REISSUE: “Savin’ Myself” – Glenn Rivera ReStructure Mix – Eria Fachin

 


Eria Fachin is a Canadian high energy artist with a big dance floor hit produced by Vincent Degiorgio. “Savin’ Myself” was an instant classic in the high energy community and became one of the memorable tracks of 1986. A melodic song of heartbreak and the rejection of an ex-lover wanting to return to Eria who has since moved on. It is an outline for the healing of heart and the satisfaction of rejecting inevitable emotion pain. The production is a nice touch of the light keyboards and rolling bass laying a nice stage for Eria’s convincing vocal performance. It is one that upon hearing it for the first time knew it would impact both ears and feet on my dance floor.

I have taken the domestic 12” vocal and instrumental versions on Critique Records and reworked it into a ReStructure Mix giving the basics of the song a new edge. More percussion effects are added for a bit of emphasizing the energy and some play with pieces of the chorus lyrics. More of the synthesizer parts are pumped here to bring it more of a dub and underground feel.
