ELECTRO BLUES VOLUME ONE (VARIOUS ARTISTS)

Freshly Squeezed, the UKs leading electro-swing label and debonairs of all things vintage, proudly present the hotly anticipated release of Electro Blues.

Freshly Squeezed Music is the birthplace of the Electro Swing phenomenon that took the world by the hand and lead it wholeheartedly into the world of vintage and vintage revival.

This two-disc Electro Blues album is pioneering the most vibrant, captivating and down-right electrical musical genre that Freshly Squeezed label boss and DJ Nick Hollywood states "will become a massive global sound within a few years".

It has a sweaty, earthy, rugged, but hard-hitting and totally contemporary sound. Set for a phenomenal reception in 2013 it will soon be the hottest new genre around and its home is with Freshly Squeezed Music. Mixing the styles of the 1930s Mississippi delta, 1940s Jump Blues and 21st century earth-rattling synth bass lines, Electro Blues is a musical gem that has lay all-but undiscovered... until now.

ELECTRO BLUES CD1 comprises an array of some of the finest vintage blues remixes around. It can't get better than this! The passion and grit of the blues not only lives, breathes and thrives within this astounding compilation but it also embodies something bigger and more prominant than ever before. Featured on this album is the genre defining Moby, France's illustrious Lazlo, and the suave sounds of Cabbie Hat Recordings' 4Peace.

ELECTRO BLUES CD2 can be considered the quintessential guide to 'jump & jive blues' featuring artists such as Big Mama Thornton, Amos Milburn and the ever elusive B.K. Anderson. Fear not, this is not another slap-dash assorment of dreary blues songs that leave you crying into your beer. These tracks are BIG, bold and unashamably in your face with the gusto that many artists still strive for today!
