Ohio Players are one of soul/funk bands of the 70’s which built the groove from the foundation of soul music in the early 70s. Their early presence in soul music helped to bring an extended groove to dance track. “Skin Tight” is from their 1974 album by the same title and relays their exploration of emotions and sexuality. This number is a sexy take on an appealing wear and groove. This one in its original state pulls a jazz take on the bass guitar groove. It is one of the soul classics that bring to mind the evolution of soul and dance music all together.
I have taken the album version of “Skin Tight” and reworked a ReStructure Mix with a layer of new percussion and drops to pay tribute to The Ohio Players. The horns and bass are left intact and extended so that the outline is not lost.
