DJ Sprinkles is the deep house alias of Terre Thaemlitz, multimedia artist, writer and educator. Her work combines a critical look at identity politics - including gender, sexuality, class, linguistics, ethnicity and race - with an ongoing analysis of the socio-economics of commercial media production. Sprinkles’ uttermost respect for house music’s roots is embodied in her brilliant sets and manifests itself in “Midtown 120 Blues”, the deep house album that gives the ultimate answer to the question of “what is house?”, reminding us of the true circumstances of its birth.
