REISSUE: “Dancing In My Sleep” – Glenn Rivera ReStructure Mix – Secret Ties

Secret Ties is a 80s high energy project from Brian Soares (“Magic”) and Gerry Caples and from their independent dance label Nightwave Records. This simple dance layout is a formulation of the disco sound – full of percussion and the sexy femme vocals. Provided here by Cheryl Ford and enhanced by a light Caribbean festival accent. This one was quite popular in many clubs during its release and also gave us the feeling that dance floors were still alive.

I have taken the 12” vocal and instrumental to create a new ReStructure Mix using samples from tracks by Blue Moderne and a rock classic by Brian Hyland. The percussion is the main flare in this fabulous track and reminds me of Roni Griffith’s “(Best Part of) Breakin’ Up” from 1982.

This ReStructure Mix is dedicated to Dee Jacobs from Facebook and thanks for the request and for always being kind and supportive! Cha-cha-cha!
