TAPE FIVE – The pioneer of Electroswing
Yes! When in 2008 most people were sleeping we invented swing on a steady 4 beat with composed swinging and live played horn sections in it. My working title of that style was “Charleston House”. In 2010 the tracks, for example “Bad Boy Goodman”, “Dixie Biscuit” or “Madame Coquette” were released on our album “Tonight Josephine”. Those were the days. Later thousands of “sample DJs” discovered this genre and called it “Electroswing”…

*** Epilogue to the album Circus Maximus ***
“Of course the title had nothing to do with a “circus” itself as you will have imagined.
It´s about the world, the big circus – the crazy things that happen…
Of course we know “bread and games” since the days of the Romans.
But when I selected the title in late 2014 – I could not even guess what a real circus it soon would become, also here in Germany.
Hoping history is NOT repeating and there will be a way out…”
