Bio:

Prodigious Glaswegian DJ/Producer Terry Whyte unleashed his musical talents back in 2007 when he played at the highly esteemed club night 'Sleaze', in one of Scotland's hottest underground clubs; Club 69. It was in the same venue that Terry launched his own brand 'Optik', hosting gigs with local talent and up and coming artists. Massive respect was quickly gained on the Techno scene by consistently filling the club with dedicated followers and booking big name headliners: Gary Beck, Psyk, Harvey Mckay, Hans Bouffmhyre and Kanio. Various venues have since played host to Terry's talent: Soundhaus, The Courtyard, numerous secret warehouse parties and of course; Scotland's notorious superclub; The Arches. Along the way, he has played alongside globally recognised artists: Silicone Soul, Paul Ritch, Perc, Mathias Tanzmann and Alex Smoke to name a few. Terry soon made the natural progression into music production in 2008 and 6 short months later his debut track had been snapped up by the mighty BCR Boys label 'Backwater Community Recordings'. This was swiftly followed by several more releases and a place in the number one slot in the download charts, proving the popularity of his unique sound. Terry has since furthered his knowledge of sound technology by studying audio engineering and, armed with his rolling bass-driven grooves, his presence on the scene is now stronger than ever. Having recently released an EP on Nihil Young's 'Ready 2 Rock' label, which boasts names like Laurent Garnier, Umek, Julian Jeweil and Maetrik, other renowned labels have began to take note of this rising star. Italy's 'Divided' and Germany's 'Der Hut' have recently signed Terry's latest sounds and with the launch of his own 'Creepy Finger Records' imprint with DJ friend Nino Blink and the promise of a plethora of new releases, the future is looking very bright for this exceptional artist.
