Anyway, Wo Fat released an album this year, too: The Conjuring.
It's similar to Psychedelonaut, but heavier and darker, that in this case means better. 😄
the swing jazz or manouche jazz is pretty interesting, it's often said that it came from Paris in the form of a string band founded by guitarist Django Reinhardt and violinist Stéphane Grappelli in the 1930.
it's a fusion between popular dance "Musette" (or valse musette) and American jazz;
the "musette" is a kind of "french bagpipe" but it's also a style of music (and life!), the result of the influence of different cultures: Auvergnats (people from the Auvergne region of France), Italians, Manouches (gypsies), Americans, Spanish...in a way also the "tango" was part of the musette repertoire!
anyway if u like it u could find plenty of information on the web, this is just a short intro!
^ I should have a lot of time, when I will, I' will inform myself better, thanks.
Anyway, I've found Django Reinhardt on some charts here.. Now I know the kind of music he plays!
Interesting timing. A friend of mine was just telling me how gypsy music is all the rage right now in the hipster kingdom that is Williamsbug, NYC. Anyone know which band or album is the best of this lot?
