Mirwais Ahmadzai, more commonly known simply as Mirwais, is a Paris-based record producer and song writer.
Mirwais is a leader in the French style of progressiveelectronic dance music. A former member of the defunct 1980s group Taxi Girl, he was re-discovered by Madonna in the late 1990s when he submitted a demo to her then record label Maverick Records.
He signed to Sony for his US release Production which spawned two club hits, "Disco Science" and "Naïve Song".
Madonna however managed to recruit him for writing and production collaboration on her two albums Music and American Life. Credits include both title tracks plus the interesting and catchy "Impressive Instant", "Don't Tell Me", "Hollywood", "Nobody Knows Me", "Love Profusion", "Nothing Fails" and the eerie "Paradise (Not For Me)".

Este sonidillo un tanto Mirwais, engancha y de que manera.
Born in Switzerland to an Italian mother and an Afghanistani father (his family relocated to Paris when he was six-years-old), Mirwais' demand for distinction was obvious long before he began delighting the world's dancefloors and backroom lounges with his gritty, space-age grooves.
Mirwais' superb production and songwriting efforts on Music refined the sonic persona of the world's premier musical icon to the applause of consumers and critics across the globe, topping the charts in 34 countries and earning the duo three Grammy nominations.
It also thrust Mirwais into the high court of modern electronic musicians faster than you can say "boogie-woogie." But Production proves the man doesn't need to ride the coattails of a superstar pop diva to cement his status as the new millenium's most innovative and inspired musician.
