UK based DJ, musicians and production duo Al and El whose cheeky humour and dancefloor production skills create a unique sound. Essentially an electronic breakbeat act, they include elements of jazz and particularly lounge music into their style. They also draw on other styles such as big band and indian. The result is a contemporary, often instrumental music that is much used by Games, Film and TV producers (FIFA, Adidas etc) and consequently many Skeewiff tracks will be subliminally familiar to a wide audience…They have also collaborated with 60’s legends like Hammond organist Alan Hawkshaw and remixed many similar acts like Lemon or Ursula 1000.
Mixing big beat, jive, eastern and jazz, this album is very cosmopolitan with a wicked sense of humour. It opens with glorious cinematic strings and swinging jive rhythms (Smash and Grab), which later meet with swaggering guitar riffs (Giggity), rolling basslines (Light the Fuse, Man of Constant Sorrow), twinkling keys (Triumph Stag) and smoking grooves (Husky). Skeewiff regulars Steve Murray and Peter Martin shine on vocals and bass, as does singer Charlise Rookwood who is ever so gloriously strong (Love Power), and Alan ‘The Hawk’ Hawkshaw is at his always best on keyboards.
