BoomSwing is a style of music that combines the timeless sound of Big Band Swing with the fresh, electrifying sound of booming club music.

BoomSwing is closely related to Electro-Swing. It could be said that BoomSwing comes from replacing a swing band's rhythm section with a DJ, whereas, Electro-Swing comes from removing some of the electronic elements from club music and replacing them with swing elements.

There are currently two sub-genres of BoomSwing:

Original BoomSwing

Music recorded by a full band. It could be a remake of an older song or a new composition.

Remix BoomSwing

A classic swing tune given a new life by re-mixing some "boom" into it.

If you've never heard BoomSwing before, you should start with this video of Caravan Palace. Their fun, energetic and seamless blend of jazz and electronica is the defining sound of this genre.
