Featuring Carl Cox, No.7 DJ in the latest DJ Mag Top 100 DJs poll,
started DJ-ing from a very young age, mixing at family occasions
from the age of eight but his music career actually started in the
mid 80s as a hardcore rave scene DJ before switching to his
signature sound today: techno with funky and smooth grooves.
He runs his own record labels Intec Records and 23rd Century
and also hosts the world's fastest growing electronic weekly
music show, Global Radio. Along with him, the Japanese techno
icon Ken Ishii and Osaka's finest DJs will join and make the night
special. It is going to be a big one so be sure to get there early!

One of the busiest DJs and the Grammy winning DJ/production duo Deep Dish are coming
to Kansai at long last. Deep Dish was planning to play in Kyoto in December 2005 but they
had to cancel the gig due to visa issues at the last minute and the one half of the German
winning DJ/production duo, Ali Dubfire Shirazinia aka Dubfire will finally take revenge on
the Kyoto night at Troopcafe in Kobe. Dubfire and Sharam, the bearded half of Deep Dish,
have been working separately and Dubfire has released the latest compilation album Taipei
(GU31) from the globally acclaimed DJ mix series Global Underground shortly after his
partner's mix Dubai(GU29). While Sharam plays a relatively standard house sound, Dub-
fire's style is more diverse: he can heat up the dance floor with house to electro, tech house
to deep house, tribal to minimal and even some trance. Let's just hope the Kyoto calamity
doesn't happen again!
