It's Friday . . . Let's Dance




Let's continue the celebration of possibly the most important dance collective/label(s) of the early nineties with the third release by X-Press 2.

X-Press 2 are a trio comprising of Rocky, Diesel and Ashley Beadle, the former 2 were a DJ duo who also produced some excellent remixes in the early days an example of which can be found a couple of posts back. Ashley Beadle is a prolific house producer, some of the guises he has produced records under are the Ballistic Brothers (also with Rock & Diesel and David Hill), The Black Science Orchestra who also had releases on JBO, The East Village Loft Society and many more.

Say What! is probably my favourite track by X-Press 2, although it didn't get the same attention as either Musik Xpress or London X-Press. It just bounces along with amazing energy and I just love the breakdown about 4 and 1/2 mins in. All in all a good track for a Friday.

Rocky tells a great tale of being asked to sing lazy by a nice young man. "sing lazy you cunt" was the polite request
