Global Underground 029: Sharam, Dubai is a DJ mix album in the Global Underground series, compiled and mixed by Iranian-American DJ and producer Sharam Tayebi of the house music duo Deep Dish.

Contents

As darlings of the GU faithful, Deep Dish could do no wrong, so Sharam’s solo return to the label was greeted with much joy. As an exercise in pointing out how his and Dubfire’s tastes differ – and what they each brought to the celebrated DD partnership – this double CD can be held up against Dubfire’s later GU031 for a fascinating insight.

Sharam isn’t afraid of vocals and occasional pop sensibilities, but remains true to the underground spirit of the series with a flawless mix. His choice of the latest clubbing frontier - the fast rising Gulf city of Dubai - sits well with his own personal new era. Bold new music for the glitzy new metropolis.
