ReStructure Mix Update (10/14/24):”Lay It On The Line” – Glenn Rivera ReStructure Mix – Elaine Charles

ReStructure Mix Update (10/14/24):”Lay It On The Line” – Glenn Rivera ReStructure Mix – Elaine Charles

Elaine Charles is a high energy artist from Canada founded by Louis Toteda and her 1987 single “Lay It On The Line” being one of her big dance floor hits. The track was produced by Teneen Ali and was mixed down by The Golden Boys using the sample riffs to emphasize its power. The song is an ultimatum drawn by our heroine who knows something is going on behind the scenes with her relationship and she wants to know now. It is a fast moving piece that never gives up from start to finish and one of the crossover tracks of the time from Canadian label to US.

I have taken the 12” vocal and dub of “Lay It On The Line” and reworked the energy for this new ReStructure Mix. Adding a longer new fade-in intro and also taking advantage of those wonderful percussion layers.

ReStructure Mix Update (10/13/24):”Blade Runner” – Glenn Rivera ReStructure Mix – Remake

ReStructure Mix Update (10/13/24):”Blade Runner” – Glenn Rivera ReStructure Mix – Remake

Remake is a techno dance project from Adriano Dodici, Alex Neri, Marco Baroni and Mr. Muzak - and also a full dedication to the trancescene of the early 90’s. Their 1992 release “Blade Runner” is a dance interpretation of the Vangelis soundtrack to the sci-fi epic by the same name. This single has echoes of the 70’s electronic age ignited by Giorgio Moroder with moments where his “Chase” comes to mind. There is a unique outline where the recognizable melody from the film becomes the touch of what is needed to make this one work. There are several sequencers which plot out the rhythm and pull this one in and out of segments into breaks.

I have taken the 12” versions of Remake’s “Blade Runner” and laid out a few new mementos for this ReStructure Mix. I also added pieces of the original soundtrack by Vangelis and a few samples from the film to point this in the right direction.

ReStructure Mix Update (10/11/24):”War Boys” – Glenn Rivera ReStructure Mix – Annabella

ReStructure Mix Update (10/11/24):”War Boys” – Glenn Rivera ReStructure Mix – Annabella

Annabella is Annabella Lwin - and also the lead vocalist in the 80s band Bow-Wow-Wow (“I Want Candy”). Her solo career began in 1986 with the release of her project titled “Fever” - produced by John Robe, The System, Jim Lee, Greg Walsh, and Zeus B. Held. “War Boys” is the first single release from the album and is a mixture of street beat and alternative rock. The story here are the fallen boys who never make it to love in their attempts and even though failure comes they continue to fight for it. Annabella uses a child-like voice to relay this lesson and also moves closely to the electronic and alternative mix. Lots of sound symbolism passes through every once in a bit along with John Robe’s heavy bass sequencers which bring back reminiscent of Shannon.

I have taken the 12” vocal, dub and instrumental of “War Boys” to give salute to those fallen soldiers in this ReStructure Mix. I have worked to create a more fluent arrangement with a few new layered effects.

ReStructure Mix Update (10/8/24):”Visitors” – Glenn Rivera ReStructure Mix – Koto

ReStructure Mix Update (10/8/24):”Visitors” – Glenn Rivera ReStructure Mix – Koto

Koto is Anfrando Maiola composing and arranging and produced by Stefano Cundari. This Italian dance project is one of the classic pieces of music from 1985 and many keyboard riffs make up each of Koto’a creations. “Visitors” is a mind bending instrumental which seems to outline a close look at those mysterious flying ships from far away. The mood of this one is eerie yet uplifting. The full-on electronic production works like magic here as the fingers move up and out to place us right there in the eyes of our “visitors”.

I have taken the 12” version of “Visitors” and re edited the piece into a new ReStructure Mix. The new outline includes some flash mixing from one riff to another as well as some dropped in percussion.
