Derrick Carter is widely acknowledged as one of the best DJs in the world. With innovative productions, flawless technical skills and an effortlessly joyful attitude of rocking a crowd, his influence has infiltrated throughout the spectrum of 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 from a young age; during his teens Chicago's house scene sucked him in for good and before long he became a strong presence in the city's underground
dance scene. '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. 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.'
