The Disco Evangelists

The Disco Evangelists comprised Ashley Beedle, David Holmes and Lindsay Edwards. Originally released in Beedle's Black Sunshine Records before Positiva picked it up, their [m155761] hit referred to the eponymous actor's movie, Once Upon A Time In America. The follow-up, [m155760], also found a home on Positiva's release schedule. Beedle worked alongside the Stereo MC's Nick Hallam and Rob Birch as Axis (2) ('Rolling With Rai'), and as part of Workshy, X-Press 2, Black Science Orchestra and Marden Hill. In 1994, he unveiled a new outfit, Delta House Of Funk, which signed to Go! Discs. He has also worked remixes for Jodeci and [a9080] ('Deep'). Similarly Holmes is one of the most interesting and prolific of England's DJ fraternity, working as part of Scubadevils (with ex-members of Dub Federation) and running the Sugarsweet/Exploding Plastic Inevitable club/label emprire in Belfast.
