- To the Batmobile Let's Go is the debut album by The Todd Terry Project, an alias of American house producer Todd Terry. Released in November 1988 by Fresh Records, it followed the club success of his singles "Bango" and "Just Wanna Dance"/"Weekend", all of which feature on the album, and profiles a minimal, playful style of house music that is built on sampling and features breakbeats, experimentation with noise and elements of electro, freestyle and hip hop. The musician intended the album to represent the more commercial, Latin-styled side of his work. Produced by Terry alone in his home studio, the record was recorded simultaneously with other projects by the producer under different pseudonyms, as was intended to be one of six albums he released under different aliases in late 1988. On release, To the Batmobile Let's Go drew attention from music critics for its intricate sound, and was named the fifth best album of 1988 by NME. A further single, "The Circus", was released in 1989, while "Weekend" became a UK Top 40 hit in 1995. In 2000, the album was re-released by Sequel Records with bonus material. (en)

- "The beat is all important, dance is the reason. Noise is intricately manipulated, stretched, squeezed, turned upside out and inside down to create one whole textured landscape. Simplicity is key, with only two instruments used, the drum machine and the sampling keyboard." (en)
