https://soundcloud.com/thisisswoon/heatwave-single-edit "[SWOON] can be heard getting down to new wave and flaunting disco flair, all the while going a little wild (clink! clank! clang!) with their percussion. ... The most magical aspect of the whole thing? That it all somehow totally works."  -- Consequence of Sound
 SWOON is a new project by Simon Balthazar (Fanfarlo) and King Knut, two Scandinavian musicians based in London and Mexico City. It was conceived as an anything-goes studio project gleefully borrowing from art rock, disco and post punk – as happy in the company of Arthur Russell or Brian Eno as that of Scott Walker, Laurie Anderson or late Talk Talk. The forthcoming SWOON album is a colourful onslaught of tracks that keep you wondering what will happen next with ever-surprising landscapes of wide open spaces, seasick grooves and cut up vocal hooks. As if several stations had drifted into synch on a detuned radio, this is music that brings about its own universe by straddling several others. SWOON's first single “Heatwave” hits you like a DIY disco juggernaut, resplendent with analogue synth arpeggios and with nods to '80s New York City and European kosmische music.
