As X-Press 2, Rocky, Diesel and Ashley Beedle have made a plethora of classic dancefloor 12"s. 'Muzik X-Press', 'London X-Press', 'Say What-', 'AC/DC', 'Muzikizum', 'Smoke Machine' and now the trio's new single 'Lazy' looks set to invade the charts with vocals from David Byrne (from the seminal Talking Heads), whilst their much anticipated new album 'Muzikizum' will blow up this April.

Over the past year, X-Press 2 have been putting the drama back into DJing with six deck DJ performances that used effects-ridden mic performances from Ashley, CD-players and basic samplers to send crowds at London's Fabric and Ibiza's Pacha wild. 'We like a bit of a challenge and it certainly creates something of a potent atmosphere,'says Rocky. 'It's like a jam, really, it's not rehearsed, we're inspired continually on the shenanigans on the dancefloor. We play two records each and we go round like a tag thing. Whoever's playing the tune coming out the speakers, the other two can cut in effects, beats, acappellas. It becomes like a wall of sound.' Catch the X-Press 2 wall of sound in the Underwater/Subliminal/Back2Basics Arena at HOMELANDS.
