House Masters Derrick Carter, Derrick selects those lesser-known records that demonstrate the breadth of his musical ability and depth of his house music heritage. Although hugely influential underground jams like 'Squaredancing In A Roundhouse' and 'Where U At?' may not have been commercial successes, but that's not what Derrick is about -- as Derrick puts it: "I'm shut out of the 'hit making', I'm exclusively about booty shaking", and tracks such as 'The Warrior', 'Tripping Amongst The Stars', 'A Hope (Over U)' are indicative of the groove and innate energy which lie at the heart of the very best Derrick Carter productions.
Included here are no fewer than 15 previously unreleased cuts and edits which previously would only have been found in Derrick's own personal record bag or CD wallet; this is the first time that hidden gems and secret weapons such as the 16 minute funk epic of SoCalled's 'Richi', The Innocent's 'Theme From The Blue Cucaracha', DJ Bang's 'Hallelujah' and his personal "private stock" reinterpretations of Freaks' 'Boiling Point' and 'Telefunky' amongst others have ever seen either the light of day or have been available digitally.
