REISSUE: "Time After Time” - Glenn Rivera ReStructure Mix – Paul Parker





REISSUE:  "Time After Time” - Glenn Rivera ReStructure Mix – Paul Parker

Paul Parker is a talent who emerged during a disco revival in the early 80s in San Francisco. With artists like Sylvester who brought the city to the disco world map around the world even during a time when disco music slowly lessoned in the market place and became an underground art once again. Paul worked closely with producer and artist Patrick Cowley during the late 70s and early 80s during the electronic high energy movement when dance music was overhauled and repackaged for a new period. “Time After Time” is a cover of Cyndi Lauper’s 1983 ballad with a high energy focus. Produced by high energy producer Ian Anthony Stephens who made the 80s high energy movement works with many of his productions by Marsha Raven, The Flirtations and Hazell Dean. This cover was a nice touch for dance floors to remember disco/dance history of years prior.

I have taken the 12” vocal and instrumental to recreate a fantasy-form of ReStructure Mix with Paul’s wonder vocal and Ian’s simple yet effective production. It is laid out with looping and more vocals from the original. Grab a fan and stand on the sidelines and you may understand how high energy became beautiful and energetic
