Simon Soussan brought disco music into the pre-high energy period with many of his pulsating bass lines and frenetic syndrums. His projects with Pattie Brooks and Shalamar were the inception of soul oriented vocals over a disco arrangement. This brought him to the next tier with studio sessions like Romance, Arpeggio and artist Jessica Williams.
His 1979 project The Simon Orchestra was a treat for dance floors that were ready to move into the motion of high energy disco music. “Mr. Big Shot” being the title track and having every possible angle covered: percussion, heavy bass, rolling synthesizers and massive vocals.
I have taken the track which features the fabulous, Jessica Williams on lead vocal and given it a brand new ReStructure edge. Peeling away the synths and re-wrapping them amongst the powerful percussion tracks. It is a feast for 80’s disco lovers.
Dedicated to Jessica Williams whose talents are supreme.
