If you like garage music or indeed the producer Todd Edwards, then this really is the dream team collaboration. Todd Edwads is a legendary producer from New Jersey who has massively influenced the garage scene in the UK from the early nineties with DJ EZ being one of the main DJ's who showcased his music here is the UK. I purchased this CD a few years ago from Amazon and it still gets a spin occasionally taking me back to my raving days in my youth. The 1st CD consists of tunes DJ EZ has picked which were all influential at that time( CD released 2003) including his legendary intro's which are normally played only at clubs. It also fetures tracks by the legend that is MJ Cole with Talkbox, an absolute belter. However my favourite from CD 1 has to be Zack Toms - Bring Me Down(Stanton Warriors Mix) which has a sweet vocal and then drops into a ripping ever so catchy bass line. Moving onto the second CD as mixed by Todd Edwards, my favourite, you simply can't go wrong. Track after track is pure bliss and will have you nodding your head from beginning to end. My personal favourite tracks include 1000 years From Today, which I've seen going for several hundered pounds on ebay. Another belter is Walk Away by Hakan Libdo, words simply cannot describe the pleasure of hearing this tune cranked up as is one of Todd's finest ever and most popular productions Shut The Door. I must also mention Todd Edwards's sublime mix of Moloko's Pleasureseeker which constantly gets rewound when played. An absolute essential purchase for dance and garage music lovers alike.
