Diesler‘s first release was Cotton Wool, part of Tru Thoughts Shapes One compilation: despite being written when he was only 20, the song still found its way onto Radio 1,a massive achievement for a debut track. This success was followed with the Ladies and Gentlemen Get Your Engines Ready EP in June 2004; a mixture of smooth, laid-back vibes and up tempo beats, from jazz and funk to Latin rhythms, it showcased Diesler‘s globe-trotting sound, and magpie-like ear for the best samples, to devastating effect.

He followed that up with his debut album & double vinyl EP releases Diggin It Somethin  Rotten in April 2005 and a calendar year later with Keepie Uppies, both of which are on  the Tru Thoughts label. His 3rd album, The Rhythm Station, was released in October  2007 on Freestyle Records and a remixes compilation, ‘Tracks On The Rocks‘ in  2009. His 4th Diesler LP ‘Tie Breakers‘ was released on Social Beats/Unique in  2010.
