GU 031: Taipei - Mixed by Dubfire

Dubfire (a.k.a. Ali Shirazinia), one half of the Grammy Award winning and four-time nominated duo Deep Dish has teamed up with Global Underground to release his first-ever solo mix album in April.

Dubfire's GU 031: Taipei double CD mix features cuts from the likes of Julien Jabre, Booka Shade, X-Press 2, Robbie Rivera, Nitzer Ebb, as well as remixes by Paul Kalkbrenner, Peace Division, Carl Craig and Sebastian Ingrosso.

The mix also features Dubfire's original production "I Feel Speed;" a cover of an obscure Love & Rockets song that, for the first time, features his own vocals.

"This mix is more about who I am, as opposed to Deep Dish," says Dubfire. "This is an extension of all my influences from day one and where my head is at currently. I've always been about pushing the envelope musically and anytime there's a new sound, I'm paying attention."

Dubfire, along with his partner, Sharam Tayebi, the two DC-based friends have combined to form one of the most celebrated DJ duos in Dance Music. The Iranian-American duo first rose to prominence following the 1998 release of their debut album Junk Science.

Deep Dish also own and run record labels Yoshitoshi, Shinichi, and Yo. In addition, they also owned and operated a retail store (also named Yoshitoshi) in the Georgetown area of Washington, D.C., which closed in 2003, although their labels continue to release music.
