With innovative productions, flawless technical skills and an effortless attitude of rocking a crowd, his influence has infiltrated throughout dance music. Although known as one of the key players of Chicago's house music wave in the '90s, Derrick Carter began DJ'ing at the age of nine, spinning disco records at family reunions. Raised in the western suburbs, Derrick was into music very early. During his teens Chicago's house scene sucked him in for and before long he became a strong presence in the city's underground scene. "When I got my driver's license at 16 my sneak ability was validated," he laughs. "I was a serious bedroom jock for a long time. After you 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 worked at dance-music specialty stores Importes. IEtc. Gramaphone, & Baby O’s while gigging at parties, and eventually landing regular DJ stints including residencies at Shelter, Foxy's, and Smart Bar. Derrick's sets are rooted in house, but he freely travels outside club tastes, seamlessly incorporating old-school disco, soul, jazz, R&B, and whatever else catches his fancy.
