iSwing Top 50
March 13, 2022
Welcome back to the blog. Electric Swing Circus kept their hit, "Gravity," on top of last week's chart for a third frame. Keep reading to see if they stay on top for a fourth week.
"I Got The Bug," from Riff Kitten starts the Top 10 countdown this week. It moves up from 16.
Extra Medium is above Riff at 9 with the ultra groovy, "Trumpet Boy."
Wolfgang Lohr and Maskerade slip to number 8 with, "Hit The Road Jack."
And rebounding back into the Top 10 are Ella Fitzgerald and Chick Webb. "Rock It For Me (Duke Skellington Remix)," steps up from 11 to stop at 7.
The Top Swinging Entry in the Top 50 this week easily belongs to Deladap and Wolfgang Lohr with their latest collaboration, "Easy Kiss." Their new banger flies in at 19.
Balduin and Kate Thomas edge up to number 6 with their latest hit, "Hep Cat Boogie."
And DJ Mibor, Wolfgang Lohr & Offbeat climb to 5 with, "Very Nice People."
This week's Big Swinging Shoutout goes to...
Swing'It
The Story Of Storyville
Step back in time one hundred years. Swing'It are inspired by the sound of roaring 20s New Orleans, and have easily smashed out some of the freshest radio and club hits in the last couple years. "Booze Cruise," and, "Champagne," are a party must have. Other ditties on the album have a Louis Armstrong remixed kinda feel. And their collaboration, "Party Like It's 1923," with Teminite, is now a legendary floor filler. They give us a taste of the original version to finish off the album.
The Story Of Storyville is on Swing'It.
"Brotherswing," from Caravan Palace climbs to number 4 this week.
Contessa Black and Mr Automatic are still slowly climbing. They move to 3 with, "All The Good Girls Go To Hell."
The Electric Swing Circus give up the throne and slip to number 2 with, "Gravity."
And "Killer," from Swing Republic and Karina Kappal jumps to number 1.

Visit again to see if, "Gravity," remains on top of the chart for fourth week.
Just a side note, from now on I'll be including tracks on the chart that aren't available on Spotify. I'll mark them with a (*). Only changing the policy to include more great music from artists who are not on Spotify. Special remixes, trending songs, and artists don't have their entire catalog on the music sight. Around 15 to 20 percent of songs for chart consideration aren't on the major music platform, so the change is most welcome after a year of just charting tracks only available on the Spotify sight. First track flying up the chart is the ProleteR remix or tribute of Nina Simone's, "Feeling Good."
Until next week, keep swinging for the stars.
