Read Full BioAs one-half of Sfere Recordings along with house legend Kerri Chandler, Dennis Ferrerโs name has rapidly built momentum over the past five years amongst house music aficionados. Ferrer's soulful and afro-house influenced productions have appeared on leading house music labels stateside and in Europe. With a discography of original productions that extend from respected labels such as Sfere, Ibadan, Large, and King Street to Basic Recordings, Madhouse and Chillifunk, Ferrer is poised at the very top of the game. He is also widely accepted as one of the leading remixers of this generation of deep house producers and has lent additional production to multiple works on Distant, Defected, Papa, King Street, Large and Slip n Slide labels to name a few. Hits of the past include afro-house biggies โFunuโ (Basic Recordings), โKo Koโ (Ibadan), โReach 4 Freedomโ (Kingstreet) and โDem People Goโ (Kingstreet) to soulful numbers such as โWonderful Peopleโ (Metaphor), โJoy to the Worldโ (Sfere) and his classic Soul Collective series on Large Records. Currently buzzing from the Ferrer catalogue: his exquisite production of โItโs A Beautiful Lifeโ, a remix of S.U.M.O.โs โStayโ, and the sublime โSandcastlesโ (co-produced with Ibadanโs Jerome Sydenham), reworkings of DโJaiminโs โOule Ouleโ (Slip Nโ Slide) and Dubtribe Sound Systemโs โNothing Is Impossibleโ (Defected).
Ferrerโs interest in production and dance first led him into the world of early 90โs electronic music. After a number of years working with the critically acclaimed Synewave label from New York, he connected with Kerri Chandler who re-introduced him to the soul and funk of music from his youth via House. Ferrerโs love of such artists as T-Connection, DJ Rodgers, early Herbie Hancock, early Cameo and Confunkshun finally found ways to surface in his music. Chandler instantly recognized Ferrerโs talent for production and business sense and together they formed Sfere Recordings in 1998 (Sfere being a name derived from Chandlerโs Shelter / Ibadan classic โAtmosphereโ combined with Ferrerโs old techno alias โAurasphereโ). The label was devised with the ambitions of exploring many different aspects of soulful house including Brazilian, Gospel and Jazz sounds. The emphasis at Sfere is clearly, however, focused on songs since both partners believe in the timelessness of a great song.
Ferrerโs DJ career runs in tangent with his increased visibility as a producer and his creative reach covers five continents. December 2003 saw his return to South Africa for a Heineken sponsored series of events alongside UK DJ powerhouse, Pete Tong. He has traveled to multiple European markets and played with regularity in many of the major venues in countries such as the UK (MOS, Soul Heaven, Back To Basics, Ultragroove, Angel Deelite, Neighbourhood), France (Cheers, Sunslice Festival, LโAmbassade, La Noche Festival, Queen), Scandinavia (Hultsfred Festival, Jeriko), Benulux (Pizzaz!), Russia (Propaganda), Greece (Balux), Italy (Red Zone), Japan (Module) and S. E. Asia (Club Ohm and Rouge). In North America he has crossed the continent with performances in NYC, San Diego, San Francisco, Chicago, Miami, LA, Toronto and Montreal.

Hey Hey
Dennis Ferrer Lyrics
Just an ordinary day
Till you came around
I had my feet on the ground
So much for that
Just an ordinary day
Till you came around
And now my life's upside down
Imagine that
And it's all because I heard you say
And it's all because I heard you say
And it's all because I walked your way
I heard you say
And I heard you say
Hey hey
Oh just right
You got to sit tight
Close your eyes
And let your head go down
Let your feet up off the ground
Just an ordinary day
Till you came around
I had my head straight and sound
They've told me that
Just an ordinary day
Till you came around
And now my life is on the bounce
Just like that
And it's all because I walked your way
And it's all because I heard you say
And I should've known to stay away
But I heard you say
I heard you say
And I heard you say
Hey hey
