Called "King of the summer jams" by Mixmag, "one third of the Holy Trinity of Norwegian disco" by Spin Magazine, and one of the 25 DJs That Rule The Earth according to Rolling Stone, Todd Terje has made his name with a string of remixes and re-edits and constant touring.
Dance music and comedy aren't the must obvious bedfellows. But for Norwegian producer, DJ and songwriter Todd Terje (pronounced Terr‐yeah), the two are intrinsically entwined: entitled It's Album Time, Terje's debut album is the culmination of over a decade of DJing.
While its roots are in sophisticated, synth laden nu‐disco, the album is spiked with a sense of silliness, with tracks such as Alfonso Muskedunder and Preben Goes To Acapulco sounding straight out of a 70s detective show.
After previously producing a dub edit of Roxy Music's Love Is The Drug, the album also features a cover of Robert Palmer's Johnny And Mary featuring none other than Bryan Ferry.
It's Album Time is his debut.
