Edward Ward, aka DJ Eddie-Ed discovered his love for music early in life, growing up in the Bronx during hip hop’s infancy. Inspired by legends like Kool Herc and Grandmaster Flash, he developed his craft on Technics turntables, DJing parties and drawing crowds. His love for NYC club sounds and Shep Pettibone’s 98.7 Kiss Mastermixes shaped his style.

While attending SUNY Buffalo, DJ Eddie-Ed launched his first DJ business, performing at campus and community events, and became a Friday night DJ on WRUB radio. In the late ’80s, he embraced house music, frequenting iconic venues like Paradise Garage and Zanzibar, expanding his repertoire to underground house sounds.

As an Air Force DJ, he gained acclaim at McGuire Air Force Base and Fort Dix, winning “Battle of the DJ” contests two years in a row. By the mid-’90s, Edward paused his traveling DJ career to focus on family and church work, honing his production skills as a sound engineer for Bethany Baptist Church.

In 2005, DJ Eddie-Ed revived his career, blending his DJ expertise with production experience. By 2010, his business had evolved into a top-tier entertainment and production company, delivering soulful and afro house mixes with a touch of classics. By 2016, he performed at major venues alongside top DJs and collaborated with artists and producers like Joe Flame, Adam Cruz, and Eddie Nicholas, releasing projects on platforms like Traxsource, iTunes, and Spotify.

Today, in 2024, Edward Ward has expanded his DJ, video, and sound services across the tri-state area. As an Air Force veteran, retired instructional technology administrator, and certified Part 107A Remote Pilot, Edward founded Drone Tech Navigators Academy to introduce young people of color to drone technology.

In his free time, Edward serves his community through his fraternity, Kappa Alpha Psi Fraternity, Inc, and enjoys golf, cycling, kayaking, traveling, and drone photography.

Quotes from DJ Eddie-Ed:

“I love to dance—so when I’m DJing, I picture myself on the dance floor.”

“I always give thanks and praises to GOD for blessing me. Without HIM, this passion would not be possible.”

Peace and God Bless.
