REISSUE: "Moonlight” - Glenn Rivera ReStructure Mix – Harlow





REISSUE:  "Moonlight” - Glenn Rivera ReStructure Mix – Harlow

Harlow is a Canadian high energy ensemble featuring Johanna VanDerkley (also known for her lead vocal on Crystal In The Pink’s “Back To You” and Boiling Point’s “Starstruck Lover”), Joanne Perica and Linda Hanchar. This production from 1980 is a return to the disco sound of the late 70s also outlines the title track “Take Off” which is a high energy salutes to points of travel with disco alongside. A familiar theme that Voyage gave us in the late seventies. The female ensemble is also a return to the disco chorus girl feel where the energy is lifted and then brought to a sexy serenade. “Moonlight” is a track from the album which plays out as the band `wondering again without a care and justifying the musician’s carefree life in the disco realm. It is a nice number that salutes as aspects of disco music. The album was produced by Alex Alexander, Bertch Alyanak and Mike Alyanak.

I have taken the album version of “Moonlight” and extended the excitement enhancing the disco groove and lovely vocals with pieces and parts of the original. There are two breakdowns for the anthem feel of this song. The violin parts are placed here again to give the disco edge a landing.
