ReStructure Mix Update (6/2/19) “The Letter” - Glenn Rivera ReStructure Mix – Amii Stewart

Amii Stewart is best known for her huge disco hit from 1978 “Knock On Wood” – a cover of Eddie Floyd’s 1967 soul classic. Her transformation of the song into a disco powerhouse event is thanks to producer Barry Leng. This formula is repeated again with Amii’s 1979 release of “The Letter” – yet another transformed pop classic into “disco heaven”. This track from her album “Paradise Bird” gives off a rock edged electronic arrangement with the same level of disco magic. Lots of heavy drums and bass-lines that roll out each part of Amii’s incredible vocal delivery. This is again one of the big assets in disco history which never grows out of fashion for this genre.

I have taken the album version of “The Letter” and moved it into a new phase of the underground feel for this ReStructure Mix. Pulling the ominous bass tracks and pounding drums into an ethereal environment. More of that fading off for the big finish into oblivion – but with that idea that it is not quite over yet.
