About this deal

The video keeps getting removed from YouTube, but whenever it does, someone else uploads it again: jerky cameraphone footage of a man in a homemade T-shirt that reads Jesus Loves UK Garage, DJing at an Essex club in 2003. The crowd in Romford are going insane – the man is Todd Edwards, an American house producer whose rough-edged production style had exerted so much influence on the UK garage scene that he had become known as Todd the God – but the object of their worship looks, as he puts it now, “scared to death”: the smile on his face is weirdly fixed and unmoving, in a way that suggests not enjoyment, but terror. Cover mouth and nose with mask. Loop the elastic straps around your ears and adjust the toggles, if available, so there are no gaps between your face and the mask.

But everything else appears to be going extremely well. There is a “very personal, very intense” documentary in the works, centring around his lost 2006 album Odyssey, a Discovery-inspired exploration of Christianity that, among its other delights, featured Edwards inhaling helium in a bid to sound like Björk. A new deal with Defected Records has resulted not just in a best-of collection, but also in his classic productions appearing on streaming services for the first time. A quarter of a century on, Saved My Life and his remixes of Moloko, St Germain and Sound of One still sound remarkably fresh, perhaps because UK garage has returned to the pop spotlight – you can hear its DNA everywhere from AJ Tracey to Disclosure – but more likely because Edwards hit on a genuinely unique sound in the early 90s, and uniqueness tends not to date. My recent remix for Sonny Fodera. I wanted to include it but I’m always respectful of artists’ release schedules. These Jesus Loves Uk Garage cloth face masks are not designed for medical use, or as personal protective equipment against coronavirus (COVID-19). Fitted and Flat masks should only be worn by people ages 13 and up. Younger children ages 3 and up should wear appropriately sized Kids’ masks. Learn more about these masks. Honestly, I want to see people rejoice in the fact that we can all go to clubs and festivals again but I know that’s exactly what’s going to happen. I would also love to see artists come with innovative ideas. It feels like most music across genres hits the same parameters and few take chances and try something new.A platinum disc for the album is visible on the wall behind him alongside a crucifix. He never felt his religion conflicted with the hedonistic world of clubbing, he says – “To me, the club was the church” – although recently, he’s been having a crisis of faith. “Me and God are seeing other people right now, that’s what I say,” he says. “I just try to practise the good things from Christianity … it’s bittersweet when people come up to you and are like: ‘I became a Christian because of you’ or ‘I love the godliness in your music.’ I feel guilty, almost like I have to confess: sorry, I’m struggling with it.”

It’s not easy to remember, but I think the first 45 record I got was Peter Brown and Betty Wright’s “Dance With Me”, released on Drive Records in 1978.

Being the genius that he is, and calling out others in the process, here are some of Edwards's best clips. The WHO recommends that you clean hands with alcohol-based hand rub or soap and water before putting on a mask.Despite coming from across the pond, Todd Edwards’ music has been recognised as one of the most significant influences on the formation and solidification of UK garage. The signature Todd Edwards production style was born – four-to-the-floor beats with a noticeable swing; vocal samples cut up into tiny fragments and reassembled into what the writer Simon Reynolds memorably called “blissful hiccups”.
