ReStructure Mix Update (3/30/26): ”Fashion” – Glenn Rivera ReStructure Mix – New York Models

New York Models is a high energy project from Bobby Orlando - a vintage disco producer who also created The Flirts, Waterfront Home, Hotline, Gina Desire and Hippies With Haircuts. Orlando’s approach being a heavy percussion layer with light and simple melodies keeping the rhythm connected. “Fashion” is a 1984 release with many pieces of past productions in his arsenal with its rolling bass lines and similar chorus of his track “Passion” by The Flirts. It still cooks on the dance floor with the energy and boldness in Orlando’s single remixes. The female vocalist here explains why her lover is more than just a lover - there is a connection to the latest needed to be in style. It is another one of his sprinkled pieces in his releases and kept his name and sound out the during the 80’s and its many dance floor.

I have taken the 12” vocal and instrumental of “Fashion” into the ReStructure Mix realm in homage to the Orlando sound. The original elements are taken apart and reassembled to give another session of the “fashion” for more than just adorning.

ReStructure Mix Update (3/29/26): ”Rockin’ For Myself” – Glenn Rivera ReStructure Mix – Motiv 8 featuring Angie Brown

ReStructure Mix Update (3/29/26): ”Rockin’ For Myself” – Glenn Rivera ReStructure Mix – Motiv 8 featuring Angie Brown

Motiv 8 is a Euro-house project from Steve Rodway who also released several synth-pop tracks under Rodway including “Don’t Stop Trying” in 1983. “Rockin’ For Myself” is a track released in 1993 during the techno, house and rave segments of club dance music. It features Angie Brown on vocals and delivers a strong rippling bass number that aims to make the feet move. Rodway creates a style which incorporates the rhythms of house and high energy pulled into a Euro-styled finished product. Many of the Motiv 8 singles follow along the same arrangement with the keyboard wizardry of a number of peaks that are delivered with impact. Angie’s vocals here are limited to a few verses yet they pack the song with enough to make one remember it well.

I have taken the 12” versions of “Rockin’ For Myself” and reignited the energy here for a new ReStructure Mix. Taking parts of the 4 original remixes into a new arrangement and giving this one more space to control the oncoming energy. A salute to Rodway and his contributions to dance music and its changing formats.

ReStructure Mix Update (3/27/26): ”Disco Monster” – Glenn Rivera ReStructure Mix – Hope

ReStructure Mix Update (3/27/26): ”Disco Monster” – Glenn Rivera ReStructure Mix – Hope

Hope is a progressive house project from David C. Hope. His 1993 single “Disco Monster” follows a percolating instrumental dub which follows the Donna Summer classic “I Feel Love” - using Giorgio Moroder’s sequencer

patterns as a guide for this dance trip with a few new twists and turns. Singles as this number is produced were used as mix-out segments to bring the dance crowd back down for a bit and this one truly follows this method. It is one of the early 90s experimental tracks. The male voice in the blend repeats “hot stuff” over the twisting patterns and gives a bit of a clue to the title, “Disco Monster”.

I have taken the 12” versions of “Disco Monster” and readministered a touch more of the influence for this ReStructure Mix. Using more of Donna Summer’s “Hot Stuff” for the obvious direction along with more ways to pound out the classic sound.

ReStructure Mix Update (3/26/26): ”Callas” – Glenn Rivera ReStructure Mix – Vox Mystica

ReStructure Mix Update (3/26/26): ”Callas” – Glenn Rivera ReStructure Mix – Vox Mystica

Vox Mystica is a deep house project released on the UK label Low Spirit Records and features techno/rave producer WestBam as co-writer on their 1990 release “Callas”. A tribute to the magnificent talent of opera singer, Maria Callas. The mood in this arrangement moves like a mist slowly engulfing its path and making it quite a religious experience. Percussion follows a Hindu percussion layer which builds into a percolating dance experience. In the wake of a new beat period at the end of the 80s this is a prime example of the creative fusion between Belgium beat, acid house and dub. One of the unique singles and awakening for the alternative dance floor where energy was not always based on BPMs.

I have taken the 12” versions of “Callas” and fused a bit more of the luring introduction into this ReStructure Mix. Adding more pieces of Maria Callas to this finale are my way of paying tribute to this wonderful woven pattern.

ReStructure Mix Update (3/25/26): ”Sweet Images” – Glenn Rivera ReStructure Mix – Chant

ReStructure Mix Update (3/25/26): ”Sweet Images” – Glenn Rivera ReStructure Mix – Chant

Chant is a techno/ambient project from Italian DJ/producer Giuseppe Troccoli. “Sweet Images” is his 1999 single - produced by Marco Dalle Luche. This powerful trance piece is one of the great techno/ambient singles which saturates all of the energy and resonance in this genre of dance music. A celtic feel with a touch of the magnetic edge that ambient music is best known for with a build that encompasses the momentum of an anthem. “Sweet Images” incorporates a vocoder on the main vocal placing it in an arena which sounds like a place of worship with autotone qualities. Indeed one of the fantasy-dance numbers of its time with plenty of energy to give it a nice crossover for peak time.

I have taken the 12” versions of “Sweet Images” and directed the ambient energy for this new ReStructure Mix. More of the excitement opens this new arrangement with more of the components which make this one a classic alternative dance track.
