It was difficult to decide should I go to more classic or modern version with this. But when I heard Paul Anka's hilarious swing version of Nirvana's "Smells Like Teen Spirit" (2005), it was easy decision: modern. So with this mix I wanted to try how big stereo space I can make without ruining the sound of the band.
Well, as you can hear, I couldn't make THAT big space, but still, it was fun to try. Actually the end result is quite small. I kept narrowing the space as it kept sounding weird to me. But nevertheless, with that Paul Anka's record I tried to study how this kind of music should sound like. As this was totally new area for me, I probably missed quite many details and points of what swing audience wants to hear.
Telefunken has shared also another song with this band: Song of India. Maybe I'll try total mono version with it, someday.
