For 26 years as a dj, Todd Perrine has had a love for music of any genre. Whether it be Disco, Punk, Classic Rock, Hip Hop, or House ...he is all about enjoying the music. Living in Toledo,OH for most of his life has given him the opportunity to witness the evolution of House Music over the years from it's early beginnings to the Worldwide sound it is now. Today Todd Perrine lives, breathes, and eats the music he has grown so much to love.
Whether djing in his basement, at a bar for 10 people or at an event for 100'000 people...Todd is a dj at heart that simply enjoys it all. "I love becoming one with my music and sending out such a vibe that it has the ability to touch one's soul". In the early days he was content listening to mixtapes, collecting vinyl, and djing at friends houses to get some practice in. "Everywhere and anywhere I could get my hands on a set of turntables and a mixer to hone my skills". After 2 years of practice a club opened up called Frankies where he landed a residency at for more than 10 years. Here he met Derrick "Drivetrain" Thompson (Soiree Records Int/Explor Music) and Boomer "Omegaman" Reynolds (+8/Definitive) and together they pioneered the House and Techno scene for Toledo.
It wasn't long before others took notice and he began playing out on a regular basis. With a creative mixing style and an on-point track selection which have taken him to djing gigs across the U.S.A. and Europe. It has earned him an ever-growing booking schedule including numerous residencies in his hometown and past residencies at world reknowned clubs. In 03,05,and 07 Todd Perrine played Detroit's Electronic Music Festival and in 00,01, and 07 played the Winter Music Conf. and made it known that he is a staple of the House scene.
Todd Perrine has produced two E.P.s for Soiree Records Int. "Balanced" and "Groove Vital" under the moniker PHConcept with label mate Laura Hardgrove (Indorf) and realesed tracks on CD compilations from the Soiree label...also has a running MIX series called Landcruisin' which right now vol 8 is forthcoming. Todd took the last 10yrs off from production to be the best Dad he could be for his new kids and is getting back in the studio with partner Nate Mattimoe (together they are the DIAZ BROS.) for a forthcoming track coming out on Planet East Music.... and look for future releases on Bang Tech 12 Recordings and others. |
