Hey there, Beatery faithful! It’s sure been awhile, hasn’t it? You’re looking good; glad to see you’ve been taking care of yourselves. Well, enough chit-chat, I know why you’re here. We’re long overdue for a new podcast.
It’s taken me eight damn months from the time I promised I’d have a podcast of electro swing “soon” to finally deliver this one. No excuses for the delay, I’ll just say that since the genre is still relatively young, and the pool of tracks relatively small, it was pretty hard to for me find a nice eclectic mix of tracks that work together. But lo and behold, I have finally prevailed.*
*And somehow I managed to do so with nary a track from electro swing’s #1 man, Parov Stelar.
Anyhow, consider this an electro swing introduction course. A sample platter. We’ve got some trip-hop, some breaks, a few wobbly baselines for the kids, and of course, good ol’ house… all of it swing-style. Dig in! I hope you enjoy yourselves, and I’ll try not to let as much time pass before the next one. No promises though.

Can’t wait to run to this! Yay, my Sunday is now planned.
The tempo in the first half might be a little inconsistant for running (Cara likes to remind me to keep it steady) but once you hit Minnie the Moocher, you’re golden.
Yesssssss… ever since you guys introduced me to Caravan Palace, I’ve been digging electro swing.
Nice mix! I love this genre of music :). I remember first hearing swing house back in like 2001 at a party in college, and was like “this is a style of techno?? Awesome!!”
