The Beetels - Word (The Captain Remix)

And we close the BigFreeHappy™ with a timeless reminder from 1943, to live each day to the fullest. Featuring the late, great Sister Ernestine Washington. Spread a little happy today :)

(The more observant amongst you will note that this track is a complete and shameless rip off of the final track from our Electro Swing & Gospel Breaks album - Well done for spotting this, but we won't be suing ourselves, so no need to inform the authorities. We really don't mind being ripped off by ourselves... its a  special kind of narcissistic flattery.)

We hope you've enjoyed our BigFreeHappy™ as much as we did making it... and that isn't just some marketing shpeel.. This album really has been one long grin-fest. We hope that comes across, and that a little rubs off on y'all.

So, we would like to leave you with the immortal words of Pharrel Williams: 
"Because I'm..." OW! Batman? WTF? For Christ's sake We were just quoting him.. OW!!!! OK, Ok we'll shut up...

"Skeewiff’s Big Free Happy

Everyone needs this album in their lives. In their cars, on their iPods, in their boudoirs, inside the gym, outside with Jim…anywhere you play this sexy sexy fun times will ensue. Bigger than Hip Hop, freer than Willy. Happier than Bert after Ernie took him into a bear hug and roared a proclamation to the world that he ‘wished he knew how to quit him!’ before getting down to some serious fuzzy-felt back door nuzzling. Skeewiff writes the Soundtrack to 'The Muppets do Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas' before Disney even start thinking about it. Listen to this album with joy in your heart, the sun on your face and a mental image of Kermit in a pith helmet, shooing away mescaline induced imaginary bats whilst keeping his car on the road, balancing his cigarette holder in one corner of his fierce jaw whilst trying to get the end of a straw inside Miss Piggy. Skeewiff are summer luvin’ geniuses and like Kermit, this album blows up!

Big Free Happy is more than an album, it's a promise. Go get some x" - Fat Harry

Skeewiff & Sister Ernestine Washington - Each Day

A minimix sampler for the very LIMITED EDITION 12" vinyl release ahead of ELECTRO BLUES Vol 2 - the critically acclaimed double album series - due out late summer.

The EP features KING CHUBBY & ECLECKTIC MICK, CEE ROO and BOBBY C SOUND TV and is available by mail order from our London distributor Kudos (below) or via good independent vinyl record shops...

_________________________________

DETAILS: It's been just over a year since the launch of Electro-Blues Vol.1. After an incredible 14 months programming stages from Glastonbury to Bestival and monthly residencies in London and Brightons club land, Freshly Squeezed now return with the second instalment of this groundbreaking compilation series and a further 12” vinyl sampler lifted from it.  

Vol.2 whets the appetite for the forthcoming double CD with a second eclectic helping of blues-based dance-floor goodness.

Bobby C Sound TV - "the master of funky breaks" (Krafty Kuts) - and self-appointed president of Ghetto Funk - weights in with a little Rhythm and Blues booty that smashes the door down and totally comes into it's own at club volume. Ecklectic Mick makes an emphatic return, meeting with Brighton's studio dub-maestro King Chubby to present a second exclusive slab of wildly infectious blues. And then, to top it all, we throw in an absolute cracker from Switzerland’s Cee-Roo that heats things up to boiling point. 

This is tried and tested dance-floor dynamite and expected to disappear off the racks to become a collectors item just as quickly as it's predecessor.

It's a second tantalising hint of what to expect on the upcoming Electro-Blues Vol.2 double CD compilation, highlighting the broad appeal (and divergent styles) of this micro vintage remix genre that is quickly finding it’s feet. Do not miss. This will fly.

Lyrics:

"We know nothing / no one knows what to do It’s a pain/ in it's the world upside down
One step forward / two steps backwards Nobody knows anything like King Dagobert!
It makes us crazy / and so we grumble & moan We have all taken / this is the moral of the story Of the world upside down...
￼
1/
24h / connected to the satellite
We punch each other / as we speak on park benches
No more us / no more dosh/ special report in Shanghai --- (in Shanghai) What‘s it says? / That it's not the end for the Youth?
We know nothing / no one knows what to do
It’s a big pain / in this world upside down
We no longer have the time / finished all good manners! Nobody knows anything like King Dagobert!
It drives us crazy / and so we grumble & moan
We break everything / it’s phenomenal / it’s quite normal isn’t it? In the world upside down...

2/
7/11 / it is not very clear / the is romances / accusations at the house of laws No more party anymore in the marital community
Front page news/ with initial A.S - (A.S)
What’s the latest?
Who is rotten?
Oh...Inconclusive...
!We know nothing / no one knows what to do
It’s a big drag / this world upside down
We step up front / and we hand up in the back
Nobody knows anything just like King Dagobert!
It drives us so crazy / and so we grumble & moan Without virtue / all is unpacked with all the latest scandals Of the world upside down...

3 / From 4 am to midday / I like to wake up / is grey outside
Atmosphere not too bright / so I dream
And I tell myself / it’s a perfect day / nothing more to do ... (at least I think so) Because in my bed
It’s the good life!
Life without puzzles!

We know nothing / no one knows what to do It’s a pain / in this world upside down
One step forward / two steps backwards
No one gets it as good as King Dagobert!
It driving us crazy yes/ so we grumble & moan...

All is taken / this is hell
All is hidden / what a farce
Can’t feel up the car / what a cheek!
Soon it’s the deep hole / and the end
Where we’ll 'relax' like King Dagobert ... with no more worlds upside down!"

Vanessa Contenay-Quinones & Skeewiff - Roi Dagobert

"Breakbeat Paradise Recordings is very proud to finally drop a full 4-track EP with one of our favorite producers in the funky breaks scene: Mr. Rory Hoy. Rory has strong roots in the sounds from the bigbeat era, but on the Funktopia EP he is showing a new side to him by dropping some more bass heavy ghetto funk type jams. To embrace this more club oriented sound he’s brought along some fellow ghetto funk producers such as the upcoming ghetto funk wonderboys: Phibes as well as a true legend in the funky breaks scene: Skeewiff. Finally he has teamed up with funk producer PulpFusion on the final cut on this EP.

Rory has been successful in reaching outside the nu funk scene to a wider audience and has even had tunes getting picked up by Disney and has featured on British and American TV several times and his tunes are played on some American TV Shows and in stores like Macy's and on internal Airlines. Rory have had 5 albums released on Freddy Fresh’s Howlin’ Records label and has had support from people like Fatboy Slim and Mr. Scruff. Rory has been bringing his funky sounds all over Europe including doing an opening act at the Official Tour De France Fan Park in Harrogate. Rory approach to music being in a fun and vibrate form seems to have a broad appeal across the board and here at BBP we have been loving what he does from the get-go.

So get ready to get your boogie on, cuz this release is all about having fun and getting down to the funk grooves.

The EP kicks off with the bass heavy Ass Shakers Song, which shows the ghetto funk style that Rory has adapted on this particular release. This jam has everything we love here at BBP: from the oldskool funky breaks to the crisp ghetto funk basslines – all beatifully arranged for dancefloor destruction. 
Phibes follows up with their remix of the Ass Shakers Song by capturing the essense of the samples from the original track and adding some of their signiture ghetto funk beats and wobble basslines. This remix is a sure shot for any funky dj and it will blend in perfectly in any ghetto funk DJ-set. 
On the flip side we see legendary funky breaks producer Skeewiff picking up samples from one of Rory’s album tunes and turning it into a disco inferno. Classic funky breaks at it’s best. 
Finally Rory teams up with PulpFusion to drop a bigbeat inspired jam to set things in perspective as the EP is running out. Look out for PulpFusion’s upcoming Funk Never Sleeps 12” vinyl – which also includes a remix by Rory Hoy – coming soon on BBP."

Sydney, Australia’s Omegaman is back at it again, this time with a bangin’ Remix EP of his recent release on Fort Knox Recordings, the Hot Sauce EP. A longtime producer, collaborator and remixer, Omegaman has already left a mark on the international funk and breaks scene. Building from a very strong original release, Omegaman enlisted the production talents of some of his closest friends around the world, and the result is a funky slice of the tropics dished up for the dance floor massive.

Washington, DC’s kings of Tropicaliente, the Empresarios are featured on Oye Como Suena and the Skeewiff Remix ignites the vibe into an irresistible salsa breaks banger.
The funk hits the fan with the Fort Knox Five Remix of Lovers Skank featuring Patou, pure electro-ska with some groovy bass lines. The hi-hats and percussion are crisp on Qdup’s Remix of A Bailar featuring Vincent Sebastian, another slice of electro Latin funk for the dance floor. Rounding out the EP are the big beats and reggae skanks of DJ Maars’ Remix of Follow Me, and Mustafa Akbar’s vocals fit perfectly with the funky dancehall soul sound.

Blending together various rhythms from Latin, reggae, ska and funk has become Omegaman’s calling card, and he has pulled it off once again. Building on the strength of the original release, the Hot Sauce EP takes it to the next level with hard hitting bass, electro, breaks and big beat designed to make people dance.

Fort Knox Recordings is the renegade funk ‘n soul label from Washington, DC. Established in 2003, our mission is to explore the funkier side of global music. Fort Knox is set to ‘Tell it like it is’ by smashing the artificial barriers established by the 'System' that keeps all good music down. Forget about tempos and genres - we want to take you back to the roots and unite all music from our funk, dub, & soul; brothas & sistas - you dig? So stop being so serious, this is music, it's supposed to be fun.

Planet Ragtime - Let Me Tell About

Ah well this track.. not to be taken too seriously.. but It should make you feel happy! (unless you are Eminem or Dre)..They probably don't appreciate me turning their Gangster Rap into a Swingin' Jive number!) As for 50cent, I think he's got a career in Swing-hop waiting for him!

Thanks for all the support yo!
