Released 4/01 on Jalapeno Records. Taken from the album "It's All Gone". This puts the K back into kitsch - Miniskirt offers three delicious slices of the funkiest & cheekiest down-tempo retro gems you'll ever hear. These smile-inducing numbers are packed full of jazzy, funky breaks - essential.

  15. Jus' Do It
  16. Shag

Released 2000 on Jalapeno Records. What a great first album for Skeewiff! Including all the great tracks from the Miniskirt single, this release is a fun and goofy trip. "It's All Gone..." features a long sample from a frustrated tech support caller which you might've heard making the internet rounds a few years back. "Skeewiff vs Big Les" features on Ursula-1000's "All Systems Are Go Go" mix album. And "Boom!" is a silly bouncy beat. Thanks to Brian Harris for this additional information.

Track Listing:

CDS:

  3. G Fonk - Soul of Man Remix
12:
  1. G Fonk - Skeewiff Lick Mix
  2. G Fonk - Skeewiff Real Fonk Mix
  3. G Fonk - Soul of Man Remix
  4. That Was a Penalty!

Released 1999 on Ministry of Sound Recordings. Thanks to Brian Harris for the additional information on the CDS version. G Fonk comes equipped with its own fair share of Skeewiff craziness in the form of three excellent mixes (plus the sample crammed, rather short and nutty 'That Was a Penalty!'), with the Skeewiff Lick Mix being the better of the bunch. Its a fast paced breakbeat fuelled little number which is complemented nicely by the laid back Skeewiff Real Fonk Mix and Soul of Mans slightly beefier version. Quality tunes for slightly barmy dancefloors.

  18. Skeewiff vs. Eileen
  19. (Secret Track)

Released 2003 on Rambling Records (Japan). Back in style, Skeewiff show off a more polished album in this outing. Great standouts include the title track, Overdrive, the silly Skeewiff vs Eileen, and the opening Nitty Gritty. The version of A Little Less Conversation here is inferior to the dance-y mix on their website (while it's still there for the free download). While the album is now available in the UK, this Japanese release has an incorrect tracklisting and includes a correction on an inserted business card.Thanks to Brian Harris for this information.
