REISSUE: “Livin’ Thing” - Glenn Rivera ReStructure Mix – Electric Light Orchestra





REISSUE:  “Livin’ Thing” - Glenn Rivera ReStructure Mix – Electric Light Orchestra

Electric Light Orchestra is the 70’s band which made pop radio a pleasant place to lend an ear. Their music has given the period a new edge in execution and energy. Their 1976 track “Livin’ Thing” is one of the contagious songs by this landmark band and the gypsy violins are the added points. More of a rock-edged pop number this one I always wanted to display on a crowded dance floor as a retro set. It is one of the 70’s treasures and will leave the band as the maker of a sound of a generation.

I have taken the album version and transformed the original into a rousing ReStructure Mix using beats and claps to pace it out for a stomping workout. The strings and guitars are lengthened to create a forceful remix and the intro and fade are for the excitement in general.
