Orka is a musician, singer songwriter and teacher whose passion lies in spiritual development, ritual artistry and ceremonies. 
In her journey for the past 14 years, Orka has explored the ceremonial, spiritual and healing aspects of the concept of Singing Circles. Her ground breaking project, 'Orot', established together with Uria Tsur, has taken this work to another level.
 
Orka’s interest in interactive work with the audience lead her to explore ways of bringing these qualities of healing and deep spiritual engagement to a full band on-stage performance, thus creating her project “Forestt”.
This project, based on Orka’s writing and composing, embodies the joint vision Orka and her band mates had - to create a world of sounds that generates heart opening and mind altering experiences, just like singing circles do.  
 
Orka has worked with hundreds of women, both in her voice workshops, and in the 'Medicine Women's Choir' that she established, where she aims at inspiring the voice of the 'new feminine' to open up, take the lead and share both strength and vulnerability.
 
After many years of performing internationally with these projects, topping the charts in Israel, giving a TedX talk and taking an active role as a woman leader in her community, Orka is now ready to launch her  SOLO project on which she worked as the world changed.
 
Orka is 39 years young, a mother of toddler twins, based in Israel, and in love with life!

I have been an all vinyl dj in Miami since the early 2000's. I don't produce so it's kind of hard for me to get my name out there. I have tried my hardest to put up a quality selection of eclectic mixes on my page. Raw mixing, no sync buttons, all original vinyl with no reissues. Please help me out and repost/share.  I'm so grateful for you to even listen.  Thank you!

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.
