THESE limited edition Afterclub CDs from Sharam and Dubfire are bonus to their main Toronto mix set and give the Deep Dish duo room to take a more personal approach. Wide-ranging, yet cohesive, they’re individual halves of the Deep Dish sound – the music both past and present that makes up their musical whole.
"We just wanted to remind everyone that there is Deep Dish and there is Dubfire and Sharam," says Dubfire, aka Ali Shirazina. "It’s just showcasing our individual styles." Both Ali and Sharam were already DJ-ing before they teamed up, he emphasizes and both continue to play separate shows.
Afterclub’s loose agenda lets Sharam and Dubfire stretch the musical boundaries a little further. For Dubfire, these limited-edition, personalised mixes aren’t just a chance to stretch the musical agenda. They’re also about letting vintage dance-floor anthems prove themselves against current favourites. "We wanted to incorporate some of the classics we were brought up with," he says. "We decided to incorporate some of the classics into the newer tracks and show how these tracks are timeless." His opener, Korsakov’s "Deep In Space", is a track so drunk in dub it can barely walk. Then comes a forgotten diamond. Love Quartet’s "Kiss Me (Don’t Be Afraid)" is a sexy, sinewy deep house classic from pioneering early 90s Italian label Heartbeat. Underworld’s mix of St Etienne’s "Cool Kids of Death" provides another golden moment, shimmering with blessed melodies and shaking with dubwise rhythms.
But Dubfire has as many modern moments as he has classics. And the sleek, hypnotic, reggae-disco Deep Dish remixes of Timo Maas’s Kelis team-up, "Help Me" make an excellent counter-point. He’s firing on all cylinders by the time we reach the two closing numbers from Deep Dish’s Yoshitoshi label: Anarcrusan’s throbbing, techno-driven "In My Mind" and Morel’s pulsating "Cabaret" with its weirdly echoed vocal. Both conclude Dubfire’s Afterclub party on a delirious high
