Todd Terry has more than any other producer, defined New York house during the 1980s. His productions can be descriped as a varied sampladelic smorgasbord blending the sounds of classic disco, the more introspective Chicago sound pioneered earlier in the decade, plus plenty of hip-hop attitude and sampling piracy.
Todd Terry has been responsible for releasing two of the most respected crossover remixes of the house era "I'll House You" by the Jungle Brothers and "Missing" by Everything But the Girl.
Among his fans Todd Terry is known as "Todd the God" (or occasionally, simply "God"). This even though he has often been accused of recycling his own beats and effects (in his production work as well as a DJ) a bit too often.
