REISSUE: “Sex Appeal” - Glenn Rivera ReStructure Mix – Vivian Vee





REISSUE: “Sex Appeal” - Glenn Rivera ReStructure Mix – Vivian Vee
Vivian Vee is an Italo-disco artist who took the dance world over with her first album “Give Me A Break” produced by Claudio Simonetti and Giancarlo Meo in 1979. The project seemed to ignite the sweep of Italian disco productions in the coming years. “Sex Appeal” is a single from 1982 and uses a bass guitar lick to bring more of a sleaze feel to Vivian’s sexy performance. A great early morning track with the feel of the great sound of Simonetti and Meo leading the way into a use of synths, drums and keyboards in a whole new package. I have taken the 12” of “Sex Appeal” and created a laid back ReStructure Mix which takes edits and loops of the hypnotic bass to use. This reworking gives the original another opportunity to display the best of the early 80s in that underground feel.
