Happy 71st Birthday Tom Moulton! #DJCulture
There would be no DJ culture without Tom Moulton. The 12”, the “disco breakdown,” and the remix all originated with the former model turned record executive who never DJ’d a day in his life. If you were dancing in the 70s, chances are it was “A Tom Moulton Mix” that got your ass on the floor. Grace Jones, Diana Ross, Ashford & Simpson, the O’Jays,...

Scott Walker: 30 Century Man
Even if you’re not a fan of epic art rock, you should check out Scott Walker: 30 Century Man, a biopic by Stephen Kijak about the enigmatic, reclusive singer from Ohio who started out in a ’60s pop band playing L.A.’s Whisky-a-Go Go, became a huge influence on British Pop and post-rock, and ultimately one of the most out-there musicians anywhere.
I met Stephen years ago at a...
