Hey Hey

Dennis Ferrer

Defected

WE SAY

Dennis Ferrer's 'Hey Hey' is one of the biggest original house records of the moment, having racked up over 3.5m YouTube views since it first surfaced. Pete Tong called it "a return to the finest virtues of house music" and also made the Riva Starr remix an Essential New Tune when he premiered it on his BBC Radio 1 show. Originally released on Dennis’ own label Objektivity, the track is now ready to be elevated to crossover success by Defected Records. After across the board plays on Radio 1 and 7 weeks on the 1Xtra playlist, it has just been added to Radio 1's INMWT playlist. This sounds like a big summer record, helped by the familiar vocal of a mystery British pop artist.
