    Artist History
    I startedSwing Youth as a hobby in the summer 1998, which quickly progressed to an obsession of great proportions. The name Swing Youth comes from a youth resistance group in Germany during World War Two, which fought against the ideals of the Hitler Youth. My style has developed as the result of my passion for electronic music and any sort of inventive musical style.
