Firuz' background is as exotic as his music. He was born and raised in his father's native country of Tajikistan. His gene pool is truly exotic, a real goulash of ancient civilizations and modern tribes. On his mother's side there's Russian, Ukranian, Polish and Greek blood, whereas his father's side are descendants of an ancient Persian royal dynasty. 
Firuz grew up in the mountainous region of Gorno Badakhshan surrounded by the Pamir mountains, some of the tallest in the world. The area borders Afghanistan, Kyrgyzstan and China. The Pamir population speaks ancient Persian languages unique to this world and has survived in their mountainous stronghold in spite of being in a troubled region. This mixture of civilizations has created a truly unique culture.
Key to the Pamir culture is music and dance. Any excuse is used to take out the drums and string instruments, such as the indiginous rubab, to create great tunes. Everybody joins in and soon you have a veritable jamfest with the entire village!
Firuz, like most other kids, learned to play various instruments. The real revolution came with satellite TV and music channels from abroad. Influenced by all these new sounds, he decided to learn English to better understand what they were talking about on MTV and soon began to incorporate Western music into the traditional, tribal music of his region. Many of his friends followed suit, some of them are now established music celebrities in various countries around the globe. 
 Firuz' taste for house music grew stronger and he started to play small gigs for friends and colleagues. Rumors soon spread and Firuz' popularity increased. 
After playing in various locations such as Russia (Moscow), Caucasus (Baku and Tbilisi), Middle East (Beirut) and USA (Miami), Firuz ended up in the cold, dark, northern country of Norway. Perfect for his mood, the long winter nights gave extra inspiration for his darker side and influenced his music further. Today, Firuz is well established as a popular and sought after DJ in his genre, pumping out his rhythms to a loyal and growing crowd of fans not only in Norway, but far beyond.
