Inspired by a fifty-year-old romantic meeting between two students from Switzerland and France respectively, Je Ne Peux Pas T’oublier relays a story of long-distance love, from a time when the internet and video calls were unheard of.
Swing
Joyful nostalgia in live instruments, catchy grooves, and uplifting optimism from the golden age – light baritone crooner Robert Marleigh captures the essence of a simpler time, with the jazz-kissed covers and original songs of his 6-track EP Needle On The Rim.
This latest take on swingin’ vintage pop is a sensational and colourful new song, with lush acoustic riffs, characterful vocals, and snappy, fun lyrics, of brief lines building towards a satisfying crescendo.
Having carved out a unique lane in music with his band JNBW, lead singer and front-man Jesse Posis now sets out on the solo road for an entirely new project.
Perfectly encapsulating the isolation and turmoil of 2020, alongside a brilliantly juxtaposed groove of infectious electro-swing.
Outstanding good vibes pour through amidst a fine fusion of soulful, stylish vocal sampling and faultless production detail – EGO takes things to the next level with the Swing-kissed, addictive dance classic Knock This Feeling.
Quickly igniting nostalgia for the nights of electro-swing and ambient after-parties, lost in the music and the moment – producer Misso keeps things eclectic yet comforting with this short collection of original grooves.
While the title is a nod to modern life, the phrasing, the tech, the search for understanding, what you’ll ultimately find within is a country-rock, jazz-piano-soaked classic – an explosion of organic instrumentation, high energy and nostalgia; enough so to take you way back to bar fights and big bands.
A short collection of covers such as this really reinforces the fact that Andrew Farstar is easily the right choice for anyone looking for a singer with a genuine and deep-running passion for performance and music; regardless of genre or era or style.
The whole thing begins to feel like a circus or carnival-style song – immense energy and multiple layers of colour, but an underlying concept that leans a little more towards depth of thought and even darkness.
Doug Ferony and his big-band sound are one of a kind at present, and this single is the perfect starting point for those who are new to his music or who are seeking out that authentic, historically rooted yet fresh and colourful jazz and swing aura.
KC Sisters harmonize beautifully on this refreshing take on The Marvelettes 1960’s classic Please Mr. Postman. It’s a pleasure to hear this song again after so long, especially when it’s been given such a light and lovely makeover.
