Spencer's GIFs: Todd Edwards

Santos hosts a weekly dance shindig in its basement party room, with a wide range of spinners supplying the soundtrack. Tonight's headliner, New Jersey's Todd Edwards, is one of house music's most influential producers of all time; without the innovative maestro's sampling groundwork, the skipping, syncopated beats and cut-up, pitch-shifted vocals of U.K. garage might never have developed in the way they did. Palms Out Sounds' LOL Boys and Fatherhood (the pairing of Michael Magnan and Physical Therapy) play as well.
