My wife was pregnant with our eldest daugther at the time. When we used to play this song she used to kick and move around inside her belly when we used to play this song! We used to think she wass dancing!
Dennis Ferrer is an artist many times featured on deep house - house music compilation mix albums by South African DJ's to my memory, from the 2000's. He was part of the appreciation and love I developed for Deep House. This tune was the epitome of this love I have. Still playable to this day and beyond. RESPECT BRO!!!!
Incredible. I still remember the day Hey Hey was released and what it did to the scene. 2009 was the year of Hey Hey and Leave the World Behind. Period.
as a dj/musician, it is no doubt one of the best records ever made. you can play it in any set at any time of the day and it will work its magic. few instruments and a vocal, simplicity at its best. long live dennis ferrer👌🤘🙏
One time Sam Burns played this track at 18th St. lounge at his Sunday party in DC and it was my birthday 🥳 it was a really long time ago, but somehow I always remember and cherish that memory because hearing that song really made my night 🎉
Every time I was working on a track I always had my daughter right there with me because I always asked her if she liked this or that and her feedback was always on point, kids will give you their honest feedback on things, valuable insight especially when you're doing music.
Great interview. Dennis Ferrer is a true house music legend. His journey from the Bronx to global stardom is inspiring. The story behind "Hey Hey" is pure gold. It's amazing to see how personal experiences can fuel such iconic tracks. His passion for music is contagious. You can feel his love for the craft in every word. This interview is a must-watch for anyone who appreciates the soul of house music.
Thank you, Denis for saving my life as well! You are one of my favorite DJs ever and have been for a very long time. You have a lot of tracks that I absolutely love and adore and this is definitely one of them. Every time I hear it, it just makes me smile and dance 💃 This track never gets old! I can’t thank you enough for putting it out there for us to enjoy. Your creativity never ceases to amaze me! Please don’t ever stop playing and producing music 🎼 🎵 ❤

Brilliant video, your song has many times allowed me to bring JOY and HAPPINESS not just to me, but to the people on the dance floor, people listening to it via my radio shows, thank you for making an awesome track Dennis Ferrer, with love from South Africa,
I moved to NYC the year this was released and I became a US citizen this last January. This song is part of the soundtrack of my and my husband's lives. Our kids love this track now too. Legendary.
Chicago set is about to be so sick. Thanks Dennis for all the years and sharing. My 1st memories of you and your sets was your energy was off the charts. 🤘 RIP Erick Morillo
I was hoping to hear more about the actual production process but it was cool to hear he was inspired by Carl Craig’s white noise and created on the Juno.
You more famous in South Africa 🇿🇦 than in the States .. the world has no idea how much House music we South Africans consume. They think its only Amapiano nah we doing this for over 25yrs consuming and producing
