Welcome back to the iSwing Top 40. Swingrowers landed their latest bopper, "Hybrid," on top of the chart last week. Will the Electro Swing legends hang on for a second week? Keep reading.
Six new arrivals this week. First up at 40 is Wolfgang Lohr with his latest, "Re-Ain't She Sweet." Wolfgang and InControl took their version of the song to number 4 back in 2016.
Odd Chap and Bunny whistle their way in at 38 with, "Whistle."
A third track from Duke Skellinton's, Devils Dames N' Debauchery EP makes it way to the 40. "Hit That," comes in at number 29. "Dames," and, "My Mind," featuring Alanna Lyes both topped the iSwing chart in the Spring.
Pokey LaFarge debuts at 25 with his second Top 40, "Bluebird." Pokey reached number 15 back in May with, "Fuck Me Up."
SugarBeats also score their second Top 40. Exactly three years ago this week, SugarBeats and High Step Society were sitting pretty at number 4 with, "Forever And Again."
This is what the top five looked like three years ago.

This week SugarBeats return with, "Different," featuring Liinks. It arrives at number 20.
Top Swinging Entry this week goes to crooner Matt Forbes. He adopts a more Pop flavoured sound on latest single, "Not For Me," and it slides in at number 18. Plus Matt is still climbing the chart with, "You're Nobody Til Somebody Loves You." It's sitting at number 14.
This week's Big Swinging Shoutout goes to...
....Westwood Recordings.
The popular series Westwood X Presents X's gets a Volume 6 from the Canadian music label. Bugle Bot leads the menagerie of artists on this fun album. Not heavy on Electro Swing but definitely Electro Swing friendly.
Up in the top 10, Szigeti Juli start it off. They move 18 to 10 to score their first Top 10. They put an Electro Swing twist on the Rufus and Chaka Khan classic, "Ain't Nobody," at number 10.
Musique Boutique stay at 9 for a second week with, "La Boutique De La Musique." It topped the chart earlier this month.
Varrick Frost climbs three positions to 8 with, "Lockdown." It's Varrick's fifth visit to our Top 10 this year.
Caravan Palace are climbing quick with, "Pluma." They jump to number 8 in their third week. Exactly a year ago they were sitting on top of the chart with the English version, "Plume."
Deladap and Melinda Stoika rebound back up into the Top 10 reaching a new peak. After slipping to number 12 last week, they climb back up to stop at 6 with, "Hello Hurry."
Basia climbs three spots to 5 with, "New Day For You (Reelsoul Remix)."
Balduin and Masha Ray take a step up to 4 with, "Dirty Dazzler (Balduin VIP Mix)."
And the top three remains unchanged. Wolfgang Lohr and Alanna Lyes are at 3 with, "Golden Twenties." SpekrFreks are at 2 with, "Roaring 2020's." And Swingrowers spend a second week on top with, "Hybrid."
Each of the top three songs is still gaining in points so it'll be interesting to see what the upper tier of the chart looks like next week.
