Big Blue (Electro Swing Thing #089)

Glenn Gatsby - Big Blue

ELECTRO SWING collaboration from 2 of the biggest names in the genre. This one’s a naughty little ear worm and quite the grower! https://idol-io.ffm.to/Wicked

Pianist, singer and award-winning song-writer LITTLE VIOLET follows up her hit debut album with yet another quality guest spot. PISK, the producer behind SWINGROWERS, a recent smash collab with JAMIE BERRY and official remixer to CARO EMERALD lends his unmistakable studio polish, in yet another single that shows the Electro Swing genre has a way to go yet before it’s swallowed up by aimless rehashes of the same formula. This is Fresh. Stand-out. Quality. Summer Pop.

Wicked - Instrumental

PiSk, Little Violet - Wicked (Instrumental)

They did it again! Continuing to surprise with fresh twists on ELECTRO SWING, here the London-based collective reinvent a well-loved post-war Italian classic by singer Fred Buscaglione. Out now: https://idol-io.ffm.to/welcometothecircus

The guest vocalist (whose voice you may recognise as the singing pianist in season 2 of WHITE LOTUS) specialises in recreating this popular period of pop, while the production from the usual studio team of music pros preserves all the character and cheeky charm of the original but updates it with lively horn charts and a house beat. File alongside Tu Vuo' Fa' L'Americano or Louis Prima REMIXED.

Welcome to the Circus

Che Bambola! (Electro Swing Version)

Out now

Swing Sonix - Che Bambola! (Electro Swing Version)

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!

13 More Songs for Halloween is the sequel to last year's first instalment of the 'Unlucky For Some' Halloween compilation series, bringing together some of the spookiest tracks from Freshly Squeezed's catalogue. Out now: https://idol-io.ffm.to/unluckyforsome-2

From the funky fusion of The Voodoo Trombone Quartet's "Voodoo Juju" to Swingrowers' recent Halloween Hit "I'm Gonna Scare the Pants Off You!", we have dived deep to find the sweet spot of classic seasonal electro-swing and some off-the-wall, genre-bending horrors. Play loud, if you dare!

Saving the best til last, THE SWING BOT drops the final part of his 3 HALLOWEEN offerings for 2024.

Leaving nothing to chance, HALLOWEEN is a full on ELECTRO SWING banger. Catchy and spooky in equal measure. Spooky, Creepy and fun. This is another fine, funky and quirky addition to themed seasonal playlists.
Just the right side of cheesy!


Unlucky for Some (13 More Songs for Halloween, Volume 2)

Halloween

The Swing Bot - Halloween

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.

Le Carousel

Swing Sonix - Le Carousel

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

One of the most consistent and prolific producers in the Electro Swing world, classically trained RIFF KITTEN pioneered a dark sub genre. Out now: https://idol-io.ffm.to/succubus

Halloween is his time of year & this 2 track single is no exception. Side A is the kind of vocal powered mid tempo groover he's best known for. Moody Tim Burtonesque vocals and sexy saxophone over deep electronic bass.

Succubus

 "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

The prolific Swing Bot drops this years seasonal HALLOWEEN double A sided single adding to his growing catalogue of spooky sounds. Out now: https://ffm.to/retrospook

'Retro Spook' is a straight-ahead Swing House vintage inspired crooner song about October 31st.
