I am a working full-time musician, teaching, performing, composing, recording and arranging, and my gigs in the last few years have included jazz combo, big band jazz, folk, Irish traditional, rock, soul, latin, klezmer, funk, orchestral, chamber, minimal techno, musical theatre and more, so, safe to say, I’ll have a go at anything. 

I'm a firm believer in demolishing boundaries between genres, cultures, languages and ultimately people, and Soundcloud is a terrific place where all this can happen.

Typoboy, est connu pour avoir été le 1er Dj electro à mixer exclusivement de l'Electro Swing en France, c'est aussi l'initiateur des premières soirées entièrement dédiées à ce son et l'un des 4 membres fondateurs de l'Electro Swing Club. 

Son style de DJing unique est appelé Gangsta Swing. Il contient : un quart de mashups de Hip-Hop, un quart de Swing House sautillante et un demi de bootlegs électro et rétro à la fois. Typoboy augmente ses représentations d’une dimension électro-acoustique car il est souvent accompagné d’un saxophoniste virtuose avec lequel il interagit en temps réel. Ce cocktail produit l'effet d'une bombe dansante sur les pistes des clubs. 

Toujours armé de son fidèle Holster à l'épaule, il reçoit chaque mois dans son bac la crème des promo copies en provenance du monde entier. Il révèle les groupes de cette nouvelle scène bouillonnante en les invitants à se produire à l'Electro Swing Club de Paris.  Un cigare coincé entre les dents, il sillonne l'Europe et se produit sur les scènes des festivals avec son improbable look de gangster des platines. Londres est sa deuxième maison et Berlin son terrain de jeux régulier. On le retrouve également dans l'univers du Burlesque (Cointreau Privé de Dita Van Teese, Cabaret des Filles de Joie de Juliette Dragon). 

Il a joué auprès de groupes et DJs tels que Lyre le Temps, G-Swing, Caravan Palace, Dirty Honkers, Algorythmik, Smokey Joe & the Kid, Horatio, JFTH, Mr. B the Gentleman Rhymer, Kitten & The Hip, Swing Zazou, Sound Assembly, Movits ! The Sweet Life Society, Professor Elemental ou encore Kormac pour ne citer que les plus célèbres.

Typoboy aka Tony Holster is a Parisian DJ in love with both traditional and electronic music. His first vinyl loves were scratching and mixing. His search for an authentic sound led to him falling into the cook-pot of swing and the mixture of these 3 major musical influences was to give birth to a DJ style all his own. As pioneer of the Electro Swing style in Paris, he started to practise and the Gangsta Swing was born (a blend of Hip-Hop mash-ups and jackin Swing House).

Electro Swing DJ T-Boy mixes records that take you back in time, to the days when Jazz wasn’t highbrow music and when the clubs were a thousand miles away from today’s sanitised versions. He also mixes underground swing house to make your toes wriggle. 

His style has moved on lately to include sounds from the Balkans of his youth. To listen to one of his mixes is to feel the power of brass and marching bands from New Orleans to the Balkans, underscored with the freshest bass-lines and electronic beats. It's the sound of the yesteryears (1920) with the production of the next decade (2020). 

T-Boy is one of the founders of Electro Swing Club International. he organizes Electro Swing Club de Paris, and he plays at major Electro Swing events throught Europe and for V.I.P. Burlesque events like Cointreau Privé by Dita Van Teese. 

He played at Nuits Sonores de Lyon (Biggest Electronic Music Festival in France), Bus Palladium, Proud Cabaret (London), La Machine du Moulin Rouge,  Espace Pierre Cardin, Salon d'Eté de Champagne Perrier & Jouet (London), Batofar, La Bellevilloise, Le Cabaret Sauvage and at the famous Secret Garden Party Festival (UK) alongside artists like Kormac,  JFTH, Horatio, Algorythmik, Smokey Joe and the Kid, KKC Orchestra, Dirty Honkers, Siwng Zazou, Max Pashm, Caravan Palace, Movits! Dutty Moonshine, Kitten & The Hip, Mr B. The Gentleman Rhymer, Professor Elemental, Sound Assembly, The Sweet Life Society …

Ivor Novello Award-winner and Mercury, Grammy, and BRIT-nominated artist Lianne La Havas unveils her new single ‘Disarray.’ The track showcases a blend of emotional depth and striking vocal delivery, set against sparse, ethereal finger-plucked electric guitar —a signature of La Havas’ style. 

“The song felt very intimate, almost like a secret just for me,” says La Havas. “It’s about vulnerability, honesty, and giving listeners a window into a moment of my life.”

Over the course of her career, La Havas has released three acclaimed albums — Is Your Love Big Enough? , Blood and her self-titled Lianne La Havas  (which won the Ivor Novello Award for Best Album). She has collaborated with leading international artists and captivated audiences worldwide with her spellbinding live performances.

Released via her own Καλό μήνα (Kalo Mina) Records. La Havas embarks on an exciting new chapter, broadening her sonic horizons while remaining rooted in vulnerability and artistry.
