REISSUE: "Wanna Be Startin'" Something - Glenn Rivera ReStructure Mix - Michael Jackson





REISSUE: "Wanna Be Startin'" Something - Glenn Rivera ReStructure Mix - Michael Jackson

Michael Jackson’s legacy is indeed one of the most powerful and unique. From his childhood recordings with The Jackson Five to his solo career in the early 70s onto the millennium where it appeared to be history in the bag. “Thriller” from 1982 is one of the most known albums in the world thanks to hits like “Billie Jean”, “Beat It”, “P.Y.T. (Pretty Young Thing”) and the title cut – “Wanna Be Startin’ Somethin’” is the peak of the dance floor in the 80s – Quincy and Michael style.

I have taken the 12” single – both the vocal and instrumental to create this alternative ReStructure Mix where I have added a few new elements and laid out that wonderful rhythm and keyboard play. It is an amazing track! In dissecting it for this remix I could find myself in allure once again over the sharp production.
