A long-time fan favorite, the track has been setting the pace as the duo’s go-to opener at major shows – from 909 Festival in Amsterdam to London’s fabric and their BBC Radio 1 Essential Mix
Having stunned crowds for the past few months with this track as their set opener, Grammy-winning electronic music pioneers Deep Dish return with their highly anticipated second single following the end of a decade-long hiatus: ‘Dreaming’, featuring the hauntingly beautiful vocals, written and performed by acclaimed singer-songwriter Malou.
Continuing the momentum of their comeback, Deep Dish made a memorable debut at Glastonbury this year, playing two standout sets at the world-renowned festival last month. During their set at the Glade Area stage, Malou joined the pair for the first-ever live edition of ‘Dreaming’, met with an ecstatic crowd eager for their mind-melding performance.
“We wanted to create something that reflects where we’ve been, where we are, and where we're going,” said Deep Dish. “Working with Malou was incredibly inspiring; her voice brought an entirely new dimension to this project. And which better place to play it live together for the first time than at Glastonbury?
Malou adds: "I love the song Dreaming! When I was in the room with Deep Dish we created so many good songs but Dreaming is definitely the one where I feel most myself! One of my favorites."
Deep Dish, comprised of Ali “Dubfire” Shirazinia and Sharam Tayebi, have been at the forefront of electronic music for over two decades. Known for their influential remixes and genre-defining originals, their return to the studio – and the stage – has been met with global excitement from the dance music scene.
About Deep Dish
It’s hard to believe, but the Grammy-winning Washington D.C. duo Deep Dish are now three decades into their storied production career.
Their seminal debut album Junk Science home to classics like ‘Stay Gold’ and the Everything But The Girl collaboration ‘The Future of the Future’ has long been a staple on streaming platforms. But in summer 2024, their chart-topping second album ‘George Is On’ finally made its long-awaited digital debut. Thanks to a new partnership with Armada Music, fan favourites like ‘Say Hello’, ‘Dreams’ and ‘Flashdance’, along with remixes by Steve Angello, Paul Van Dyk, David Guetta and more, are now available on all major streaming and download services for the first time.
And that was only the beginning…
Spring 2025 marks a bold new era for Deep Dish as they release their first original music in over a decade. ‘Midnight’, the lead single from a forthcoming series, signals a return not just to form, but to forward motion - new music, fresh collaborators, evolving styles, and a revitalized tour schedule.
This next phase isn’t just a reunion, it’s a reinvention. With eyes on the future and roots planted firmly in their legacy, Deep Dish are ready to write the next chapter in their ongoing journey through sound. Exciting times lie ahead.
