Members Ali Shirazinia and Sharam Tayebi were both born in Iran, however didn’t cross paths until 1991 at a dance event in Washington, D.C. The pair were in similar boats, both immersed in the thriving local DJ scene and both performing menial retail jobs they hated. A year later the duo created the label Deep Dish Records and made their debut production with the 1992 single “A Feeling” by Moods.
In 1993 Shirazinia’s old school friend Brian Transeau recorded the singles “A Moment of Truth” and Relativity” and Deep Dish produced and released them on their label. It wasn’t long before the songs were making their mark on dancefloors across the country, and the release led to a connection with Detroit, U.S. producer Carl Craig increasing the duo’s street credibility. Then the pair hit the big time, Deep Dish began to rule the Washington D.C. house scene and they formed the sub-label Yoshitoshi and released material by Submarine, Satori, Alcatraz and Hani.
After signing with the new Tribal America subsidy of UK label Tribal Records, the pair made waves on the dance charts with productions including “High Frequency” and “Casa de X”. Deep Dish’s full length mix debut came in 1995, being the production hands on compilations for Tribal America.
1995 brought the duo’s commercial and mainstream breakthrough with a laundry-list of high-profile, well-received remixes including work for Michael Jackson, Tina Turner, Janet Jackson, Pet Shop Boys, and Kristine W. Not content to sit on their thumbs and release only mix albums, Deep Dish made their original material debut “Junk Science” in 1998, followed by the mix albums “Yoshiesque”, “Renaissance Ibiza” and a second “Yoshieque” in 2001.
The duo earned a Grammy nomination for Remixer of the Year for their remix of Madonna’s single “Music” and Amber’s “Sexual (La Da Di)”. A year later their remix of Dido’s “Thank You” won them the award in 2002 and the same year they also won the Dancestar USA’s “Best Compilation” award for their “Global Underground: Moscow mix-CD”.
Deep Dish is a DJ group that consists of two DJs, Ali "Dubfire" Shirazinia and Sharam Tayebi. These individuals are Iranian-American and formed their group in Washington D.C.
Deep Dish was nominated for 2 Grammys, one for Madonna's "Music", and another for Dido's "Thank You." They won the Grammy for Best Remixed Recording for their remix of "Thank You". They released 2 albums through their duration, but they also released plenty of singles and remixes. They had four singles reach number one on the charts.
I got to watch Deep Dish perform live in 2014 at the Ice Palace in Miami, Florida. They performed at an indoor venue but the venue had a very large capacity, and the fans certainly filled the venue up. They did not have many props, and the visuals only included a bunch of bright flashing strobe lights. The music was really the reason everyone was there and it became very obvious once it started playing. The music was very dancy and it caused a lot of people to jump up and down and dance. I had a fantastic time at this concert and it seemed like everyone else who was there also enjoyed it. I would recommend this band to anyone who is in a dancing mood. If you attend a performance by Deep Dish you won't be alone when you start to dance!
Guy J, also known as Guy Judah is a DJ and Producer originally from Israel. He has a very distinct style of music with his electronic dance music, making audiences dance on an international level. His style is that of an electro pop style, with the relaxing tones of his song “Lost & Found” making this audience dance this evening, on this boat, in the River Thames. It’s definitely a worthy venue, and this crowd has paid some good money for the tickets indeed! The champagne is flowing and the soundtrack is fantastic. The swells from these synthesizer pads coincide with four to the floor drumbeats seamlessly. “Dizzy Moments” is an equally atmospheric song that has its ambient qualities. I personally quite enjoy the fact that it can be at the forefront of your attention or fan fade nicely into the background, as you catch up with friends on the deck of the boat. Guy J, despite appearing rather timid at first is very thankful to the audience for their attention and their dancing.

Talented Djs are becoming an endangered species in today’s ‘All EDM Everything’ culture which is why, when you see James Zabiela behind the decks, you know you’re in for a rare treat. There’s no hiding behind a laptop with James, just a seasoned professional showcasing what a lost art true Djing is in today’s culture. The Southampton native rose to prominence predominantly playing a unique fusion of Breakbeat, House and more recently Tech House however he is perhaps most well-known for his advanced techniques and use of innovative DJing equipment. On any given night you can see James manipulating everything from an Ipad to various Midi controllers in order to utilize loops and samples and really stamp his personality on his sets. He can win over any crowd, easily having a packed club shaking along to his more breaksy numbers whilst appealing to the more tech savy fans at the same time who will no doubt be glued to the desk watching his every move. Go see James Zabiela and remind yourself of what a real Dj does before they all die out.

Bäumel's set was one of the best i've ever heard, from start to finish had me hooked. Wish i could live it over and over again. Such a great guy too, appreciated the crowd and was nice enough to have a chat with me.
Would recommend seeing him when you have the chance
