ReStructure Mix Update (4/24/24):”Tina Cherry” – Glenn Rivera ReStructure Mix – Georgio

Georgio (Georgio Allentini) is musician/artist who released three projects starting in the late 80’s. His first success was a single titled “Tina Cherry” from 1987 and was formulated in the deep house sound which was a popular mix during this period. The heavy bass sequencers are the power behind this slick track which caught on fast in clubs. It was the smooth variations of the segments of keyboard riffs which made this number a dance floor hit.

I have taken the 12” vocal, dub and bonus beats of “Tina Cherry” to recreate a new deeper ReStructure Mix for this homage. The bass keyboards are slip in pieces and reused and many of the bonus beats are used to tear down this groove again.

ReStructure Mix Update (4/23/24):”Take Me To The Sun” – Glenn Rivera ReStructure Mix – Paradise Orchestra

ReStructure Mix Update (4/23/24):”Take Me To The Sun” – Glenn Rivera ReStructure Mix – Paradise Orchestra

Paradise Orchestra is Corrado Rizza, Domenico Scuteri and Igino Bianchi – an Italo-house session who released their third single titled “Take Me To The Sun” in 1992. This uplifting ditty is a touch of jazzy vocal deliveries and a thumpin’ Euro-house beat. The essence of house music is here in this production and pours every piano groove into the rumbling basslines. It has a wonderful chorus which sounds quite like an anthem from the period and yet the finale experience is more like an inner peace. Great house music always steered towards the basics and here they are in one package. Vocal are provided by Karen Jones.

I have taken the 12” vocal and dub version of “Take Me To The Sun” and lifted the message once again for this ReStructure Mix. There is a new down beat pounding out segments of the new mix and more breakdowns to initiate that epic dance feel.

ReStructure Mix Update (4/21/24):”Hot Love” – Glenn Rivera ReStructure Mix – Big Ben Tribe

ReStructure Mix Update (4/21/24):”Hot Love” – Glenn Rivera ReStructure Mix – Big Ben Tribe

Big Ben Tribe is an Italian disco group featuring Renato Posani, Riccardo Persi and Stefano Previsti. Their single titled “Hot Love” was released in 1983 and features Giulia Crocini on lead vocals. The track has a bouncy feel with plenty of jungle percussion (as the group title outlines) tinkering throughout the background. It is melodic and builds with the chorus riff echoing out into an anthem-like feel. It is one of the Italian groups from the early 80’s who produced some nice dance material.

I have taken the 12” version of “Hot Love” and reapplied a longer into for this ReStructure Mix for a predominant introduction. The arrangement uses more of the percussion and vocal pieces to create a new sound.

ReStructure Mix Update (4/20/24):”Pipeline” – Glenn Rivera ReStructure Mix – Bruce Johnston

ReStructure Mix Update (4/20/24):”Pipeline” – Glenn Rivera ReStructure Mix – Bruce Johnston

Bruce Johnston is a vocalist, keyboardist, guitarist, bassist, drummer, composer and producer who joined The Beach Boys in 1964. His disco track “Pipeline” from 1977as produced by Gary Usher and is one of the innovative instrumentals of the time. He uses drums and percussion in heavy layers to create a piece which also includes a vocal which resembles a Beach Boys number. This one has the elements of the disco era which the full on string elements and breakdowns. The drum tracks and breaks are interesting and hold a rhythmic edge that is powerful and memorable.

I have taken the 12” single of “Pipeline” and reworked a new ReStructure Mix to give this number another spotlight. The kickin’ drums are used throughout the new arrangement along with those bongo riffs.
