swing Republic Remix) and of course Shemian's Jazzylicious Album. My favourites on there are Old Car and Happy Swingin'. Any details on when and where the party is? Sounds interesting. |
| Elizabet Sledz 05.10.2012 | I'm not really that familiar with E-Swing, but from listening to the posted sets I was reminded of Fatman |

| Lillia Datson 04.09.2012 | Thanks for the Links and things guys, exactly what im looking for! @Ed_ loving those soundcloud mixes mate. |
| Charise Straniero 04.09.2012 | maybe you like our remix we did a month ago: and here one of my favorites: |
| Danae Dumler 03.09.2012 | There's a couple other threads on this; maybe someone should make a sticky with all the relevant links on it... Anyway here's my mixes - http://soundcloud.com/djproben/swingset and http://soundcloud.com/djproben/swing-daddy-o Look up Prohibition Groove from 1994, or old Greenskeepers, or anything on the G-Swing label if you want an earlier take on this style. There was also a label called "Electro-Swing" for a minute that did something very different with this sound; it's still (mostly) house tempo electronic (and some dnb thrown in) but much more emphasis on making pieces of music that stand on their own rather than just chopped up samples. |
| Golden Faubert 03.09.2012 | love all of them!! |
| Racquel Dat 03.09.2012 | Caravan Palace is pretty bad ass, too: |
| Makkins Clifton 03.09.2012 | Although people claim it is already dead in Berlin I spun Electro-Swing at two gigs recently and people loved it. It will be definitely hot for another year or two. |
