I work as a florist.
Sometimes, during the preparation of big floral events ( Valentine's day, Mother's day, Christmas etc ) I put this music alongside other Caravan Palace titles for my (numerous ) co-workers and I.
Damn, the general happy mess, all those people, all those flowers, with that music. It's quite something.

i just found out today that this style of music is actually a genre. "Electroswing". The more you know... I'll surely listen to more

[tehdmanvids]

This is the Gateway drug into the world of electroswing.

3:09 Only Caravan Palace could make _drunken slurred chanting_ sound good

Biggest reason this song is so kickass: It's a huge nod to the musical style of one of the biggest original cool cats in the French jazz scene: Django Reinhardt. It's called Gypsy Jazz, and it's so cool to see a French electroswing band pulling so directly from their local roots :D

For some reason, I'm imagining a bar fight to this that gets progressively more ridiculous until, at the end, the galaxy blows up.

im imagining a baby dragon sits in a cage, being sold in a marketplace, when the cage falls and it's set free, and it proceeds to fly around, unintentionally causing chaos escaping and maybe breathing fireballs occasionally

Each time I listen to this song, I notice more and more little details. Like the people cheering near the end of the song. This song is truly a masterpiece!

[dltlbp]

And at around 1:45 you can hear what appears to be a slide whistle and kazoo having sex with a harmonics silently watching. And it is glorious

[csrph]

No, this isn't a new album. this is their very first album, they are just uploading it to their official channel.

[PupDeLaTart]

This was the first song I ever heard from this godly band. Thank you Pandora for introducing me to this musician back in 2009.

How did I JUST NOW hear of electro swing?? This is fooking fun music!

[HLBUNS]

I'm getting vibes of a steam punk bar fight.

[markhong]

It’s been 6 years and this song is still a bop.

[notaninterestingusernameat]

While everyone is imagining bar fights, I can only imagine a scientist making a mechanical dragon and sending it to live with real dragons, and it slowly comes to love the dragons more than it's creator, and in the few calm scenes, it's the scientist talking to a buddy in a bar about how the project is going.

[gabbisis]

im screaming omg i'm so glad they're uploading this it's my favorite

[kasperkyd]

Damn awesome music Caravan Palace does

[CC_-pnog]

I love gypsy jazz. I love electro swing. I love this song

[sleepyrays]

this song just makes me imagine a group of young delinquent dragons ravaging towns and committing crimes constantly. like causing dumpster fires and stealing shit from stores

[brunobucciaratiswife]

This gives me vibes of an old fashioned dragon wedding party from the perspective of a baby dragon. At the end of the song he’s so tuckered out dancing his grandfather whistles him a tune to put him to sleep. XD
