NYC Based DJ playing AfroTechSoul, Soulful House, Afro House and Minimal Music.

Born with Jazz and Reggae in her ear and Funk in her heart. It’s a logical progression that DJ Zion would evolve into musical landscape artistry. She began her quest of creative journeys at a young age while studying vocals and violin at a New York City Public school in the heart of Hip Hop’s founding backyard, Jamaica, Queens. Her love of dance has inspired her hands behind the wheels of steel to transform her musical soul and self-expression to a whole new level. DJ Zion is a House Music DJ playing AfroTechSoul. A sonic melting pot of Soulful, Afro, Global Soul, Minimal and Tech grooves. NY and NJ based. Playing music on stages large and small actively since 2014.  Founder of Yemoja SOL the internationally acclaimed podcast a musical diary of love and emotion since 2011. This journey spreads the LOVE of house music from a dancer turned DJ. Zion has shared the stage in NY/NJ with such legends as Tony Humphries, Timmy Regisford, ANANE, and Hector Romero. She has graced the stage at home and abroad with countless keepers of the craft Jihad Muhammad, Celeste Alexander, Coflo, Mark Francis, DJ Beloved, Naeem Johnson, Mikki Afflick, and Mark Lewis. She has also performed internationally in London’s Club - Alibi at ESCO and Afro Soulfest 2023 St. Lucia with Ian Friday and Herb Martin and AfroSoulFest 2024 Curacao with DJ Sres, Tyrone Francis, Duane Powell and Steve Maxwell.  

In addition she is a trained dancer, and a High School Culinary Arts Instructor for over 28 years. She has imparted her love of music into her work with children, in collaboration with SunDog Theatre.  She taught Music Appreciation to high school students for 11 years. The program exposed students to Western Classical music, as well as, music of the African Diaspora. The program won numerous grants and was supported by various Arts organizations in the state. 

Her love for house music began when local Harlem DJ’s travelled to the Catskills and spent the summer at “camp” which she attended for seven summers in her youth. When she wasn’t on her skates, there was definitely a wooden dance floor she was on from NYC to London. A chance entry into the famed Garage nightclub at the age of 16 would inspire her to dance and travel the world searching for rhythms and dance floors to groove.

Her metamorphosis from singer, dancer, actor, chef, photographer, to DJ is an evolution of a journey that is predetermined and colorful in it’s voyage. As an underground artist she is well sought after and yearns to move a dance floor near you. For the love of Dance, for the love of House…L.O.V.E.

Right place, right time. It's an old cliché, but it's one that's been the definition of Dennis Ferrer's musical career. Just as the dance music world was heading into the world of afro-centric house, Ferrer was there. And then, when it began to embrace the mix of tech and soul, Ferrer was there again, leading the way with his impeccable productions. As Ferrer goes, it seems, so does electronic music. And, as someone who's never content to do the same thing twice, it's clear that he'll be staying on top for years to come.

Ferrer burst back into the consciousness of most dance music heads with the release of "Sandcastles," (Ibadan) his collaboration with Jerome Sydenham in 2003. But, to his credit, Ferrer didn't simply repeat the formula afterwards. He has continued to push a variety of genres all at once. It's clear that Ferrer isn't content to rest on his laurels: he's too busy dreaming up new ways to shock and delight audiences.

In the mid-90’s, Ferrer was crafting techno records as Morph and then had success in the Afro and gospel house scenes with releases via his Sfere label, an imprint he began alongside Kerri Chandler. But it's this past work that gives his new productions such resonance: unlike many of this house peers, Ferrer's techno experience has given him an edge that you can hear in his recent work.

"Son of Raw," (Ibadan) "Church Lady," (Defected) "Underground Is My Home," (King Street Sounds), "Touched the Sky" (King Street Sounds), “Transitions” (King Street Sounds), “P 2 Da J” (Defected),  “Sinfonia Della Notte” (Strictly Rhythm), “Hey Hey” (Objektivity), “Red Room” (Objektivity), “Underground” Nick Curly – Dennis Ferrer Remix (Defected), to name a few, have all been huge dance floor anthems and all show a different side of the Ferrer personality as well as his impressive range as producer and remixer.

Ferrer has brought his ‘anything goes’ approach to his label, Objektivity.  Celebrating its 8th anniversary in 2014, the imprint has thus far focused itself on vocals, featuring often unlikely turns from indie heroes like Ane Brun and Télépopmusik. Low slung and deep, Objektivity is a cutting-edge label in touch with its time, putting a uniquely American spin on the deep house revival that is currently making waves in Europe. Objektivity is a living, breathing thing - one that's set to drop bombs on the dance floor for years to come.

While Ferrer closes out 2013 with “Mind Ur Step” (Defected), “Mind Ur Dub” (Objektivity) and a remix of Coyu - “Salvation” (Noir Music), the best is yet to come. With a deep knowledge of the past and a constant push for the future, Ferrer remains one of the true greats of house music - a leader and innovator whose enjoying the buzz around him but keeping on pushing the limits. Stay tuned.
