About George Is On
Review "A sexy, cohesive set. B+" -- Entertainment Weekly"Deep Dish give the world's biggest dancefloor what they crave...big ass hits." -- BPM, June/July, 2005"The Grammy Award winning duo Deep Dish have raised the bar with the brand-new CD 'George Is On" -- AOL Music"George Is On is full of everything you've come to know and love from Deep Dish and more." -- DJ Times Product Description The Iranian duo has created a landmark release that could prove to be the defining work of their careers. The album features guest spots from Stevie Nicks on the stirring cover of 'Dreams', Planet Funk's Alex Neri on 'Swallow Me', Janis Leahy on 'Dub Shepherd', and Richard Morel (of 'Driving To Heaven' fame) on 'Sacramento', the electro-rock of 'Everybody's Wearing My Head', and the album finale, 'No Stopping For Nicotine (Floating)'. Anousheh Khalili, meanwhile, shows her vocal reach on the hit 'Flashdance', the emotive 'Awake Enough', and current single, 'Say Hello'. Deep Dish's own Ali steps up to the mic for 'In Love With A Friend', a masterstroke of epic melancholia that should have Chris Martin reaching for his songbook. Thrive. 2005. About the Artist Primarily known as producers and remixers, the Iranian-born, Washington D.C.-based DJ duo Deep Dish last put out a true "artist record" in 1998 with Junk Science. George Is On justifies the long pause with a fun, bouncy mix that's inventive in the best, most effortless sense of the word. The focus on pop structure in songs like "Flashdance" is refreshing after sprawling DJ releases like 2003's dual set of Global Underground: Toronto records. The doses here are smaller, and it makes the medicine go down nice and smooth. Still, their DJ gift for recasting the familiar pays off hugely as well; take their remake of Fleetwood Mac's "Dreams," which sounds iffy in concept, but is pure butter here with help from newly-recorded vocals by Stevie Nicks herself. Or "Flashing For Money," a remix of "Flashdance" that astutely slips in Dire Straits' "Money For Nothing." By leveraging their strengths in such a focused package, Deep Dish has come up with a record that stands up to anything else they've produced or recorded in their impressive career. --Matthew Cooke
