Of course, making significant changes to one’s sound carries risks with it, and whether this has paid off or not for Caravan Palace is a different matter. It’s understandable that, having been in the game for such a time now, they would want to expand their sound, and actually something that I’d argue most acts should attempt more. The album is certainly something of a departure from what many of us were expecting from the band. Quite a feat for an Electro Swing act, and one which may take us some time to see repeated. In fact, as the band announced on their Twitter last Saturday, the album was amongst the top ten bestselling albums worldwide. Chronologic represents their fourth album now, and it’s one which has been both highly-anticipated, and greatly-received. These guys have been making music for over a decade now, and have consistently set the bar for others to try and reach.

You’d be hard-pressed to find any other artist in the genre who doesn’t cite them as an influence of some kind.

Quite possibly the most respected act in electro swing – in fact quite likely. Review: Caravan Palace – Chronologic (New Album)Ĭaravan Palace.
