Boing Boing co-founder Cory Doctorow is sharing his discovery of the musical genre called Electro-Swing with a catchy introduction by the band Caravan Palace. It seems that similar strains were incident to some of the party scenes of the recent adaptation of The Great Gatsby and one can really picture flappers hustling to these re-imagined jazzy, Big Band sounds, nicely constructed from the classics of that era, but this style has roots that go back for quite a few years.
