Award-winning British #electroswing singer and songwriter LITTLE VIOLET collaborates here with the ever-reliable and instantly recognisable French Touch producer THE SWING BOT for a super catchy summer single. Out now here: https://idol-io.ffm.to/tournedisc

With chilled, almost TROPICAL HOUSE influences meeting vintage vocal vibes and HOLIDAY themed lyrics about letting all your troubles go, 'BUSY DOING NOTHING' references the sounds of Steel Pans and lazy beach bars... If this was a cocktail, it'd come with an umbrella and be coconut or pineapple based. Probably both.

Busy Doing Nothing

Out now

The Swing Bot, Little Violet - Busy Doing Nothing

After the huge success of his summer collaboration with vocalist & label-mate LITTLE VIOLET, our favourite French Touch robot returns to his roots. An instrumental #electroswing banger, that is typically hard edged and #swinghouse dance-floor focussed. Retronik is out now on all platforms: https://idol-io.ffm.to/tournedisc

Featuring a trumpet lick that nods to the vintage swing of Louis Armstrong, a heavy beat, artwork by the bot himself and accompanied by another of his leading edge AI videos, this is guaranteed to please fans both new and old. Clubs residencies at the likes of Party Like Gatsby & Festival bookings 2023 add further support. 

This official video for The Swing Bot's latest single RETRONIK was created by the Bot himself (with a little help from his robot pals). Watch it here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TRTKO8BsPyY

The Swing Bot - Retronik

Continuing his unique journey since last years debut album, THE SWING BOT is dropping this BILLIE HOLIDAY cover that is less a remix than a complete re-contextualisation. You can stream As Time Goes By here: https://idol-io.ffm.to/tournedisc. 

Chilled autumnal piano and a mellow looping single note hook compliment a vintage jazz vocal sample that ends up conjuring a tune both familiar yet entirely new and unexpected.  

To accompany this dark #electroswing and vintage classic remix, The Swing Bot has created another cutting edge animated video with a little help from his AI friends! Watch here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GHMR4vGIFFY

As Time Goes By

The Swing Bot - As Time Goes By

French DJ and minimal swing house producer THE SWING BOT has not been resting on his laurels since the release of his debut album last year. Creating a series of cutting edge AI videos and a string of new releases, ST. JAMES INFIRMARY is a perfectly timed slower tempo offering just in time for HALLOWEEN. Out now on the 'Unlucky for Some' Freshly Squeezed Halloween compilation: https://idol-io.link/unluckyforsome

Combining a vintage swing sample, deep Sub Bass and a Swing Hop loop with the classic song about finding your baby laid up in the morgue (!), the video features an AI enhanced reworking of an original BETTY BOOP cartoon from 1933. Watch it here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bipeiFXvOgw

St. James Infirmary

The Swing Bot - St. James Infirmary

The 6th single to drop since THE SWING BOT's debut album earlier in 2023 and The Bot is on a roll! Switching it up from his trademark minimal Swing House style, a newer sound is evolving that is more Swing Hop. Out now here: https://idol-io.ffm.to/tournedisc

Downtempo LoFi beats meet vintage samples; Here Count Basie's piano and Jimmy Rushing's vocal from 1936 get a refresh as a follow-up to The Bots brilliant Cab Calloway and Billie Holiday regrooves!

Evenin'

The Swing Bot - Evenin'

Less than a year after his debut #electroswing LP on Freshly Squeezed and THE SWING BOT has not been resting. Despite notching up over 6 million streams on Spotify alone with this, already we're here with the 7th and 8th songs since. Out now here: https://idol-io.ffm.to/tournedisc

Now combining predominantly very early vocal jazz and swing, cut up and recontextualised with hip hop and minimal house beats, the likes of Count Basie and (here) Billie Holiday are sampled. Combined with his leading edge AI video work and trademark moustache-headed resident DJ spot on tour with the Party Like Gatsby crew across Europe, you just can't stop the bot!

You Let Me Down

Be the Change

The Swing Bot - Be the Change

We’re really hyped about this one. The Swing Bot finally made the tune that will define and justify his name. Unashamedly mashing together full Daft Punk electro, with a robot voiced cover of one of the all time most iconic vintage swing songs Doin’ The Jive (made famous by Glenn Miller band in the 1930’s) - this seems so obvious it’s only a surprise it hasn’t been done before. That’s the mark of genius. OUT NOW: https://idol-io.ffm.to/tournedisc

This will be given full support by Freshly Squeezed and is a priority song for 2024 as we  rapidly move towards a second Swing Bot album in as many years.

The Swing Bot - Doin' the Jive (Electro Swing Bot Mix)

Introducing "Nightly Blues" by The Swing Bot, his final #electroswing banger before his second album release! Out now here: https://idol-io.ffm.to/tournedisc

Dive into a mesmerising fusion of vintage swing melodies and let the rhythm carry you as you dance under the neon lights. With its infectious groove and melody, driven by its sample from The Missourians' tune 'Prohibition Blues', this track creates the perfect blend of vintage samples and modern electronic soundscapes.
