REISSUE: “Pick Me Up” - Glenn Rivera ReStructure Mix – Marz


Marz is an Italo-disco project from 1984 with Bill Pettaway, Dwayne Herndon, Gerard Mackell, Gregory Mackell, Keith Rowel, and Marvin Ennis. Their big track “Pick Me Up” is an unforgettable song that echoes out a touch of sophisticated funk along with the innovative feel of Italian disco which became its own brand of funk during the early 80s with bands like Change and Bronx, Brooklyn and Queens Band. “Pick Me Up” is a beautiful New York funk stylized piece and has many qualities and riffs that stand out to give a bravo at the closing.

I have taken the 12” on Italian label F1 Team label and reworked the electronic funk to a new ReStructure Mix. This arrangement allows for more of the pumping energy that comes along with the song and gives more of the piano interlude attention for a new intro and fades.
