it's so fucking bad, honestly

the beat is so ugly and goes against their whole aesthetic

Now this is complete bollocks. The song may not be as good as people had hoped for, but it is definitely a >3.00 song. RYM are so shit for over-reacting.
>>
>>65363930
Honestly I don't care that much for Frankie Sinatra on its own. Thing is, I think if Wildflower is anything like Since I Left You in that it plays like one continuous DJ set, then the song will probably fit perfectly into the album itself, if that makes any sense

What's wrong with electro swing other than "reddit fedora boogeyman likes it"?
>>
the idea of rapping over a Avalanches song is fucking bullshit.

This was instrumental hip hop that mixed an argosy of past sounds to create a blissful, nostalgic, Dionysian experience.

Now it's just basic hip hop.

What the fuck happened...

It has already been confirmed to be a continuous mix, and I agree. It will probably fit much better within the context of the album.

I really really disagree.

The first thing I thought of was Gramatik. Instrumentation reminded me of Caravan Palace. It's just not electroswing. Give it twice the tempo, add a way more straight forward beat, add some way more aggressive instrumentation and MAYBE I'd agree with you.

In my opinion, the link you provided already sounds less "electroswingy" than Frankie Sinatra, despite the similar sounding sample.

This is what I think of when I think trip hop.

I just can't hear the swing. That's all. Really, if people think there's any kind of acceptable level of swing to classify it as such, I'd be REALLY interested in hearing what downtempo music is to them.

Frankie Sinatra is just as close to Electro Swing as this:
