REISSUE: “Heart Beat” - Glenn Rivera ReStructure Mix – Vivian Vee


Vivian Vee made a wonderful transition into the late 80’s club music scene in 1987 with her high-energy hit “Heart Beat”. This time under the production of Alvaro Ugolini and Darlo Raimondi (of Fun Fun) and with more of the power that the dance floors required. The track begins with a strong percussion baseline and climbs level by level to a range where Vivian’s soft and childlike voice becomes a presence we have never heard before. It is one of the high-energy favs among those who followed the Italo-disco scene and knew what it was morphing into at the time.

I have taken the 12” vocal and instrumental version of “Heart Beat” and translated the long song into a new ReStructure Mix. Using more of the instrumental to create a new flowing edge for this powerhouse song.
