ReStructure Mix Update (6/26/26): ”Romantic Love” – Glenn Rivera ReStructure Mix – The Ritchie Family

ReStructure Mix Update (6/26/26): ”Romantic Love”  – Glenn Rivera ReStructure Mix – The Ritchie Family

The Ritchie Family is a dream-disco group from producer Jacques Morali - who also gave dance floors Village People, Patrick Juvet, Gypsy Lane and Dennis Parker. “Romantic Love” comes from their second album titled “Arabian Nights” from 1976. It is undeniably a Euro-disco flavor with more strings and melody along with dance floor riffs supplying the glue to hold it all together. The Mantovani piano and string touches give it a majestic touch along with the gals Cassandra Ann Wooten, Cheryl Mason Jacks and Gwendolyn Oliver who “woo” us with their delicate and energizing vocal teaming. “Romantic Love” comes off as a sweet and sometimes silly love song with a Broadway intention yet it displays this trio and their early music which became one of the catalysts and shifts in pop music during the mid-70s. 

I have taken the album version of “Romantic Love” and played out the drama in a ReStructure Mix that places more chopping on the block. A few pieces of percussion added from Tasha Thomas’ “Midnight Rendezvous” are laid out as the groove for this remixure.

ReStructure Mix Update (6/22/26): ”Tomorrow” – Glenn Rivera ReStructure Mix – The Communards

ReStructure Mix Update (6/22/26): ”Tomorrow”  – Glenn Rivera ReStructure Mix – The Communards

The Communards are Jimmy Sommerville (vocalist from Bronski Beat) and Richard Coles. The duo had several hits during the mid and late 80’s with covers of The Jackson 5’s “Never Can Say Goodbye” and Thelma Houston’s “Don’t Leave Me This Way” where Sommerville transferred a whole new energy and excitement to these hits with his unique falsetto vocal approach. The electronic accompaniment is also a lasting piece of their success where many segments of each song are broken down and then lifted right back where the energy is contagious. “Tomorrrow” is a symphonic and climatic piece with the intent of a love leaving an abusive and done relationship is the cry making him stronger. Somerville once again revives his intense focus on the emotion with much affect. The track was produced by Stephen Hague and pulls this duo into another historic mark of their music.

I have taken the 12” versions of “Tomorrow” into a new ReStructure Mix and spared a few new crescendos for this outline. There are a few new breaks with vocal segments again emphasizing the power of Sommerville’s talent.

ReStructure Mix Update (6/16/26): ”Why Does It Rain” – Glenn Rivera ReStructure Mix – Bob-A-Rela

ReStructure Mix Update (6/16/26): ”Why Does It Rain”  – Glenn Rivera ReStructure Mix – Bob-A-Rela

Bob-A-Rela is a disco project from 1979 from producers George Lagios and Pat Deserio. A space fused production with a rock edge to each piece placed carefully in this disco harvest. “Why Does It Rain” is a track which plays out like a classic rock tune begging for an answer for heartache as it sets in. The slight twist with the guitars whining out the crescendo of echoes at the end of the song are one of the memorable pieces of this fabulous take on disco in a futuristic rock arena. The cowbell outline gives the haunting resonance that makes the song even more powerful. Deserio worked with Bombers during this period and his touch is evenly felt throughout this venture in a lasting touch.

I have taken the album version of “Why Does It Rain” and placed it in the ReStructure Mix mode for another mild edit and resurrection of the song. I have edged out more of the verses where pieces of the closing segments take over.
