ReStructure Mix Update (1/18/20) “Cocoon” - Glenn Rivera ReStructure Mix – Timerider







Timerider is an electronic disco project from Tess (alias Fancy or Manfred Alois Segieth) who takes his sound into a hardcore instrumental. “Cocoon” uses the logo from the 1985 film and although the composition has no affiliation to the soundtrack from the film this piece still soars as if we were missing a part of the film. The sequencers in this production give way to robotic sound that becomes invigorated with beautiful synthetic strings and horns. It was as if a new score had been recreated by Manfred for the films purpose. This track may remind you of the old disco movie soundtrack themes that either Barry White or Meco would have worked on with this arrangement using more electronic percussion and drums to pound out the melody. It is one of my favorite instrumentals from the time.

I have taken the 12” version of “Cocoon” and recreated a new ReStructure Mix using the sequencer bass synths as a new riff throughout. It is a bit more of a dub version however the synthesized horns and strings remain intact.
