The Week In Electro Swing

Electro Swing This Week (11)

Nobody does Halloween Like Electro Swingers

Madam Misfit teams with Victor And The Bully on new track, "Trick Or Treat." It's an absolutely delicious banger about an event that so many look forward to every year, trick or treating.
Check out the fun lyric video.

Youtuber, Tom BetGeorge's latest light show features Electro Swing. The 20 minute viral Halloween clip begins with Andrew Gold's version of "Spooky Scary Skeletons," and the light show mesmerizes and continues with a variety of Pop music standards and of course, more lights. Definitely on another level.
Check out the clip below

Dave Wave takes on Pooh. Literally. The popular artist known for taking iconic soundtrack songs and remixing them for an Electro Swing audience is back. The producer has tackled Dumbo, The Aristocats, Star Wars, Peaky Blinders, Aladdin and now he gives, "Heffalumps And Woozles," from Winnie The Pooh, a smoking hot reworking. The video is pretty epic as well.

Lyre Le Temps announced their upcoming tour for 2022, Swing Resistance. The new tour kicks off in January. Lyric video for latest single, "Dump You," can be see below.

Producer Kormac just nailed a great gig for the spy thriller Red Election. It's a ten episode spy series featuring the producer's original music.

Kormac's, "Wash My Hands," is a legendary song in the Electro Swing community and has been sampled and remixed into numerous hits.

Have a safe and swingin' Halloween weekend.

The Week In Electro Swing

Electro Swing This Week (10)

Emma Clair Exits Prohibition

I'm a couple weeks behind on dishin' the tea about the Electro Swing community and have some catching up to do.
Emma Clair exiting Prohibition is by far the biggest Electro Swing news of the last couple of weeks. The popular DJ/Producer will no longer be running and organizing events. The news came as a shock to fans and those in the industry and social media traffic was in gridlock showing support for the popular DJ/Producer's future endeavors.
Emma Clair just released the Swing Sisters Volume One album a few weeks ago so the news came as a big surprise. The album features Emma, Dani Minogue, Alanna Lyes, Tallulah Goodtimes, Madam Misfit, Natalie Nightingale and more.
Emma has established herself well in the Electro Swing and House music scene so we have no doubt we'll be hearing more from her.
Good luck Emma.

Shindig Festival Tutti Fruitti Weekender takes place over the weekend. The festival features a wide variety of entertainment like pool parties, roller disco and shopping across the weekend, and features a nice range of musical acts including Dutty Moonshine, WBBL and The Cuban Brothers. Have fun folks.

Postmodern Jukebox and Haley Reinhart dethrone Little Violet from the top of the iSwing chart. Four weeks Little Violet spent at #1 with, "Code Red," and she replaced herself at the top with, "Roll The Dice," for a total of five weeks at Number 1.
The Postmodern Jukebox tour opened in Detroit recently and continues its way through the United States, Canada and followed by Europe.

Love For Sale, Tony Bennett and Lady Gaga's latest collaborative album just dropped. The album covers the catalog of Cole Porter and the pair are absolutely charming together. Tony's voice is frail and clearly doesn't know how to mess up a song's delivery. Gaga can clearly belt out some of the works but tones it down to compliment Tony. Love For Sale is on sale now.

Parov Stelar announced his latest European tour. Parov is promising an exciting new visual and sound experience and he always delivers. Venom Tour 2022 starts in Milan and finishes in Moscow. Hopefully this means new music to.
Check out tour dates.

Ori Dagan and Simone Denny Jazz up The Buggles' very popular song, "Video Killed The Radio Star." The pair dropped a pretty clever animated video that absolutely kills it and features a not to be missed alien Jazz band.
Check out the video for yourself.

Cheers to High Step Society. They have their latest track, "Sweet Tooth," featured on new compilation album Portal from David Starfire. The album features some dark edgy electronic tracks that compliment High Step Society's sexy addictive, "Sweet Tooth." High Step Society have been in the iSwing Top 10 for three weeks now with, "Sweet Tooth."

Welcome back to the countdown. Little Violet's, "Code Red," topped the chart for a fourth week last week. Keep reading to see if Little Violet hangs on to Number 1 for a fifth week.
We'll start the Top 10 with this week's Top Swinging Entry. "Spooky Scary Skeletons," the Halloween collaboration from Betty Booom and Ashley Slater arrives at number 10 in the Top 50.
The Swing Bot scores a double whammy this week. The first single, "About You," from the mysterious mustache's upcoming album steps up to 9 from 14. And second single, "Burlesque Distortion," is at number 7 for another week. Third single, "Gram Off On," debuts down at 50.
High Step Society and Free Creatures slip to number 8 with, "Sweet Tooth."
Little Violet's "All The World's A Stage," jumps to number 6. And sadly her reign at Number 1 is over. "Code Red," drops to number 5.
This week's Big Swinging Shoutout goes to...

The Allergies
Promised Land
The Allergies last album, Say The Word, was an exceptional take on the current Funk music situation with a beautifully designed package. Promised Land, easily bests their last album. The old school samples are more danceable, the beats are unbeatable and yes it's even funkier.
Promised Land is on Jalapeno Records.
Back in the Top 10, Deladap, Wolfgang Lohr and Melinda Stoika are sitting at number 4 with their delicious, "Cream Soda."
DJ Mibor's, "You're Driving Me Crazy," steps up to 3.

October 3, 2021

Welcome back. Little Violet's, "Code Red," topped the chart for a third week last week. Keep reading to see if she hangs on to Number 1 for a fourth week.
But first the Top 10, and dropping to 10 is Mista Trick with festival hit, "Shambala."
Little Violet scores another Top 10 from her Code Red album. "All The World's A Stage," jumps to number 9.
Balduin and Sue's, "Hangover," climbs to 8.
Everyone's favourite anonymous mustache, Swing Bot returns with, "Burlesque Distortion." It climbs to number 7.
And the last of the new entries to the Top 10 is Odd Chap's, "All That Jazz."
The Top Swinging Entry in the Top 50 this week belongs to the haunting, "Friends & Enemies," from LVDS and Iolanda Boban at number 18.
This week's Big Swinging Shoutout goes to...

Klischee
Late Check-Out
Finally bringing their best bangers of the last few years together, Klischee bring us Late Check-Out. With the exception of a few new tracks to grow on us, this is a pretty solid album. "Mais Non," is here, as well as, "By Your Side," and, "Bad Things." "Swing It Like Roger," still sounds as fresh today.
Late Check-Out is on Steretyp GmbH & Capatino Music.
Klischee's, "Le Weekend," climbs to number 42 this week.
High Step Society and Free Creatures step up to number 5 with, "Sweet Tooth."
DJ Mibor's, "You're Driving Me Crazy," stays at 4 for a second week.
Deladap, Wolfgang Lohr and Melinda Stoika jump to 3 with the delicious, "Cream Soda."

The Week In Electro Swing

The Week In ElectrElectro Swing (9)

Swingrowers "Butterfly" Reaches 6 Million Views

Swingrowers' video for, "Butterfly," reached 6 million views on Youtube. The song is so fun, addictive and has been known to get people hooked on Electro Swing. Might as well start working on 7 million. Check out the video.

Emma Clair's Swing Sisters Volume One album dropped this week. It features Emma Clair, Alanna Lyes, Tallulah Goodtimes, Madam Misfit, Natalie Nightingale and more. Get ready to party, these are the speakeasy bangers our grandmother warned us about.
Swing Sisters Volume One is on Prohibition.

Anyone ready for Christmas music? Singer Morgan James announced a Christmas record for the upcoming season and we're excited for her special take on the material. It's called A Very Magnetic Christmas and if you pre-order the signed cd, you get an automatic download.

Postmodern Jukebox and Piper Jones cover Olivia Rodrigo's, "Driver's License," in a new video. It's a cool jazzy 50s take on the 2021 Pop hit. You can check out Postmodern Jukebox on tour soon. The Postmodern Jukebox Grand Reopening Tour opens October 7 in Detroit.

Postmodern Jukebox also continue to battle for the top spot on the iSwing Chart. Featuring Haley Reinhart, their "Don't Speak," cover has been the only competition for Little Violet's, "Code Red." It just might hit Number 1 by the time the Postmodern Jukebox tour opens in Detroit next week.

Another Postmodern Jukebox alumni, Casey Abrams, opened for legend Dionne Warwick on Friday in Newport Beach at the Hyatt Regency. I know Casey only opened for Dionne but his rough raspy voice contrasted with the soulful one of Dionne's would make an epic duet.
