ANKNOWN aka BSSLN - Swing House, electro swing, Nu Swing - Studio Mix

The inspiring sources for this excursus into a whole territory of the desert - at least for me - have been a cologne based DJ, Discotizer and a monthly event, held in Cologne, the Dancemob where the residents Marvis, Madame Summit & Mike S.Kreama deal with this genre from time to time, next time - taking place on wednesday, 04-20-2011 at the lovely, tiny location Lichtung Kulturcafe, Cologne - yet with support by a live saxophonist, Lars D.

A few words on the sound, on Electro Swing.

For me this sound has a certain energy which summons you insistently to dance. In my opinion, the original Swing owns this energy as well. Doing a dj set using those tunes is really fun. It´s not very complex. But exactly this gives you as the DJ behind the decks the fair space and time to give the set your personal touch ; cutting, fading, scratching, using fx, everything works very easily. I really enjoyed doing this nearly 2 hours-set of some older & new Electro-Swing. Maybe it´s my last excursus into this direction, maybe not, who knows!? Doubtless it´s been important to me to explore this sound! Hopefully you´ll like what is now prepared for your ears!
