The first single under the Syste… Read Full Bio ↴System F is an alias of Ferry Corsten.
The first single under the System F alias was "Out Of The Blue". This track was released in March 1999 on Tsunami, a label of Dutch record company Purple Eye. Ferry had already finished this track in 1998. Because he released some other tracks on Tsunami, he already had contact with Maykel Piron. After listening to the track, Maykel immediately signed the track.
Before the official release, some limited one-sided promo vinyls were send to a few DJs. The only information on this vinyl was a white label with a stamped mobile number and the text "Out of the Blue". Nick Warren (from Way Out West) and Pete Tong, the owner of Essential recordings, both received the vinyl. After listening, Nick Warren phoned Hooj Choons and they made an offer. Pete Tong of Essential recordings also made an offer. At some point Pete Tong said that he was going to Amsterdam and that Ferry and his manager should come to the airport to close the deal there. The deal was closed at Schiphol Airport, and some time later Pete flew back to the UK. "Out Of The Blue" was released worldwide on several labels.
A year later, Ferry released the follow up, Cry. This track was produced together with Robert Smit. It was a vocal track. The vocals were done by Saskia Lie-Atjam. "Cry" was released in February 2000 on the Tsunami Label.
Later in 2000 the first System F album was released. On November 2000 the album Out Of The Blue was released on the Tsunami label. Ferry worked with some artists for the album, like Marc Almond and Armin van Buuren. With Marc he did Soul on Soul and with Armin he made Exhale. Marc Almond is known from Soft Cell.
In 2001 Ferry made under the system f alias the dance valley theme.
Also the Out the Blue album was re-released that year and it contained now the dance valley theme.
Tracks like Solstice, Needlejuice, Soul on Soul and Exhale were all released on a single. In 2003 the track Spaceman was released on Tsunami Special Blend. Ferry released also the second System F album Together, but this was only for the japanese market. It was released on Avex trax. There was no european release, but some shops imported it. In this year ferry made a second track together with Armin van Buuren; From The Heart. This track was released on Armind and appeared also on armin's album 76. The last System F track was Ignition, Sequence, Start. First it was released on Avex Trax in 2003 and later on Tsunami in 2004.
Ferry made also some remixes under the system f alias. He made a remix for Yoji Biomehanika's track A Theme From Bangingglobe under the system f alias. There are also system f remixes from the tracks Connected and Kanariya from japanese singer Ayumi Hamasaki.
Today Ferry no longer produces under the alias system f. Since 2003, after the second system f album, he decided to quit with all his aliasses (except gouryella, which he keeping) He produce now under his own name. He also left Tsunami in 2005 to start his own record company, Flashover Recordings. Maykel Piron, his former manager, has moved to armada.

Spread your wings and fly with me
Fly with me
I'm an angel set me free
Spread your wings and fly with me
Fly with me
Come with me I'll set you free
Spread your wings and fly with me
Fly with me
I'm an angel set me free
Spread your wings and fly with me
Fly with me
Come with me I'll set you free
I'm an angel in disguise
You don't see the things that I see
Take my hand put your faith in me

The lyrics to System F's "Spread Your Wings" speak of the desire to take flight, to see the world from a different perspective. The repeated lyric "spread your wings" is a metaphor for opening oneself up to new experiences, to breaking free from limitations and allowing oneself to soar. The line "I'm an angel set me free" suggests that the singer may be an angel, but also that they are seeking release from their own limitations or constraints.
The second verse provides a bit more insight into the singer's mindset, describing themselves as an "angel in disguise." This line is open to interpretation, but it could mean that they see themselves as a guide, as someone who can help others see things in a new way. The line "you don't see the things that I see" suggests that the singer has a unique perspective on the world, one that they want to share.
Overall, the song is an uplifting anthem about the power of taking chances and embracing new experiences. The lyrics encourage listeners to spread their wings and fly, to trust in the guidance of the singer and to allow themselves to see the world from a new perspective.

@toshman8591
I used to listen this song at clubs in Tokyo back in 2002. I’m almost 40 years old and still love this song… those were the days.
40近いのオッサンになった今でも時々聴きたくなる良曲。良いものは時代を越えて記憶に残るとはこのこと

当時18歳、図体もデカく大人びていた（とはいえ今から思えばクッソガキ面）自分、ATOMもCODEも入れず、IDチェックの緩かったVelfarreに1/2位の確率で入れて、六本木、クラブ、大人の空間、WoooHoooooo！！みたいな気分でエレベーターで降りて、ダンスフロアで爆音でこれが掛かっててもう・・・・・ 色々思い出して泣きそうになる。今夜は1人で死ぬまで酒飲んでこの曲を聴くことに決めた。
@DJekkun
これがVelfarreの21時台にかかると、超大盛り上がり！！
酒飲み切ってダッシュでフロアに向かった
あの感動はもう味合えないのは残念
あと、よくエンディングでかかってたMicro Tools - La Triomphe de L'amourの曲は海外輸入した
感動系のLexicon 4 - Reach Meは本当に手に入らなくて、どう手に入れようと悩んだけど諦めた思い出
