Welcome back to the blog. Speakeasy Streets have dominated the top of the chart with massive hit "Sweet Deceit (Spekr Freks Remix)," for four weeks now. Keep reading to see if they stay on top for a fifth.
Wolfgang Lohr and Maskerade start off the Top 10 with, "Hit The Road Jack." It slips two spots to land at number 10.
Contessa Black and Mr Automatic move up to 9 with, "All The Good Girls Go To Hell."
LVDS slips with, "Wonderful You," to number 8.
Tape Five's, "Big Blue Swing," slips to number 7 trading places with, "Rapper's Delight," by Atom Smith, Burkey and Deploi at 6.
This week's Big Swinging Shoutout belongs to...
Lyre Le Temps
Swing Resistance
The new album from Lyre Le Temps is a great work of art. Lead singer, Ry'm's raspy voice compliments every instrument and like hanging out with friends, the songs on Swing Resistance are personal, fun, comfortable and pleasantly unpredictable with a nice balance between club bangers and sappy ballads.
Swing Resistance is on Believe Music.
Caravan Palace's US tour continued this week and their remake of 1977 Ram Jam hit, "Black Betty," stops at number 5. They also have numerous songs in their catalog trending, two of which enter the Top 50. "Russian," at 41 and, "Brotherswing," lands at 49.
Speakeasy Streets let go of their hold of #1 and fall to 4 with, "Sweet Deceit (Spekr Freks Remix)."
Top Swinging Entry in the Top 50 this week easily belongs to Swing Republic's new single, "Killer." The Adamski hit was made famous in the early 90s by Seal and later covered by George Michael and Sugababes. Now the song gets an Electro Swing version and blasts onto the chart at number 3. It features regular Swing Republic collaborator, Karina Kappal.
Dirty Honkers' funky hit, "Be My Love," reaches a new peak at 2.
And Electric Swing Circus jump to number 1 with, "Gravity." It's the group's ninth Top 10 and second Number 1. They topped the chart last May with, "Connected (Featurecast Remix).
