Beloved by fans of house and garage on both sides of the Atlantic Todd 'The God' Edwards is established as one of the dons of the 2-step scene which swept the UK in the late 90's and early 00's. In this mix dj Retrend pieces together 25 Edwards classics both old and new. Whilst some tracks i.e. remixes for Daft Punk & the Klaxons are aimed solely at the dancefloor others explore more ambiguous territory as Edwards punctuates his beats with thinly vieled religious messages ('Saved my Life', 'Sweet Jesus' etc). Edwards' own Christian faith is well known, hence nicknames 'The Messanger' and 'The God' (though avid fans suggest this is solely in tribute to his production skills) though how he squares Christian sobriety with his popularity amongst hedonistic clubbers is anyones guess.
Look out for taught melodies, and exceptional percussion work from a true legend. props to Retrend for putting together this mix too...it's a lot!
