"Street Sense" - Glenn Rivera ReStructure Mix - The Salsoul Orchestra

• "Street Sense" - Glenn Rivera ReStructure Mix - The Salsoul Orchestra

From 1979 the LP that Tom Moulton produced and mixed with the help of disco conductor Thor Baldursson.

This project fared well with it's conga driven tracks with the magnificent sound of the orchestra's strings and horns creating a sophistication that they are so well known for.

"Street Sense" has always been a track that contained much of the elements of Euro and New York disco. My ReStructure is more of a dub-fest using the percussion and the underlying energy and also parts of the soaring choruses with that positive disco feeling.

"Disco Kicks" - Glenn Rivera ReStructure Mix - Boystown Gang

• "Disco Kicks" - Glenn Rivera ReStructure Mix - Boystown Gang

Bill Motley brought the resurgence of disco to life in 1981 when no one believed it was possible. One of his first being "Ain't No Mountain High Enough"/"Remember Me" Medley from the Boystown Gang's first LP which featured Cynthia Manley on lead vocals.

On his follow up project he broke down the concept with more of a high energy feel - focusing on a few covers from soul to classic easy listening songs to "Disco Kicks" (which was originally recorded by The Original Mass). This track pumped over and over and kept dance floors jumping all over again. It was pure excitement.

I have taken Motley simple production and broke it into many pieces and then placed it together in this ReStructure Mix - it has a new flavor and arrangement.

This one is dedicated to all of the die-hard high energy disco lovers who just can't get enough "kicks"!

"I'd Like To Get Closer" - Glenn Rivera ReStructure Mix - USA-European Connection

• "I'd Like To Get Closer" - Glenn Rivera ReStructure Mix - USA-European Connection

Boris Midney: a disco conductor

He created a style of Euro-disco that moved dance floors into a new phase. It was not always easy for Midney's first release, "Come Into My Heart" on Marlin Records in 1978. Most dance floors had not yet grasped his concept or style - it was the hardcore disco audiophiles who were ready to move forward with his ideas and arrangements.

As his style became a major part of disco music's growth and progression, it now that we consider Midney to be a master in his own compositions and productions. This second project titled USA-European Connection is a blend of Midney's style once again moving into a whole new area with some familiar aspects from past productions. Many of his recording included Beautiful Bend, Caress, Masquerade, Nannette Garcia, Black Russian, Companion and Festival.

I have extracted "I'd Like To Get Closer" from the side one portion of the medley and pieced some of the beautiful segments of strings and percussion elements to recreate a new track altogether.

Dedicated to the hardcore Boris Midney fans who have believed in disco music from the beginning and were not afraid to move with it's unique style.

"Midnight Love Affair" - Glenn Rivera ReStructure Mix - Carol Douglas

• "Midnight Love Affair" - Glenn Rivera ReStructure Mix - Carol Douglas

Carol Douglas released "Midnight Love Affair" in 1976 - arranged and conducted by John Davis and produced by Eddie O'Loughlin. This being her second release following her big hit, "Doctor's Orders".

This was an example of the progression of disco music following the mid-seventies. Layered strings and soft melodies were the formula dance floors clamored for.

This ReStructure Mix is a breakdown of the track with a few added drums and the extracting the male vocal segments.

Dedicated to Ms. Carol Douglas for her part in disco history.

"Risky Changes" - Glenn Rivera ReStructure Mix - Bionic Boogie

Greg Diamond produced projects by Andrea True Connection ("More, More, More" "N.Y. You Got Me Dancing"), Gloria Gaynor and George McCrae using his production and arrangement skills to create a whole new sound of disco music.

In 1977 his production of Bionic Boogie was one of the most exciting in disco history. Using top musicians and a vocal ensemble consisting of Jocelyn Brown, Cissy Houston, Luther Vandross and Gordon Grody this production is a powerhouse.

"Risky Changes" is being ReStructured here using some bongo tracks to pull out more energy from the killer bass line and piano piece looped till the cows come home.

This one goes to to Mr. Diamond who left us with some fantastic music to remember him by.
