Todd Edwards Historic 1st UK Show Romford, 2003
This is a clip from Todd Edwards legendary performance in the UK for the first time live at 4by4, Time & Envy, in Romford, United Kingdom. This performance, specifically this exact moment and track (todd edwards- wishing i were home), has gone down as one of the most iconic performances of house and UK garage.
This clip means a lot to me, whether its the beauty of the track itself, or the crowd and their reactions, it shows the enormous power music can have on human beings. People of all backgrounds, gathered in one place for one reason only, to enjoy life and to listen to music. Not only is it a profound moment in house music, but it is a wonderful moment in history. We take moments like this for granted, and that's why when i saw this clip was deleted from CZcams, i felt like i needed to reupload it for people to enjoy, and be able to visit this moment in time.
I DO NOT OWN THIS FOOTAGE AND AM ONLY UPLOADING IT FOR PEOPLE TO ENJOY AND CHERISH.
Hopefully we all experience moments like these in the future.

    It’s insane how ahead of his time Todd was. That first mix sounds like something Sammy Virji could drop today and it would be a hit.

    Ive just been diving into UK Garage but it definitely has a familiar tone because I had an ear for it because of Fifa 2005 featured tracks when I lived in Germany. Anyone know the name of the last track that played in this video?

    It would be packed even on a Wednesday and Thursday night in its day. Also Yates, Hollywoods, Edwards, Secrets would alsi be packed. It's a complete ghost town now, even on a Saturday night. It's not just Romford tho, the younger generation don't seem to go out all that much. Too busy staying in taking photos of themselves for wanky likes on Instagram.
