Derrick Carter is a Chicago house legend known for joyful, funky, disco-soaked sets that helped define the city’s second wave of house in the 1990s. He grew up in Chicago’s suburbs, started DJing as a kid, and went on to become one of the genre’s most respected selectors, with a style rooted in house but always open to soul, jazz, disco, and raw club energy. Beyond DJing, he is also a key producer and label figure, with ties to projects like Classic Recordings and a long-running reputation as one of the most technically gifted and personality-filled DJs in dance music.
