Rafi Jerez Presents: An Evening Of Fire And Dust
In shadows of dusk, two strangers found,
Amidst beautiful melodies, on sacred ground.
He held her gently, a tender refrain,
Her neck, his canvas, where love would reign.
From behind, he kissed, a secret delight,
As music evolved, their hearts took flight.
Lost in the rhythm, they swayed in time,
Hand in hand, fingers intertwined.
Emotions crescendo, like stars in the sky,
Invisible threads, their souls would tie.
The spotlight found them, a radiant gleam,
In their embrace, they forged a new reality.
Worlds around them disappeared,
In this dance of love, their hearts erupted.
Two separate lives converged under the moon's tender glow,
Under one embrace, both of their breathes became whole.
Written and Performed by Rafi Jerez. -

ABOUT LIBERE:
The Dutch talented, newcomer in producing lives in Amersfoort. He draws his inspiration from artists such as Cid Inc, Yotto, Jaap Ligthart, Nick Warren, Hernan Cattaneo and Maurits Colijn. Influenced in his youth by soul, he is promising plenty of deep, melodic arrangements to add to his record label “Libertas”
It took him 20 years to produce his first track. Being active as underground techno DJ he did not really think about producing. But like so many things, Corona changed this. So he teamed up with Dutch producing veterans Madman J and Marc Volt and started producing
He still feels privileged when people ask him to host or participate in dance events. That’s when he can contribute to the perfect vibe for people to relax, dance and connect. He played (and still does) techno for the biggest part of his career. This was recently (2018) broadened by Progressive House, in which he is producing a series of mixes.
Besides performing as a DJ, he recently started producing his own Progressive House tracks under the Libertas label. His tracks are available on Spotify, Beatport and Apple Music. -
