sonstiges	X-PRESS 2 (Skint Rec., Sony Rec. / UK) Presenting, for your foot-tapping pleasure and mind-expanding enjoyment, the men of X-Press 2. The last time they were here, their humungous fanbase propelled their vinyl-only 12-inches - sold without a barcode, only in HMV - thumping into the charts. But they’ve been away for a while, sweating in the DJ trenches, frequenting international clubs aplenty, trapped in the studio with Sixties sunshine-pop LPs, wrangling vocal stars from far and wide. But four years after they - and David Byrne - swaggered to Number Two in the charts with ‘Lazy’, then waltzed home with an Ivor Novello Award (how proper is that?), the X-Press 2 three are back. X-PRESS 2 (UK)Back with Makeshift Feelgood, the follow-up to the 100,000 selling Muzikizum. Back with an album you’ll be rocking all summer, and into the wintry beyond. Presenting Rocky, Diesel and Ashley Beedle. Gentlemen, if you will: describe your role in X-Press 2. Diesel: ‘Indescribable.’ Beedle: ‘That’s a really hard one.’ Rocky: ‘We all have an equal role in X-Press 2. All bringing our own ideas and influences to the session. Some days one person may take up the baton and the rest of us will leave them to it. We’re basically all sound designers that work with a great engineer (Greg Fleming), who actually makes sense of our madness!’ Once upon a happy hour, Rocky, Diesel and Ashley Beedle’s roles could be described as ‘just’ three of the UK’s most respected DJs, backroom boffins and committed partiers. They gigged and produced and remixed together, and separately, and as The Ballistic Brothers. Uniting in the studio in the early Nineties and shifting shape into X-Press 2, they marshalled their unparalleled knowledge of the history of house to make huge, hard-hitting, one-off singles for Junior Boy’s Own, beginning with wee hours clubfloor monsters ‘Muzik Express’ and ‘London Xpress’. As the millennium turned they re-emerged as artists, now signed to Skint, with ‘AC/DC’. If you went clubbing even once in the last decade-and-a-half, you clubbed to X-Press 2. In 2002 they took another hairpin curve and dropped ‘Lazy’, the now-classic sound of Talking Heads’ David Byrne oozing laidback funk over sublime beats. The parent album Muzikizum was largely instrumental, but the massive single was a different kettle of big fish, little fish. Nighttime pleasures gave way to daytime radio; darkened clubfloors yielded to bold, colourful pop: X-Press 2 had moved into sunny pastures new. Then, silence from X-Press 2. Were Rocky, Diesel and Beedle frightened by becoming, long after they’d left short trousers, something like pop stars? Were they paralysed by the question of how to follow a landmark modern dance tune? Where have they been for the last four years? Beedle: ‘Making this bloody album!’ Diesel: ‘In the past four years a lot had changed. We changed, the scene changed… So a lot of the time was used up starting ideas and then second-guessing them. But yeah, we did put a lot of pressure on ourselves by having had a successful record and trying to continue down that path. So there was a lot of to-ing and fro-ing with ideas.’ Rocky: ‘We’re DJs, so we have to fit the studio work around that. We’ve also worked a lot harder on this album than anything that we’ve ever done before. On several occasions, we’ve either completely reworked certain tracks or scrapped them altogether. It’s ‘cause of that, coupled with the fact that we all have families and solo projects that we spend time on, that the album has taken so long to finish.’ Ever creatively restless, Rocky, Diesel and Beedle wanted - needed - their second album to be another move forward. It would be bigger in scale, even as they limited themselves to the tools available in their pokey studio in Hammersmith, west London (no spunking of royalties on fancy foreign studios for them; anyway, being international DJ royalty, they have enough airmiles behind them). It would be more song-oriented. It would have more vocal contributions. It would frankly, be more of an album album. As Rocky puts it, ‘the new album has moved from only sounding good at three in the morning - we’d like to think that it sounds pretty good at three in the afternoon too.’ Last autumn saw the release of a teaser single, ‘Give It’. A seven-minute, slow-building gospel-house epic, it features the distinctive hickory-smoked voice of alt.country hero and sometime floor-layer Kurt Wagner of Lambchop... click for more / več o tem (X-PRESS 2 Biography 2006, in Word file). DJ MARK KNIGHT (Toolroom records / London, UK) Man of the moment is a tag that has been firmly attached to Mark for the last year, both in the press and on the radio. A string of consistently hot productions and remixes (everyone from Kylie to Steve Lawler) has catapulted him to the top of the dance charts and his profession, Making Mark a firm favourite with the likes of Roger Sanchez, Deep Dish, Steve Lawler, X-press 2 & Many More! This has been backed with consistent Radio 1 plays from Pete Tong and fellow DJs. If you are a DJ you will almost certainly have a Mark Knight record in your box. With a soaring profile it wasn't long before Mark was approached by the Ministry of Sound to be their new Resident DJ. Not only in the club in London on Saturdays, but also for their World Tours. Taking him on a regular basis to Russia, Poland, USA, Spain, Argentina and Hungary. With tours in South East Asia and Australia, there are very few places you won't be able to catch Mark this year. If that wasn't enough, Mark and his brother Stuart started the label Toolroom Records in 2004. A label that gained instant recognition by the world's major players, both on radio and in the clubs, and continues to be at the forefront of house music. Recently quoted by Radio 1 as "label of the moment" in a special feature on House Music.
