ReStructure Mix Update (12/6/17) "Jump To The Beat” - Glenn Rivera ReStructure Mix – Stacy Lattisaw




Stacy Lattisaw is a voice you cannot leave out when you remember the 80s and the move to a funky edge in dance music. Her album “Let Me Be Your Angel” from 1980 is one of the introductory moves into an electronic funk arrangement from producer Narada Michael Walden – who had a big disco hit with “I Don’t Want Nobody Else to Dance With You” in 1978. His production in Stacy’s project is the slick sound of the dance floor of the early 80s with the percussion and dedication of disco music. “Jump To The Beat” is the second single from the album and leads the front with an enticing and youthful vocal of Ms. Lattisaw. It was a big dance floor hit for me and has been covered a few times by other artists.

I have taken the album version of “Jump To The Beat” and created a ReStructure Mix which is a continuum of the party. A few areas are touched up with samples from a classic by House of Pain – in the same theme but different time. This one was requested by my brother in-law Vidal Sisneros and it is dedicated to him.
