ReStructure Mix Update (6/30/24):”The American Dream” – Glenn Rivera ReStructure Mix – The Big Smoke

The Big Smoke is a high energy project from Canada and produced by Daze Washburn and Willi Morrison (THP), Their 1986 single “The American Dream” is a reflective theme which uses celebrities who never made it past their fame and in turn the light dimmed before the dream was complete. The influence of Phil Harding is heard in the beats and energy within the track it has his signature throughout the piece in his wonderful way. This one was released during high energy resurgence and was successful on those dance floors which continued to supply that nonstop disco edge.

I have taken the 12” version of “The American Dream” and re-administered a few new passages for this ReStructure Mix. A couple of new breaks are added to bring the song a new sound and also a fade to leave you waiting for and answer out on the dance floor.
