X-Press 2 were one of the principal house acts in the early '90s, rocking the floors with cuts like post-hardcore progressive house cut 'Muzik Xpress' — with its memorable “Music, music, music” refrain — and the cowbell-tastic 'London Xpress'.

Drew Lustman, aka FaltyDL, grew up in Connecticut and after flunking out of college by doing too many drugs, was lucky enough to have his early music signed by Mike Paradinas, aka µ-Ziq, for Planet Mu Records in the UK.

They put performance back into the market place when the scene was on the verge of digital DJing boredom.
