Full On Ferry: Masquerade

Written by Marjan on 28 June 2007 in News
Full On Ferry: Masquerade On 27 October, UDC will host a spectacular event around Ferry Corsten in the Rotterdam Ahoy, with the theme 'Masquerade', referring to the masks Ferry has put aside. After having completely organised mega-events around Carl Cox (three editions) and Armin van Buuren (two episodes) in the legendary Ahoy stadium, UDC will again present a groundbreaking dance event with a top international artist. 

Full-On Ferry is on the one hand an event where the various musical facets of Ferry Corsten can be expressed; trance, techno and electro. On the other, it is a festive reunion of his fellow DJs and producers who, like Ferry, have produced music under a number of aliases. "I want to throw a big party with these artists, with an emphasis on partying. A dance event revolves around the experience of all of those present, not just one person. That's why the co-operation with various other artists in a huge event like this appeals to me."

With no less than seventeen years of studio experience, a double row of golden records on the wall, ten thousands of air miles earned as a DJ and his recent election as the number six DJ on the planet in the DJ Mag Top 100, Ferry Corsten is one of the greatest dance music artists in the world. His hits 'Out Of The Blue' from 1999 (as System F), 'Gouryella' from 1999 (as Gouryella), 'Barber's Adagio For Strings' (Remix for William Orbit) from 1999, 'Punk' from 2001, 'Rock Your Body, Rock' from 2003, 'Fire' from 2006 and 'Beautiful' from 2007 (all recorded under his own name) have made dance floors around the world throb to his beats. Ferry's most recent artist album 'L.E.F.' is a hit everywhere - with the singles 'Fire', 'Junk' and 'Beautiful' – and it was one of the best-selling dance albums in America in 2006. Ferry: "Over the years I've had a lot of club and chart hits under different artist names. But four years ago I decided to release music and perform under my own name Ferry Corsten and to broaden my sound. You could say that I've taken off my various masks. "

Although Ferry Corsten is listed in history books as the most important originator of Dutch trance, he is an artist who is constantly pushing his musical boundaries in order to expand them. During Full-On Ferry, the emphasis will lie on the broad musical spectrum he represents as a DJ and producer. However, the owner of Flashover Recordings and Aleph Recordings labels emphasises that it is the total experience that is vital during this trend-setting event in the Ahoy stadium. The theme 'Masquerade' will be worked out to the smallest details in the decoration, visuals and performance acts. "The mysterious and exciting character of the masquerade party in the Ahoy stadium creates the same adventurous feeling that I experience during my studio work and DJ performances."
