DESCRIPTION:
2x12" Deep House / House - Many credit New Jersey's Todd Edwards and pivotal in forging the early sound of UKG. His shoulder-dropped, shuffled house beats and accentuated and pitched up vocal cuts fast became adopted and exaggerated by London and Birmingham's embryonic 2step producers as the cross pollination of American dance music and UK attitude bloomed in the late 90s and early millennium. Since then the producer has enjoyed plenty of admiration on this side of the pond, with some legendary DJ performances much later on in his career; and has gone onto collaborate with Daft Punk not to mention accumulating countless hordes of young garage and house heads who regard him with an almost mystic degree of reverence.
Here Defected present a collection of Todd's best remixes and productions, housed on separate discs or in boosted 2xCD format. Includes his remixes of Indo, Moloko, St Germain, Robin S and more plus his own releases "Saved My Life", "Shut The Door", "Main Vibe" and the two collaborative productions with Daft Punk: "Face to Face" and "Fragments of Time".
A producer whose style and sound are instantly recognizable; his inspiration across genre camps and club cultures is far reaching and widely acknowledged. A truly unique enigma with a big character to back it up, it's a beauty to have all these amazing Todd Edwards tracks in one complete package. Most recommended.

Last FM Information on Todd Edwards
Please note the information is done on a artist keyword match and data is provided by LastFM.
Todd Edward Imperatrice, more known as Todd Edwards is a house and UK Garage producer born in New Jersey in 1972. His style of music is characterized by a collage of micro-samples over swung UK garage beats and percussion, with groovy, disco-inspired bass lines. He started his career off around 1992, first releasing some tracks under the alias The Todd Edwards Project. He was influenced by several people, especially Mark Kinchen, or MK, whose remixes had vocal reconstructions and chops, like his remix of The Nightcrawlers' "Push The Feeling On".
He is considered one of the godfathers of UK garage and directly inspired many other UK garage musicians. He is also a committed Christian and considers God as one of his main sources of inspiration. Furthermore, he also hides religious lyrics or phrases in some of his songs or remixes. He has been an example and inspiration for a lot of artists, from MJ Cole and Burial, to Daft Punk and Akufen.
Todd's discography spans hundreds of songs and remixes, including remixes for Wildchild, St Germain, Nicole J McCloud, Mad Moses, Robin S., Dimitri From Paris, and Benjamin Diamond.
HIs releases were played to various enthusiast groups. Some of his albums and mixes include Prima Edizione, the Full On series, New Trends Sounds series, and Odyssey.
In 2013, he and Daft Punk would collaborate and release a song, Fragments of Time, on Daft Punk's album Random Access Memories. This would earn him a Grammy along with Daft Punk, because of the album winning Album Of The Year in 2014.
In May of 2021, record label Defected Records announced that they would be releasing much of Todd's tracks on streaming services, including some tracks from Prima Edizione, and other EPs and singles, through one of their sub-labels, 4 To The Floor Records. These include club hits like Shut The Door, Saved My Life and Wishing I Were Home.
Even in 2022, Todd continues to produce and remix. Read more on Last.fm. User-contributed text is available under the Creative Commons By-SA License; additional terms may apply.
