DanyloM & Betty Booom – The Barber
Electro Swing Thing #159
Rossini’s famous „Barber“ – but make it Swing!
Once upon a time an outstanding Ukrainian Jazz pianist and a multifaceted South African Electro Swing producer stumbled across one of music history’s greatest masterpieces of comedy: Rossini’s Barber.
Naturally, they put their heads together and joined forces to catapult it into our today’s musical landscape and create a track that goes straight to our legs.
DanyloM’s swinging Ragtime piano combined with Betty Booom’s incomparable club sound make for a worthy homage to the original piece while allowing party animals of our time to get down to it.
You better get ready! 🔥 🎹 🎷 🎵 🎺
