In the Name of Love

Recorded in Brooklyn at Loud House Studios as part of the Todd Terry Project’s 1988 sessions. Todd Terry produced the track himself and built it around his sample-collage house style. Released during the late-1980s New York house boom, the track became one of Todd Terry’s defining early records. It helped establish his reputation for hard-edged, playful, sample-driven club production. The record remains a touchstone of classic New York house and breakbeat-oriented rave culture. Later writers have treated it as a key bridge between underground house, plunderphonic editing, and the wider club sound that followed.
