ReStructure Mix Update (3/24/25):”Whirlpool” – Glenn Rivera ReStructure Mix – Edwin Starr

ReStructure Mix Update (3/24/25):”Whirlpool” – Glenn Rivera ReStructure Mix – Edwin Starr

Edwin Starr is a soul/disco singer who began his recording career in 1968. His voice is one that is recognizable for its power and emotion and he gives his own “soul” in each song. “Whirlpool” is a single from his 1980 project “Stronger Than You Think I Am” - produced by Edwin. The track is a teasing number of an attraction and the pulasting effect it has on emotion. Outlined as going round in circles due to the outcome of a dramatic outcome. The production is in the 70’s tradition complete with horns and an opportunity for Edwin to tell his story again with the extent of his masterful voice.

I have taken the 12” version of “Whirlpool” and devised a new version for this ReStructure Mix. Shaving off the intro titled “Get Up” and making “Whirlpool” the center of attention here. Layering gives off pieces of a new arrangement which allows a few breaks along the way.

ReStructure Mix Update (3/23/25):”I Cry For You” – Glenn Rivera ReStructure Mix – Bobby O

ReStructure Mix Update (3/23/25):”I Cry For You” – Glenn Rivera ReStructure Mix – Bobby O

Bobby O is Bobby Orlando - a dance music producer who began in the late 70’s and covered the 80’s with his unique style of music. “I Cry For You” is a single from his first project titled “Freedom In An Unfree World” from 1983. This mini street-opera is one of the tracks of that year which combined the hatching sound of high energy music with the drama of disco. The lead female vocal is fabulous as she croons of being left alone with perhaps a child and yet her suitor is trying to overcome his own masculine identity. The full on electronic arrangement makes worthwhile of orchestral strikes outlining this dance classic.

I have taken the original 12” version of “I Cry For You” and re-staged this melo-drama into a new ReStructure Mix. The bass sequencers are used in looping mode to create an underground feel and the exit is again . . . dramatic!

ReStructure Mix Update (3/22/25):”I Can See Clearly” – Glenn Rivera ReStructure Mix – Debbie Harry

ReStructure Mix Update (3/22/25):”I Can See Clearly” – Glenn Rivera ReStructure Mix – Debbie Harry

Debbie Harry is a 70’s, 80’s and 90’s icon. She created her own aura and sound which still rings out in her music today. “I Can See Clearly” is her 1993 single from her project titled “Debravation” - produced by Mr. Arthur Baker. This piece has Debbie’s iconic lulling and sensual delivery which outline an awakening from a connection which had become blurry with lies and inconsistencies. Eventually she pleads to return before the incident and plays out the heartbreak with a mystic. It is a touch of the “rave” scene in this dance version which gives sharp jabs of hardcore dance floor techno influence.

I have taken all of the 12” versions of “I Can See Clearly” and tamed the original remixes for the ReStructure Mix. I cut that deep house-like bass line in pieces and placed the essence of the song over it. A few new breaks and a new breakdown are also added.
