Although the idea of Swift Technique has been in motion for over 10 years, it has just reached its breaking point in the summer of '07. While Swift Technique draws from all world influences, their genre is uniquely Philadelphian. The idea of combining traditional jazz and funk with hip-hop seems almost too obvious, but artists are not pushing the boundaries. The music scene needs sincere, soulful performers that audiences of all age, race and background can enjoy collectively. By combining old influences with young, raw energy, Swift Technique is the collaboration of seven souls on a mission to flip the music scene upside down.

Black Landlord is a project started by Maxx (formerly of the Goats and Incognegro). The idea began 4 years ago with friends and super-electro producers Leonard de Leonard and Olaf Hund. They worked together in Paris and Berlin, writing songs and daydreaming about how to bring talented people together. So, after learning German, some ghetto French and drinking great beer, he returned home to Philly and put a live band together and the end result was a diverse mix of PHILLY ALL-STARS.
