	Tom Moulton: A Tom Moulton Mix: Pitchfork Record Review (Site not responding. Last check: )
		As the unofficial inventor of the disco 12", he was responsible for converting trifling club hits into epic swells of percussive bliss, and his invention of the "disco break" means that his work-- more than nearly any other disco producer's-- acted as the fundament for hip-hop, new wave, and house.
		Moulton's mixes represent the sound of disco as it was transmitted through DJs and samplists to the modern day: pop vocals spun into never-ending networks of quivering funk.
		The elementary structure of your average Moulton mix will therefore be familiar to anyone with a strobe light, but the complexity and elegance is nearly overwhelming throughout Soul Jazz's two-disc set.
