Music Review: Deep Dish Minus Sharam?
Rating: 5 Stars

Description of Global Underground: Toronto

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
