Influential grime producer Rodney Pryce, better known as Terror Danjah, died yesterday, February 11, a label representative has confirmed. Beloved for his tactile beats and cartoonish, neon-lined flourishes, the East Londoner was a leading producer of his generation and a grime lynchpin, releasing on Hyperdub and Planet Mu and through his own label, Hardrive. No age or cause of death were immediately available.

Veteran grime producer, co-founder of Hardrive Records.

Terror Danjah isn't a household name, he's not as well known as Wiley or Dizzee Rascal, but he's considered by the grime cognoscenti to be the best grime producer ever. Originally part of the Nasty Crew and then Aftershock, Terror has released countless 12″s and remixes as well as several mixtapes. Read more on Last.fm.
