Future Sound R & R Records

1980s-1990s house label from Chicago, Illinois. The famous Future Sound imprint was created by legendary DJ, Terry "Housemaster" Baldwin (of Lincoln Boys Fame) in 1987, at the peak of the Chicago Acid House explosion. The inspiration for the label was to bring this new underground dance sound to the public on a major label scale, after radio stations had refused to air the music. The challenge was met and Future Sound still flourishes today, together with its sister label, R & R Records. It has introduced acts such as Paris Grey and Neal Howard to the world, and involved the work of such acclaimed artists as Derrick May, Mike "Hitman" Wilson, DJ Pierre and Ron Hardy. Always expect the unexpected from Terry Baldwin and Future Sound Records - dedicated to the true music lover!
