Stuck Up There is the latest instalment in The Fritz's exploration through  obscure jazz records and 1960s sci-fi. With a melancholy sample, the tune tells the story of a group of astronauts who are unable to get home after their  spaceship breaks down on the Moon.  
As the vocal sings 'misery, you've got to go', the astronauts look back at Earth  and lament that they'll never be able to describe the beauty of the view to  anyone back home.  
Coupled with Fritz's unique drum sound and crisp production, this latest  release form Ragtime Records is surely destined to get Stuck Up There after  you've played it through your headphones. 

The Fritz 
Hailing from Falmouth, UK, The Fritz is known for his jazzy sample-based lo-fi  glitchy bangers. Always digging deep, his works give a nod to the Golden Era  of Hip Hop with a boom bap style and blend of vintage film noir samples.

Will You Have A Cigar?

Brand new on the roster is Liverpudlian burlesque star turned Electro Swing singer. Her first single Entrée is out now: https://idol-io.ffm.to/entree

Working with established producer Joe Rodwell (Mista Trick, Sonia Elisheva, Elle & The Pocket Belles) Daisy comes with an extensive social media network including 25k IG followers. She balances a cheeky wit with an easy going sexiness which - when we get to them - shine through in her lyrics and vocals.

Entrée, as the name suggests, is a teaser of a song (the intro to her live shows) that sets the stage with a dirty jazz brass riff and dubstep sub bass. Watch this space!

Entrée

Out now

Daisy DeVell - Entrée

London based Electro Swing collective (of soundtrack professionals) drop the final single before their debut album. Le Carousel includes the 2 previous singles & features an Accordion & French lyric about an ill-fated love affair. Out now: https://idol-io.ffm.to/welcometothecircus

This super catchy tune sounds like a cover but is actually an original... Swing Sonix stand out from the crowd with the sheer quality of their songwriting and clarity of vision. In less than a year they have become serious scenesters with a live incarnation coming soon.

Welcome to the Circus

Say What (2019)

Cut Capers - Say What (2019)

The 2nd single from Liverpudlian burlesque star come Electro Swing singer DAISY DEVELL takes a first bite of the cherry with her debut vocal. Out now: https://idol-io.ffm.to/lapetitemort

This cheeky HALLOWEEN romp lays the groundwork for a full album with some massive bangers to come... but for now, we're enjoying the freedom of creating an electro jazz hybrid w squonky horns, unexpected tempo changes & hints of sexual liberation.

As you can see from the cover, DAISY has both the looks & style to steal her share of the genre limelight.

La Petite Mort

Daisy DeVell - La Petite Mort

 "Dead and buried", sings Alanna as label mates collaborate on downtempo, Halloween-timed dark electro swing jazzer. More Peaky Blinders mood than Great Gatsby party. Out now: https://idol-io.ffm.to/badblood

Violin is an oft overlooked sound in traditional vintage swing (think Django Reinhardt & Stephane Grappelli) but is revived here as a featured solo instrument.

Combined with a bitter break-up lyric & Atom's distinctive electronic production, this is the perfect antidote to Halloween cliches elsewhere & will be played long after.


Bad Blood

Atom Smith, Alanna Lyes - Bad Blood

Out now: https://idol-io.ffm.to/welcometothecircus

The album itself includes all the swinging accordion, pop brass, and theatrical storytelling you'd expect. Brilliantly realised, impeccably polished and whimsical, with a Burtonesque flourish...

One-off electro swing cover version of the 80's hit by Adam & The Ants. Out now: https://idol-io.ffm.to/goodytwoshoes

In-demand producer Atom Smith collaborates with the all-girl vintage swing 3 piece known mainly for their live performances at retro events in and around California.

What if the Andrews Sisters collaborated with Depeche Mode adding a slice of Count Basie Horns for good measure... the lyric of course is a sly reference to sex. Super catchy and staying just the right side of kitsch.
