ReStructure Mix Update (6/8/16) “Bit By Bit” (Theme from “Fletch” ) – Glenn Rivera ReStructure Mix – Stephanie Mills


ReStructure Mix Update (6/8/16) “Bit By Bit” (Theme from “Fletch” ) – Glenn Rivera ReStructure Mix – Stephanie Mills

Stephanie Mills took dance floors immediately with her 1979 album “What Cha Gonna Do With My Lovin’”. This was a new sound for this vocalist which would present a whole stage in the disco and dance arena. Her ballads and adult contemporary singles from her projects also placed her in many classic love songs which even today are on rotation. “Bit By Bit” is a single from 1985 produced by Harold Faltermeyer and is from the soundtrack of the Chevy Chase comedy “Fletch”. This piece is one of the electronic disco pieces that we had the opportunity to hear Stephanie complement with her soulful and energetic sound. The production follows the success of Harold Faltermeyer’s former soundtrack of “Beverly Hills Cop” and his single “Axel F” – a whole new sound for the 80s pop dance scene.

I have taken the 12” vocal and instrumental to work on this ReStructure Mix which simply plays out with more of the dub sounds and reworking the simple keyboard riffs and slamming kicks. It is a lengthier piece that gives way to more of the excitement and fun of hearing Stephanie deliver a high energy number again.
