VIDEO PREMIERE: DENNIS FERRER’S HOUSE NATION

DJ Mag are bringing you the premiere of Liverpool International Music Festival (LIMF) presents House Nation, a four-part series exploring the global phenomenon of house music through the experiences and sounds of leading producers. It’s all part of seven projects LIMF has commissioned around its theme of ‘re-definition’, showcasing music and movements that have redefined popular music and culture.

You can watch the first part below, as New York’s veteran Dennis Ferrer talks about his musical history and the sounds of house music from his city. Over the next three weeks we’ll be bringing the remaining parts of the series as Reboot (Frankfurt), HECTOR (Guadalajara) and rising luminary Lewis Boardman (Liverpool), give their hometown’s take on house.

The project culminates in a celebration of the genre at Sefton Park Palm House in Liverpool on Friday 22nd July, which will see Yousef, Dennis Ferrer, Reboot, HECTOR and Lewis Boardman all on deck. 

Tickets are now on sale with more information about the event and the entire LIMF programme via their website.
