(Unlocked!) Episode 20: The Culturally Minor with Terre Thaemlitz

In this episode Jared speaks with Terre Thaemlitz, a music producer, DJ, writer and public speaker, whose work over three decades offers uncompromising critical examinations of media distribution, queer identity, and non-essentialist transgenderism.Raised in Missouri before moving to New York in the late 1980s, Terre was a resident DJ at storied queer nightclub Sally’s II in the early ‘90s. Since then, Terre has released music, critical writing, and video via her own Comatonse Recordings, as well as independent labels including Germany’s influential Mille Plateaux. Based in Japan since the early 2000s, he also continues to perform and record under the deep house alias DJ Sprinkles, releasing the acclaimed 'Midtown 120 Blues' in 2008.Image courtesy Comatonse Recordings.
