ReStructure Mix Update (3/27/25):”Harlequin Tears” – Glenn Rivera ReStructure Mix – Hohokam

Hohokam is Andy Reilly, Dave Earl, George Kamm, Melanie Redmond, Steve Devier and Tony Edwards - a synth-pop ensemble produced by Gary Numan (“Cars”). Their 1985 single “Harlequin Tears” is one drum fest which plays out as a direct heartbreak in reverse as this one turns away from the pain and asks a simple question of heart and emotion: where is your heart? This one is one of the energy choices of the alternate sound of the mid-80s and is still a favorite of mine.

I have taken the 12” version of “Harlequin Tears” and reinvested the energy to recreate this new ReStructure Mix. New drum patterns created from the original mix are reapplied to the new arrangement and offer a new passion for keeping a heart honest.
