Defected enlist Shermanology, Low Steppa, BKLAVA and MPH to revisit classic tracks from Garage don Todd Edwards.
Defected are proud to revisit the legendary Todd Edwards catalogue with the second instalment of House Masters Remixes, featuring four celebrated modern house and garage artists; Shermanology, Low Steppa, Bklava and MPH. Released in 2021, Todd’s original compilation demonstrated his approach to experimentation in its full glory; his entirely new sound, born from chopped up samples and vocal clips, birthed the UK Garage genre while giving the American-born producer major underground credibility.
Ever since those pioneering releases in the 90s, Todd has continued to inspire artists around the world, artists like Dutch duo Shermanology and their frequent collaborator Conquer Jones, who open up this set of remixes by bringing their hearty mix of UKG, Caribbean and soul influences to ‘Show Me A Sign’. Following that, the highly influential Simma Black label boss Low Steppa takes on the legendary ‘God Will Be There’, before ‘Dancing For Heaven’ gets a bouncy, upbeat remix from South-London genre-defier Bklava. Closing out this stacked release, young garage talent MPH brings an atmospheric feel to ‘Thank You’ before a hard-hitting beat comes down in full force.
Todd Edwards – House Masters Remixes, Pt. 2 will be released via Defected Records on 1st November. Pre order here.
