Eric Prydz is a Swedish electronic music producer who first gained international attention in 2004 with 'Call On Me,' a track built around Steve Winwood's vocals. The song's success was complicated by a legal dispute over an unauthorized sample from Winwood's 'Valerie,' which followed Prydz for some time.
His work includes tracks like 'Niton (The Reason)' and 'Proper Education,' the latter being a rework of Pink Floyd's 'Another Brick in the Wall.' He's also released material under the Pryda alias, with albums like 'Eric Prydz Presents Pryda' in 2006 and 'Pryda 10' in 2015.
While primarily working solo, Prydz has collaborated with other producers including Rob Swire on 'Breathe' and Steve Winwood on his breakthrough hit. His music tends toward progressive house and techno, though he's experimented across electronic styles without settling into one formula.
