What I Love About Rob Swift....
On his latest album, 2010's The Architect , heralded DJ Rob Swift looked to continue pushing himself to explore new ways to wow audiences with his deftness on the ones and twos. And he did so by incorporating classical music into his turntable routine, which might appear easy considering all of the huge orchestral beats churned out by producers these days. But Swift's approach is, to be blunt, different and you can get a grasp of just what he is doing in a live setting with the above footage from a performance last weekend in [...]

End of Week Recap: January 10-16

Jan 16, 2011, 12:01am Consequence Of Sound
I never know what to make of weeks like this. And when I say "weeks like this" I actually mean every week I write one of these recap posts. You never know what to expect in the music world or in life in general. I've said this many times before, but it bears repeating. Think about it. In a single week a hotly anticipated album can drop, festival rumors, no matter how legit or just plain entertaining, can begin to circulate, and a larger-than-life band can announce a string of tour dates. Then there the more unfortunate events. It seems [...]

Interview: DJ Rob Swift

Jan 13, 2011, 11:00am Consequence Of Sound
Interview: DJ Rob Swift 2010 was a hell of a year for the New York-based DJ Rob Swift . He released an album, The Architect , in February, spent most of the year touring for it in far-flung places such as Moscow and Beirut, filmed an upcoming DVD, released an EP called Sketches of the Architect in September, and contributed music to the Find Your Tribe campaign which was featured before movie trailers in theatres this December. Swift has always been a go-getter though, from his early beginnings as a turntablist with the innovative crew the [...]

Another Rhymesayers SoundSet – Memorial Day Weekend

Apr 7, 2010, 9:00am JumpTheTurnstyle
Another Rhymesayers SoundSet – Memorial Day Weekend I suppose that anyone who lives in that icy tundra known as Rhymesayers-land deserves a party this dope at least once a year. This line-up is amazing - possibly even worth a road trip for anyone who wants to re-live some old memories and declare it to be the new Scribble Jam sans the battles (though I'm sure there will be more than a few cats doing their best Slug impersonations in the parking lot). Unfortunately - I'm grounded here in Boston for a few months, but if you're going let us know. We'd love some decent video.

You may know Rob Swift better as DJ Swift, one of the DJs that compose the turntable group, The X-Ecutioners. The Architect is his latest offering. It's a pretty interesting DJ album. It mixes classical music with Hip Hop and scratching. There are a couple of vocal tracks, but it's mostly instrumental. It's runtime is a quick [...]

Rob Swift Builds A Stunning Creation On The Architect

Feb 24, 2010, 3:18pm Viva La Mainstream!
Rob Swift Builds A Stunning Creation On The Architect All hyperbole aside, you've never heard something quite like The Architect , the twelfth album from turntablist and former X-ecutioner Rob Swift. Sure you've seen the components that comprise The Architect before; turntablism, hip-hop and classical music have all been around in some form or other for awhile now. But all three put together? Not so much. Indeed, Rob Swift is to The Architect what a six year old is to an endless supply of Legos. At the end of it all, the colors, shapes and sizes may not match, but damn if that isn't [...]

MP3 At 3PM: Rob Swift

Feb 11, 2010, 3:00pm MAGNET

Master turntablist Rob Swift does the unthinkable on his new album, The Architect (out February 23 on Ipecac Recordings), by taking lush orchestral sounds and giving them a danceable makeover with backbeats and scratching.

Fresh Squeezed: Rob Swift

Jan 19, 2010, 10:12am What to Wear During an Orange Alert?
Fresh Squeezed: Rob Swift Long before DJ Hero, I was deep into the world of turntablism. From Qbert to Z-trip, I found myself only listening to this unique brand of hip hop. A DJ that always stood out among the others was Rob Swift . He was a member of turntablist collective the X-Ecutioners, but he was always more on the experimental side of things. On his solo debut, Soulful Fruit (1997), he mixed jazz and scratch to create a classic in the genre. Next month he is returning to prove he can through another genre into the mix. Using his newfound love [...]
