The Hebbe Sisters & Wolfgang Lohr – Rug Cutter

“I’ve Got to Be a Rug Cutter”… Just as Duke Ellington’s version of this tune made you want to jitterbug, this remix will have you tapping your feet all night long. Wolfgang Lohr and The Hebbe Sisters have rediscovered a true vintage treasure and flipped it into an early summer banger full of bass, groove, surprises and tempo changes.

Keeping the essential elements untouched, the Berlin-based producer has infused the original big band sound with a generous helping of house, neo swing, future bass, halftime drum & bass and dubstep styles to create a future swing track that completely stands on its own.

On top of that, Wolfgang is joined by the sensational Swedish vocal trio “The Hebbe Sisters” and their skilled jazz musicians who harmonise the unforgettable melody and turn “Rug Cutter” into an exciting electro swing bop that you don’t want to miss. Prepare to find yourself dancing! #FutureSwing #RugCutter #HalftimeSwing
