House and Garage producer/remixer, DJ, occasionally singer and Grammy winner from Bloomfield, New Jersey (US) (born December 9, 1972).
Edwards music has been recognized as a major influence on the nascent UK Garage genre in the United Kingdom in the mid 1990s. He became known for his intensive sampling and remixing technique that involves cross-hatching brief snatches of vocals into a melodic-percussive honeycomb of blissful hiccups as described by critic . Used both on his solo albums and on his remixes for other artists, this complex vocal sampling technique in some cases renders the original track almost unrecognizable.
With remixes numbering in the hundreds, some of the artists Edwards has remixed include Wildchild, St. Germain, Benjamin Diamond, Justice, Klaxons and Dimitri From Paris. Edwards co-produced and performed vocals on the Daft Punk song Face to Face from the album and he worked again with them, co-writing, co-producing and contributing vocals to the song, Fragments Of Time from their 2013 album , for which he won a Grammy.
