Electroswing

Yeah it's as strange as it sounds, well the genre has a very distinct sound and is very different from the usual genres right now. I've listened to it for a while now, but I've finally got around to digging a bit more into the genre and found some snazzy songs. I'm very curious to see if anyone else on the forum has heard it, and if you have, why not discuss it a bit here or share your favorite songs.

For starters, a popular band in the genre is Caravan Palace, the band has fabulously put together songs that are a joy to listen to.

Rock it for Me-Caravan Palace

This song is from their new album, and has a delightful music video.

Another well known electroswing artist, there is even a video of a guy dancing to this which is

Well I hope this thread has sparked some interest in anyone that has just found out the genre; because I personally think it's great.

Veece introduced me to this genre only a scant few days ago - I am well and truly very impressed with it. Recommendations, bring them.

A fellow electroswing fan? I love you for loving Parov Stelar. Have you ever heard Gokdfish - Get Busy Living? Quite the tune.

 

Best genre ~

I believe Dj Ravine did an electroswing mix a while ago, I'm not sure though. But the genre does sound similar x)

As far as I know it's a genre there (re)mixes old songs to hous-y tracks. Very amazing genre, indeed.

 

-Though, I must say I'm not a follower of this genre, but I might look into it a bit more x)

Actually yes he did, I saw the video I think yesterday while digging around youtube for new Electroswing.

I wasn't aware of Electroswing before this thread, but now that I am, I'm hooked. It's got a lost-in-time 40's edge with a modern hook that really sells it!

God, I love this stuff

 

I've only ever heard of these two artists though, are there any other ones out there?

I didn't even know Goldfish was electro-swing and I've listened to them for a while...
