DERRICK CARTER AT FUEL

 

Tuesday June 16, 2009

DERRICK CARTER

Back by popular demand, Home Town Hero, DJ Derrick Carter featuring Sessions Tuesdays weekly resident DJ Hiroki. FREE SHOW! Space is limited, early arrival strongly suggested!

DERRICK CARTER BIOGRAPHY
From www.mostwanteddjs.com

A master of 90's Chicago House music, Derrick Carter started disco DJing since he was a kid. His first single coming out of college was ?Love Me Right? in 1987, followed by SYMBOLS AND INSTRUMENTS? in 1989 which assured him a spot in the Chicago underground. His heart may be in House, but his essence is always searching for new beats to mix into future sets. Co-founder of one of the best House labels around, Classic, it unites the sound of the original Chicago Deep/Power House with that British psychedelic. In the British magazine Mixmag, editor Dom Phillips writes:

Carter is a DJ. He knows how to party, and most importantly, why people party, why people go to clubs. He understands perfectly how to lead a dancefloor towards those comic disco moments.- [the juxtaposition of gay abandon and musical spirituality the scene is based upon.] He does so creatively, without resorting to the obvious classics or big tunes, the well worn routes to euphoria.

Dom Phillips- Editor, Mixmag UK



Derrick Carter Biography
Born and raised in the western suburbs, Carter was into music from a young age, but during his teens Chicago's house scene sucked him in for good.Before long Carter became a strong presence in the city's underground dancescene. "When I got my driver's license at 16 my sneak ability was validated," he laughs. "I was a fierce bedroom jock for a long time. Afteryou mix for the love of it for six or seven years, you get it pretty tight and you can take it on the road." He got by working at dance-music specialty stores like Gramaphone and gigging at parties. Later he landed regular DJ stints at Shelter, Foxy's, and Smart Bar. Though he doesn't spin much locally anymore, when he does, he attracts large crowds. His sets are rooted in house, but he freely travels outside club tastes, seamlessly incorporating old-school disco, soul, jazz, and whatever else catches his fancy. Most of the time he works in Europe, where he's become a major celebrity among dance-music aficionados. And the money's a hell of a lot better there. "It's hard not to laugh on the occasions when you'll make 20 times what you make in Chicago on a Saturday night, but there are also times when you do it just for the fun, like at home. So many people come up to me and say, 'Man, I had the worst day. My girlfriend left me, I locked my keys in my car, but you turned me for two hours, and that made me able to get up in the morning.' That's the best thing going." In 1988 Carter, fellow DJ Mark Farina, and friend Chris Nazuka released an EP as the group Symbols and Instruments. The record had a strong influence on the burgeoning ambient techno movement in England. While it wasn't a commercial success, it established Carter as an international figure in the dance-music underground. Since then he's been involved with a number of recording projects, firstly his solo project Sound Patrol under whom he released his first album 'Sweetened -No Lemon' which exuded a soulfulness and low-key grittiness that resonated beyond the infectious grooves and made a departure from the machine-like quality of the dance music fare of the time. Since then the pioneering, innovative tracks and consequent critical acclaim have marked Derrick out as one of the most important players in dance music. Most notably through his more recent releases on Classic. As co-owner and close friend of the company his musical and conceptual input has resulted in Classic becoming one of the leaders in the world of deep house. His first release was as Rednail with 'I Think of You', followed by 'Nu Pschidt' and 'Hope' under his own name. Nü Pschidt combined woven scatting with sleepy minimal beats on 'Dreaming Again' and skilfully cast his own low, sexy drawl over his trademark Carter grooves to form 'Boompty Boomp Theme', described by acid house legend Andy Weatherall as 'the greatest house record of the year, if not the next two years.' Over the last couple of years Derrick has been releasing some of his greatest work to date. From the timeless sounding release 'A Hope (Over U)', to the dancefloor smash "Untershrift EP", through the unique 'Mo' Pschidt EP' Derrick and Classic are most definitely on a roll. His eagerly awaited artist album "Square-dancing In A Roundhouse" is due for release on Classic in the Autumn of 2002, accompanied by a new single "Where U At?". Derrick has also recently remixed the top ten smash Superman Lovers "Starlight", Angry Mexican DJ "I Like It Funky" and Greens Keepers "Should I Sing Like This?".

This man has become Legendary in our time and he doesn't seem to ready to stop anytime soon. His remix work for Destiny's Child,Jon B,Ce Ce Peniston,Daft Punk,R&B Singer Myron, Mr K-Alexi,Stacy Kidd, Joey Beltram, Green Velvet, Armando, Ron Trent and Steve Poindexter just to name a few have made its way into all the big jocks boxes, many of which remain there to this day. Over the years, Paul has been releasing singles which all have made it to many Countries billboard's top 50 and higher. His latest releases World Feel It and Everybody Go Crazy are blowing up world wide and keeping paul in the game for sure. He's a hit making machine say's Yello's Bob Sinclair and He's shown so many artists the way. Much respect to everything that Paul Johnson has done and is going to do for house music....
