This is a continuous in-the-mix CD compiled and mixed by Deep Dish.
So for their 25th release, Global Underground recruited the dynamic duo once again to contribute to the long-running series. Two years prior, Deep Dish released one of the highlights of the entire Global Underground catalog with its Moscow mix, and now the duo has returned to pay homage to Toronto. And while they don't necessarily mix in any music from local producers, they've managed to capture the spirit of the city's house scene perfectly, complete with the atmosphere from the city's largest club (Guvermnent). The first disc kicks things off with an excursion into deeper territories of house music. Not exactly Naked Music-styled deep house, but nonetheless more soulful than previous mix CDs in the series, this ramps up into more familiar Deep Dish territory of darker, more tribal-house, hinting at the progressive house elements to come. The second disc loses pace with the ending of the first disc a bit, but still retains a strong dose of high-tech soul to keep things fluid. The back-to-back mixes of Paul Rogers' "Krafty" step things up a bit right before the mix is brought to an interesting peak with Maurce & Noble's "Hoochikoochi" and the Youngsters' "Break Them Up," a track whose inspiration sounds vaguely similar to the Underground Resistance classic "Knights of the Jaguar." It's a strong mix delivered by a duo that fails to perform anything less than outstanding. As a bonus, two separate discs were also issued featuring both members of Deep Dish performing "after-hours" sets. ~ Rob Theakston
Limited edition Afterclub CD from Sharam is a bonus to their main Toronto mix double CD set and give the Deep Dish duo (Dubfire being the other half) 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. 13 tracks. Global Underground. 2003.

Global Underground: Toronto album
 $24.05  
This entry into the ongoing Global Underground series represents perhaps the most eclectic mix to date, as Lee Burridge manages to teeter somewhere between straight-ahead mid-tempo house rhythms and dynamic breaks. And he doesn't just follow house records with breaks, but rather spins tracks that feature both styles of beats interwoven within the rhythms. So, given this untraditional approach, Burridge presents a set that's, at the least, always interesting. You're never quite sure where he's headed -- sometimes moving away from breaks towards a more grounded, 4/4 rhythm, other times doing quite the opposite. Furthermore, the ubiquitous progressive sound that has so long been a staple of the Global Underground series is, for the most part, absent here. Yet as unique as this album is within the context of the other Global Underground albums, it's not without flaws. In particular, the first set often drags, with its somewhat plodding tempo ...

Global Underground: Toronto CD music
$21.05 
This is a continuous in-the-mix CD compiled and mixed by Deep Dish.
"Thank You (Deep Dish Vocal Remix)" won the 2002 Grammy Award For Best Remixed Recording.
Incredibly nocturnal and hypnotic, propelled from the beginning of the first set to the end of the second with gigantic basslines and murky vocal dubs, Deep Dish's debut mix for the long-running Global Underground series is absolutely enveloping. It submerses you with its weight and its darkness as well as its numbing sense of bliss. Where much of progressive house around the time of this album's release in late 2001 had become too melancholic and weighed down for its own good, feeling more like a come-down than a sensual rush, Dubfire and Sharam don't fall victim to these tendencies on Global Underground: Moscow like they had a few months earlier on their lumbering Yoshiesque, Vol. 2 mix. First of all, they drop plenty of vocal tracks. These aren't your traditional vocal house tracks, but rather the sort of vocal dubs that bury ...
