Todd Terry: Royal House: Can You Party? (Idlers Records Import LP Only)

Sean O'Hagan, New Musical Express, 8 October 1988

TERRY IS the 21-year-old enfant terrible of House, a sci-fi producer who has turned the rules of the game on their heads and left a trail of aural destruction in his wake. 1988 has been Todd Terry's year, his independent back-catalogue stretching the boundaries of the modern urban dance beat, his cut up, strung out, energised beats gatecrashing every House party and playing havoc with a jaded nation's heads, hips and hoofers.
