[Machine Translation] Swinging jazz meets hip-hop! In addition to the 1st album, which was hard to find outside of EU, the latest 2nd album is now officially distributed at the same time! Appelknyckarjazz ( included in V.A "Electro Swing 2" ) A hip-hop & swing band from Lule , Sweden. The band was originally formed as a unit of brothers, Joanne as lead singer and lyricist, and Anders as DJ, composer, and producer. Later, Joaquin, a saxophone player, joined the band to form the current trio. In 2005, they started playing live mainly in Europe. In 2005, they began playing live shows around Europe, and their sound gradually changed as they became fascinated by the Jazz elements of drums and horns. The band's sound is truly one-of-a-kind, and was strongly influenced by Benny Goodman, the king of swing jazz, as well as the style of Andre 3000, a member of the hip-hop group Outkast. The band identifies itself by rapping in its native language, Swedish, and its lyrics are often about social issues. In April 2011, the band released their second album "Out Of My Head" worldwide. This year, the band toured the U.S. and Canada for more than two months. Don't miss out on the coolest swingers around!

Appelknyckarjazz / MOVITS!

スウィングジャズ・ミーツ・ヒップホップ!スウェーデン出身のイカしたスウィンギン・ヒップホップバンド、Movits!EU以外では入手困難だった幻の1stに加え、最新作の2ndアルバムも同時に正式流通開始!M-6 Fel Del Av Garden (V.A『Electro Swing 3』収録)/ M-9 Appelknyckarjazz (V.A『Electro Swing 2』収録)スウェーデンはルレア出身のヒップホップ&スウィング・バンド。もともとはリード・シンガー&作詞を務めるジョアンと、DJ&作曲、プロデューサー役をこなすアンダースによる、兄弟ユニットとして結成された。その後、サックス・プレイヤーのホアキンが加入し、現在のトリオ編成となる。やがて3人はバンド名をスウェーデンの伝説的ミュージシャンの名にちなみ、「Movits!」に変更。2005年にはヨーロッパを中心にライヴ活動を開始。その後、JAZZ的な要素を含むドラムやホーンに魅せられ、彼らのサウンドが徐々に変化していく。スウィング・ジャズの帝王、ベニー・グッドマンの影響を色濃く受け、同時にヒップホップ・グループ、アウトキャストのメンバー、アンドレ3000のスタイルにも大きな影響を受けたというサウンドはまさに唯一無二。また、母国語であるスウェーデン語でラップすることをバンドのアイデンティティとしており、歌詞のトピックは社会問題を題材にしていることが多い。彼らのヒット・シングル Fel Del Av Gardenは、軽快なリズムと洒落っ気たっぷりのPVとは裏腹に、巨大な資本社会の構造に疑問を呈しているという内容だ。2011年4月には2ndアルバム『Out Of My Head』をワールドワイド・リリース。今年に入ってからは2ヶ月以上にも及ぶアメリカ&カナダツアーも慣行している。今、もっともイカしたスウィング野郎たちに乗り遅れるな!
