REISSUE: "Are You Lovin' Somebody" - Glenn Rivera ReStructure Mix - Debra Dejean
In 1981 dance music was looking for a direction to head into. A new trend of nu-wave and dance oriented rock began to filter onto many dance floors evening out the trend of disco market making high energy nearly extinct in the US. Many artists like, Debra Dejean were continuing to release tracks that had similarity to high energy with a new edge. "Are You Lovin' Somebody" is a track with a rock edge and more early morning sleaze elements to make it well-known for dance floors using a lower BPM formula of the time. It was a time for more experimentation and return to disco's roots soon after. Produced by Bo Bohannon and Carl Marsh this track outlines more of a stand up cruise bar more than anything. It has always been a favorite of mine in the sleaze end of dance music. I have ReStructured this track with a friend of mine, Danny B. who has always loved this song and made it more of an option for remixing. We have been through the music carousel from the early 80's through the 90's and it was a great ride.
