Soul Heaven has undoubtedly established itself
as the UK’s leading Soulful House night,
attracting over 3000 per event. This year

on
to pioneer some of the worlds best DJ’s including
Osunlade, Masters at Work and Blaze.
The Soul Heaven philosophy has been clear
since the beginning; ‘promote only the best
soulful dance music available from DJ’s, producers
and artists across the globe’.
On Saturday 1st July, Ministry of Sound welcomes
Soul Heaven back into the hallowed halls,

Jersey has to offer - rising star DJ/producer
Dennis Ferrer and the legendary Kerri Chandler,
to celebrate the launch of their latest compilation
album -
Soul Heaven Presents Kerri Chandler and Dennis
Ferrer (out on Soul Heaven records).
Regarded by many as the originator of deep
and soulful house, Kerri will take to the
main room to deliver his signature sound of
atmospheric Jersey baselines, ranging from
heavy and heady to playful and quirky. Dennis
Ferrer – Chandler’s protégé, and the man responsible
for one of the biggest and deepest dance records
from the past 5 years – ‘SANDCASTLES’ will
continue the mood, dropping fresh productions
and executing his skilful use of technology.
Representing the UK will be house music pioneer
Phil Asher – a DJ who over the years has remained
true to his style, guaranteed to be
dropping deep and soulful grooves.
The Soulful vibes will continue in the Bar
with Paul Trouble Anderson and Soul Heaven’s
favourite residents Rude Boy Rupert, Neil
Pierce, Aaron Ross and Andy Ward.
If soulful house is your scene then this event
is unmissable. Look out for Album giveaways,
