ReStructure Mix Update (7/24/23): “Shame” – Glenn Rivera ReStructure Mix – Gaby Lang


Gaby Lang is a singer from Belgium who released several dance singles during the mid and late 80’s – her last single from 1988 is a cover of the Evelyn ‘Champagne’ King disco classic “Shame”. This full on electronic arrangement works in a mellow and somewhat enticing way. Gaby’s sweet and mild vocals provide a new take on the disco/soul original. The production by Alan Dee takes on a house groove/beat from the period with a lighter edge on the keyboards to provide more of an aesthetic. A nice covers of a disco classic and proves that there is more than one way to skin a cat.

I have taken the 12” version of Gaby Lang’s “Shame” and reworked the original percussion tracks for this ReStructure Mix. A new layer of rhythm is added to give the groove more of a drag-out and slide feel.
