International mix series Coast2Coast crashes into London with X-Press 2 at the helm, driving a double disc mix of deep disco, shady minimal and twisted flashbacks, released through NRK Music on 3 March. Tracks and remixes come courtesy of Mr. Fingers, Robbie Rivera, Áme and Peace Division.

CD1 opens with the shimmering pianos and breezy vocals of X-P2 feat Bernard Fowler and 'Don't Make Me Wait,' before we're dragged into the depths by Carl Craig's warped remix of Johnny Blas' 'Picadillo.' Presence's 'The Strength,' ushers in nagging bass, fuzzy synths and soft murmurs, which spins into the demonic electronics of Master C & J's 'Dub Love.' The ambient Mr Fingers' 'Stars' draws a close to CD 1, whilst the flip-side opens with the stealthy piano of Skat's 'This Is.' The purring synths and twisted bass of Andre Kraml's 'Dirty Fingernails' slowly take hold, before Dennis Ferrer delivers the jacking house of 'Transitions,' punctuated with high-claps and bongo licks. Slam Mode's remix of Frankie Valentine's 'Paradise Regained' welcomes us on an epic journey of ethereal synths and space age echoes, and Oxia ends with his anthemic dancefloor monster, 'Domino.'

Says Coast2Coast's Nick Harris: "X-Press 2 are the first UK DJs to appear on the Coast2Coast series, and I couldn't think of any others who represent the house spectrum as well. Their mix is an aural delight of current house sounds, as well as a heavy nod to the past.  X-Press 2 always explore, and here they deliver Berlin minimalism, cosmic disco, afro beat, tribal house and Chi-town classics!"

Coast2Coast debuted in Oct '06 with a mix from Quentin Harris, and a manifesto to promote the finest DJ and production talent from around the world. The focus is on the music and selector, supplying quality independent mixes from the underground. Since, the likes of Kerri Chandler, Ame and Karizma have all taken to the decks to showcase the Coast2Coast vibe.

X-Press 2 Potted History: First blazing onto the club scene with 'Muzik X-Press' in the early 90s, X-Press 2 went on to release anthems such as 'AC/DC,' 'Muzikizum' and the all conquering 'Lazy.' Debut album 'Muzikizum' charted at #15 and even saw Ashley, Rocky and Diesel win an Ivor Novello. Sophomore album 'Makeshift Feelgood' explored Balearic territory and teamed the lads up with Bernard Fowler, Kissing The Pink and Kurt Wagner, spawning underground cuts 'Kill 100' and 'Witchi Tai To.' They're currently writing new material for inclusion on their retrospective compilation due in May, which includes 'Muzik Express,' 'Lazy' and rare remixes of both their own, and other artists' material.
