Ranked No. 5 in Disco
Walter Gibbons's remix was the first commercially released twelve-inch single, and it invented the job. Everything a remixer does — extend, strip, delay the payoff — is already fully formed here.
Picked by The Waxonia Desk — The Hundred
Walter Gibbons invents the job of remixer on the first commercially released twelve-inch. Extend, strip, delay the payoff — all of it is already here.
Picked by The Waxonia Desk — What the DJs Kept
The first commercially released twelve-inch, which is a format question as much as a musical one. The extended mix changed what a DJ could build over the course of an hour.
