One of last year’s surprises was the appearance of Deep Dish’s Ali ‘Dubfire’ Shirzinia as a floor-destroying minimal warrior, slaughtering clubs with corkers like ‘Roadkill’ and ‘I Feel Speed’. The Dish always had that harder edge and thirst for the unknown within their massively-accessible anthems. This was given free rein when Ali started his own label, initially for his own missives but now bringing in producers he admires, like this seventh release which sees Steve Lawler on fearsome form with a towering foray into the twisted house domain he does so well. The groove is a heaving bass monster, nudged with an insistent glitch then the killer moment starts – a gradually rising plane engine set for take-off which insists on making the return journey. One of the oldest tricks in the book, sure, but with the runway it’s got to depart from this is guaranteed carnage which will undoubtedly blow several thousand brains clean through the ceiling in Ibiza at eight in the morning. This tune’s almost a criminal offence, such is the damage quotient, delivered by a master crowd-cracker.
