Few acts within the realm of electronic music can be worthy of the title ‘legends’, but X-Press 2 is without doubt one of them. After smashing onto the scene in 1993 with the seminal ‘Muzik X-Press’, Rocky, Diesel & Ashley Beedle have gone on to enjoy regular DJ slots at the world’s largest clubs, had chart success on numerous occasions (including a UK chart smash with ‘Lazy’) and won awards for their music.
We will all be taken on a trip down memory lane as the boys release their Greatest Hits double album ‘Raise Your Hands’, featuring all of their classic tracks as well as the superb brand new single ‘Fire’. Featuring the legendary Afrika Bambaata on vocals, ‘Fire’ is bound to be yet another top notch in their discography.
To celebrate the release, X-Press 2 have teamed up with the Europe’s premier dance music download store Trackitdown.net to offer an exclusive remix competition for the new single.
In addition to offering 300,000 tracks from over 10,000 labels to customers in over 180 countries, Trackitdown.net is the only download store with a dedicated Music Production channel. Currently the site has a selection of over 300 downloadable Sample Packs & VST Preset Packs with exclusive collections on offer from such esteemed producers as Nic Fanciulli, Lee Coombs, ILS, King Roc, Aquasky and Marshall Jefferson – the holy grail for any budding producer!
The Competition will open on 7th July 2008 and will last for one month, allowing producers time to download the remix parts and weave their vision of the future. The winner, as judged by the expert content team at Trackitdown and X-Press 2 themselves, will win themselves a digital release on Skint as well as £100 worth of Sample Packs from Trackitdown.net.
