"Hold Tight" - Glenn Rivera ReStructure Mix - Gino Soccio


"Hold Tight" - Glenn Rivera ReStructure Mix - Gino Soccio

Gino Soccio is one of the second wave of disco artists to become a major innovator - following in the footsteps of Giorgio Moroder - using technology and band elements to create a a new disco sound. His first LP "Outline" is held as one of the most influential projects of the time - the big disco hits, "Dancer" and "The Visitors" are the proof.

I have taken "Hold Tight" from Soccio's 1981 album "Closer" and have given it a ReStructure Mix to add a new dimension of rhythm and effect-s to the mix. It was never featured as a 12" mix and so the mood was on when I thought of placing a new edit and remix to this bouncy and infectious tune.
