DESCRIPTION:
Pete Heller is an English electronic and house music producer. He is recognized in the dance community for his solo work, and his remixes with frequent collaborator Terry Farley. As a duo they have released popular tunes under the names Heller & Farley Project (or Farley & Heller), Fire Island plus The Look and Feel. In 1996, they released "Ultra Flava," a #3 hit on the US Billboard Hot Dance Music/Club Play chart. The track also peaked at #22 in the UK Singles Chart.

On his own, Heller hit #1 on the US Hot Dance Music/Club Play chart with "Big Love" featuring Octahvia, which held the top spot for three weeks and also was ranked by Billboard as the #1 dance song of 1999. The same track peaked at #12 in the UK.

In addition, Heller remixed The Chemical Brothers' 2002 release, "Star Guitar", which reached #8 in the UK chart. In 2004, Heller launched his own record label, Phela Recordings, as a platform for his own productions and collaborations with other artists. He has five siblings (Simon, Andrew, Judy, Daniel and Vicky). He attended Dulwich College and Manchester University. He has since moved into the web industry, gaining an MA in Digital Media from London Metropolitan University, and an MSc in Web Design and Content Planning from University of Greenwich. Pete is a Prince2 Practioner.

Octahvia, (sometimes credited as Octavia or Octah'via) is a female singer from New York City. While she would later have several hits as a featured vocalist for other artists, she is perhaps best known under her own name for the 1986 R&B/dance hit, "2 the Limit."

She would also go on to score a pair of number-ones on the Billboard Hot Dance Club Play chart: as part of the S.O.U.L. S.Y.S.T.E.M. alongside Michelle Visage and Cindy Mizelle when they recorded "It's Gonna Be A Lovely Day" in 1993 and as the featured vocalist on José Nunez's 1998 hit "In My Life" (and the number nine follow up "Hold On" in 1999).
