Todd Terry

Artist ∙ Dance

Todd Terry is one of house music's most innovative, successful, and prolific producers. He defined New York house during the 1980s, a varied sampladelic smorgasbord with plenty of hip-hop attitude and sampling piracy. This free-wheeling, breakbeat-driven sound became a major influence on U.K. rave and hardcore, and his collaborations with rappers, particularly the Jungle Brothers on 1988's "I'll House You," popularized hip-house outside of Chicago. He achieved his biggest mainstream success with his ubiquitous 1995 remix of Everything But the Girl's "Missing." Terry scored hits with garage house anthems like 1997's "Something Goin' On," then unexpectedly shifted from song-oriented material to dark drum'n'bass with 1999's Resolutions. He's remained as productive as ever well into the 21st century, continually issuing house tracks, including collaborations with artists such as Kevin Saunderson and Robin S., and occasionally venturing into hip-hop and electro. He compiled career highlights on a series of 2024 Retrospective collections.
