REISSUE: Looking Out” - Glenn Rivera ReStructure Mix – Oh Romeo

 


Oh Romeo is a studio group from high-energy/disco producer Bobby Orlando. The sessions produced several singles on Orlando’s Bobcat Records label including “Looking Out” from 1983. This one is a roundup of the elements that Orlando created in the early 80’s using heavy percussion and rolling synthesizers to pull off the task. It was this sound that helped the mid and late 80’s to continue the dancers to serenade all over again and again. It was definitely a fusion of what producers like Giorgio Moroder were bringing forth in the mid and late 70’s. 

I have taken the 12” version of “Looking Out” and recreated a new energy for the outline of this ReStructure Mix. There is a play on the verses of this daring woman who spend her nights searching for that perfect love and also a bit of tribute to Moroder himself by using one of his finest riffs.
