Deep Dish Information
|
|
'Deep Dish' is a DJ and dance music duo consisting of Iranian-American members Ali "Dubfire" Shirazinia and Sharam Tayebi. Based in Washington, DC they are well known for providing house or dance remixes of tracks by very famous stars like Madonna, Cher and Gabrielle, and for their live DJing sets. They often collaborate with DC artist Richard Morel and produced a dance hit with his song "True (the Faggot is You)". Earlier collaborations include "The Future of the Future (Stay Gold)" with British group Everything But the Girl. This track appeared on Deep Dish's artist album, Junk Science, which was released in 1998.
More recently, Deep Dish have remixed tracks by artists such as Dido ("Thank You" and "Stoned") and the collaboration between Timo Maas and Kelis ("Help Me"). The duo won a Grammy Award for their "Thank You" remix. Deep Dish have also collaborated with Danny Howells to remix the Eminem track "Without Me" (as a bootleg).
Deep Dish have appeared as the featured artist on the BBC Radio 1 Essential Mix on several occasions, most recently in 2004 when their set from Creamfields, Liverpool, England was broadcast live on the show on the 29th of August.
They also own and run dance music record labels Deep Dish, Yoshitoshi, and Yo, among others with the aid of their first Label Manager Chuck Roder. In addition, they owned and operated a retail store (also named Yoshitoshi) in the Georgetown area of D.C., which sold dance records and clothing. The store closed in 2003, although their labels continue to release music, mostly on the 12 inch single vinyl format.
July 2005 sees the release of their second artist album, George Is On, which features their recent Hot Dance Music/Club Play chart hit "Flashdance" (which features Anousheh Khalili), as well as a remake of the classic Fleetwood Mac song "Dreams", for which Stevie Nicks provided new vocals. "Say Hello," the second single released from the album, hit number one on the dance chart in September 2005, becoming their second dance chart-topper (their first being the collaboration with Everything But the Girl in 1998).
