X-Press 2 consist of British house DJ’s Darren House, Darren Rock and formerly Ashley Beedle. A pioneering spirit that fueled early Nineties underground anthems such as “Muzik Express”, “AC/DC” and “Smoke Machine”.
Explaining the band’s name, Darren Rock (aka ‘DJ Rocky’) explained that acid house legend Terry Farley of Fire Island came up with it. Rocky said, “We were originally going to call ourselves Rock 2 House, but [Farley] wasn’t really into that. So he renamed us X-Press 2. He basically liked the S’Express so kind of adapted that.”
X-Press 2 first rose to underground prominence through the tracks “Muzik Express” and “London Xpress” which were both released on Junior Boys Own Records. X-Press 2 also gained plaudits on the club scene for regularly playing in clubs with their multi-decked (up to six decks with three DJs) sets.
