The song "The Phantom (1930 Version)" by Parov Stelar :D

Caravan Palace, Dragons pretty much always gets me.  But I would guess you want more than the obvious answer.

 

Pretty much any good mix of ol' Django Rineheardt's "Minor Swing" works.  John Beltran's mix from a few years back was pretty good, but there are numerous out there.

 

Kormac's "Scratch Marchin'" is always a favorite.  Something about Kermit in the intro makes me dance.

 

Hope it helps!  I have a bit more, but I had until very recently thought electro-swing was a random occasional derivation, I had no idea until just a few months ago how big it is on the other side of the pond!

Great suggestions so far.

If you have more, I'm all ears.

Right now a few of my hotwax favorites are Shake Ya Boogie by Mocean Worker, Soulsalicious by Tape Five and Touch my Horn by Jesse Rose...yass yass siree!

I agree with Jeremiah on Caravan Palace. "Dragons" is really good. I would add "Suzy." I'm a big fan on Tape Five "Pantaloons."

Caravan Palace of course, many songs from White Mink: Black Cotton 2, Lyre le Temps or Parov Stelar

@ Hayen Mill: I was thinking the exact same thing!

 

But anything upbeat by Wolfgang Parker would do as well..

Absolutely Wolfgang Parker. I agree completely Wels.

I actually feel a bit silly for not mentioning Wolfgang, being native to his home town..

Parov Stelar's  "Chambermaid Swing" is some pretty good stuff
