		Sharam Get Wild

Oh the days of old when Sharam "Sharam" Tayebi & Ali "Dubfire" Shirazinia ruled the clubs with their infectious deep and moody house grooves under the guise of Deep Dish. Nowadays the pair has split to take on different projects which seem to gather more of the ’moment’ club kids rather than the ones that hold onto and respect more refined sounds. Pairing up with more influential artists of today like Kid Cudi & Diddy make for great singles that get success in the clubs but the longevity of them sizzle and fade away in time. The cowboy themed album has different results for all types, considering Sharam & Kid Cudi worked on She Came Along. The modernized hip hop fueled danceable track carries Patsy Clines haunting voice over the somewhat soulful and gritty track. But much like some remixes of musical icons such as Elvis & Johnny Cash the spur of the moment idea sudden dissolves into trash over time as people loss respect for the original songs. A lot of the tracks here slide in and out of progressive and electro tendencies leaving no soul without a light to guide them into some sanity. I’ll admit the Diddy remake work on PATT (1985’s CBS hit with Eddie Murphy - Party All The Time) got me hooked but the rambling lyrics from Diddy eventual lost me in the stir of the moment infatuation of the original track. I hope Eddie Murphy got his fair cut for the use of his vocal sample. But as I digress from the monotony of progressive mush and hacked remakes I will settle on the last track as being something I can ease into and also utilize. Once Upon A Time In The West calms the nerves from all the racket and puts up into a kind of cosmic cowboy down tempo state of mind. Hard to imagine but saddle up and take it easy.
