The Correspondents are a British electro swing duo based in London, formed by frontman Mr. Bruce and DJ Chucks in 2007. They have gained a reputation in the growing electro swing scene for both their energetic musical style—a mixture of early 20th century jazz and swing, with modern electro and drum'n'bass—and for Mr. Bruce’s flamboyant stage presence.〔 They have been described as "the kings of hip hop swing",〔 "brilliant and ridiculous in gloriously equal measures."〔 The band have supported artists such as Lily Allen and Basement Jaxx and have played at major festivals such as WOMAD,〔 Glastonbury,〔 Bestival,〔 and Secret Garden Party.〔 Their song "Fear and Delight" is used as the theme tune to BBC Three comedy ''Crims''. ==Awards & recognition== The band was included in The Telegraph's top 10 Glastonbury highlights two years in a row〔〔 and has also been featured in Rob da Bank's 2-hour ''Electro Swing Special'' on BBC Radio 1.〔 The music video to their single ''Fear & Delight'' won the "Best VFX" award at the Berlin Music Video Awards 2014, while its director, Naren Wilks, was named overall winner for "Best Production".〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「The Correspondents (band)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
