Dj Ralf
Antonio Ferrari (September the 20th, 1957), commonly known as Dj Ralf is an Italian Disc Jockey, music producer and founder of LaTerra, an independent music label. He was born in a small Italian town called Bastia Umbra and was renamed Ralf early on by his friends and parents. After working in small discos of his province (Perugia), he landed at the Cocoricò where he is still resident DJ on the first and third Saturdays every month.
In addition to the Cocoricò he has worked and still works in a variety of clubs in Italy or abroad. He regularly collaborates with the organization of the "Folies de Pigalle" on the first and third Sundays every month, with "Colazione da Tiffany" and since 1994 he has been joining regularly the Made in Italy Ibiza. In 2001 he was regular guest at the Ministry of Sound in London during the party called "Rulin'".
He wrote his own column, called "Touch and Go" for the magazine Discoid where he reviewed new releases on 12 inches, experiences, opinions and told his adventures. However the publications of this review are currently suspended (as of August 2006).
During the Milan fashion week he can be found at the decks of the fashion parade of DSquared2, as the stylists Dean & Dan are really enthusiastic about his knowledge of music.
In 2003 an episode of director Alberto D'Onofrio's series of documentaries, "DJ's Trip", broadcast by Cult Network (Sky), was devoted to him, which explored his personality both as a man and a professional in the world of music.
In 2006 he issued his first disc, which he realized with his friend and dj Alex Neri, a single titled "I've done it". This is the occasion on which he founded his own indie which he named "LATERRA".
In 2007, from the 10th of July to the 11th of September he stands at his own party at the Privilege club(Ibiza). The party's name is "Alma" and its sound is organized by him personally. In this party he plays with some of the best internationally known djs, among these are Steve Bug, Ellen Allien, Mathew Jonson, Timo Maas and many others.
