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 KZfaq, 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.

The most beautiful thing about this video is the fact he had no idea just how much people love his music in the U.K.. I grew up djing garage and it’s mental how even the darkest grime sets still play Todd. I do miss the good old time and envy days in Romford man, I live in seattle now and no dance music scene compares to London in the early 2000s
