I've been slacking a bit on the electroswing posts lately, but don't worry, my love for this unique genre is as strong as it's ever been. Jamie Berry is definitely on my "top favorites" list when it comes to electroswing and always reminds me of why I love this genre so much. I hadn't heard much from him lately, so his appearance on my SoundCloud feed was a welcome surprise. Hopefully this is a foreshadowing of a new set of releases on the horizon. I guess I'll just have to put this little diddy on repeat for the [...]

1940s WARTIME DITTY - From the dusty parts of my fetid record collection come the tunes of yore. Today it's the Andrews Sisters: your grandads polyester-clad wank fantasy. The Andrew Sister were raunchy,wartime sluts that coaxed the flaccid undercarriages of the worlds most battle scarred soldiers. Sordid mirages of fisting Maxene and Patty while Laverne choked on their cocks were punctated with flashbacks of dismemberment, scorched limbs and the final blood gurgling howls of their fallen comrades. Go gramps! Download audio file (Rum-and-Coca-Cola.mp3) The Andrews Sisters - [...]

Je m'étais bien gouré, la compilation mixée d'Hot Chip est en fait fantastique. Le premier CD est consacré avant tout à l'éléctro avec les classiques du groupe (Dominik Eulberg etc ...) et un titre inédit du groupe (écoutable ici). Mais c'est pour le deuxième que je me suis pris d'affection, d'un mauvais goût absolument passionnant. Il enchaine tous les genres les moins populaires et pourtant me ferait presque aimer John Oates, c'est dire ! La chanson d'intro qui n'en est pas une est bien partie pour faire durer un sacré paquet d'apéro cet été, comme le [...]

Bringing a fresh mix to Rum And Coca-Cola recorded by The Andrew Sisters in 1945, JoJo Effect did a remarkable job on this track!

If the preferred drink of Mad Men 's pilot was a straight up martini, last night it was the vodka gimlet , as the ladies get (wolf-)whistled up to center stage. Since Betty Draper (January Jones) was left out of the pilot until the (not so) surprising twist at the end, last night we got to play catch up with Don's lovely lesser half. She seems the idyllic housewife of the time - two kids, a successful husband - but like many women, it all feels like a trap. Triggering these feelings she can't [...]
