Diesel has been DJing and involved in the music business for over 30 years – starting in the mid 80s playing Jazz, Soul and Latin, through to the 90s, which was swept up by the early House music wave.
Throughout the 90s he began producing music as X-Press 2 with friends Rocky & Ashley Beedle. Alongside DJing and production he also worked for Virgin club promotions and A&R at Champion Records.
Diesel is currently working on the next Moton release as well as writing a new X-Press 2 project plus a regular radio show is in the pipeline, so watch this space.
We thought it’d be fun to do a little Q&A with Diesel so here goes:
BEST SCENE EVER

ONE OF YOUR MOST LOVED SOUNDTRACKS

LAST SUPPER

GUILTY PLEASURE

WHAT DO YOU LOVE TO COOK

So that concludes our Q&A with Diesel – now let’s get to the music 🎶
