Very nice! Although the "Rec 4 Apocalypse" version without the drums is way better as the drums kill the "swing" quite a bit. >>> https://youtu.be/vSBwW9MUZNo?t=1568

Absolutely the original and you just made my day with this. Have to say this is one of my Desert Island Discs

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

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.

_________________________________

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.

Electro Blues 2 12" vinyl Mini-Mix Sampler

*Released on Monday 15th September*

Back with a bang after the release of their debut album, Hello Kitten on Pedigree Cuts earlier this year. The electro swing, kick-ass Kitten and The Hip are bringing you more head banging pop!

The delectable duo have teamed up with the likes of Skeewiff, Rory Hoy, Vassili Gemini, UnBalanced and Another Fine Day for 5 fabulously ferocious remixes of their lead single ‘Don’t Touch The Kitten’ ....Meow.

With their recent appearances on The X Factor, it’s clear the British public and press can’t get enough of these two. No doubt 2014 and 2015 have big things in store for Miss Kitten and Mr Hip.

This track was originally recorded by PAOLO CONTE and has become something of a cult anthem. The lyrics roughly translated to English mean "Come away with me...".

The band first performed this as a surprise for their manager at their gig supporting CARAVAN PALACE at London KOKO in November 2012. You can hear the story in the mini documentary about that gig here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=id-zyjjOplY
