    A formidable tenure. Getting edited by Jayson is like having a dislocated shoulder clicked back into the joint.

    Leaving the album-review editing game after next week at , probably for good this time, and here is my mini-valedictory speech. Music writers: Your weapon is not knowledge. Your weapon is prose. Thank you!!

    Thanks also to for putting me on to the first batch of Bandcamp Mixes, which starts with a 9-minute Madonna mix and keeps getting better. The closer is an MOR 90s ballad; Moulton adds a bassline, doubles the runtime and it turns to gold

    The Whispers mix on here has become my lockdown salve, just outrageously joyful, sprawling, uplifting, and as with all Moulton’s work a beautiful vision of what the original could have been if commercial concerns didn’t exist

    An honour to interview disco legend Tom Moulton about one of our favourite subjects: the enduring brilliance of Tom Moulton. At 80, he is still hilarious and still knocking out classics

    When I was 10 my mum blacklisted my most wanted album, Original Pirate Material, causing me to perish. The near-stranger who stepped in to save me is still one of the puzzles of my life. I wrote about it, and her, here

    Also contributed to Pitchfork’s ensemble dive into our feelings... read on for lots of heartwarming self-reflection and one overwrought theory about Jasss’s Turbo Olé

    For the Pitchfork rundown I have written about Fiona Apple’s I Want You to Love Me, which admittedly is also good

    It brings me no pleasure to announce that the best songs of 2020 are Tom Moulton’s unvaulted disco edits
