Odyssey - A Musical Adventure

(5 out of 5 stars)

"Odyssey by Todd Edwards is a musical triumph in the dance/club music genre and takes House music to a whole new level. Using his innovative technique of 'hyper-sampling' (i.e. taking samples and cutting them into hundreds of pieces, and then, reassembling the sounds into a musical collage or mosaic), Todd has created, in my opinion, a ground-breaking work.



Odyssey starts its musical adventure with 'like a fire', a hard charging, funk inflected work that will keep the kidz glued and groovin' on the dance floor or help you work up a good sweat on a treadmill. 'far away', the first single released before the album release, won best song for the 13th Annual Billboard Songwriters Contest in the category of Dance. Other tracks of note include: the 70's retro flavored - 'show the way', the electronic sounding - 'agony', and the atmospheric and techno - 'my faith'.



DJ's will find that Odyssey is a must have for their music library.
