Review:
Austrian electro-swing label Billybong have roped in a host of artists to re-work a pair of tunes by sax-brandishing Viennese swing DJ Cab Canavaral. First Up, “I Dance Charleston”, is given a tough, peak time makeover by Vassili Gemini, a more fizzy minimal going over by Sound Nomaden and a live-sounding rework by Discotizer. “Why Don’t You Do Right” is restyled as a sultry, low slung bass groove, and turned into a 40′s stripper’s racy backing track by Skeewiff, dubstep sternly takes hold in the Il Leprotto mix, while it becomes slick 2step in the hands of F3edo.
