ReStructure Mix Update (3/17/20) “Jerky Rhythm” - Glenn Rivera ReStructure Mix – Erotic Drum Band






Erotic Drum Band is one of the early paths into hardcore projects of the early disco explosion. A conceptual group using heavy drums and percussion to outline dance floor tracks which at the time were proud to push all of the emphasis of the disco beat and percussion used to pump it up. Peter Di Milo brought a reality to this concept with Erotic Drum Band and made dancing a ritual like experience. The deeper focus on the rhythm itself and modeling drums and bongos for each track was a 60’s psychedelic experience. “Jerky Rhythm” is the finale number on the album, “Plug Me To Death” which plays out in this manner with the power of a Coachella Festival dance space. The projects include co-production from other Canadian music talent, George (Jerry) Cucuzzella and Sam Conte.

I have taken the album version of “Jerky Rhythm” and worked to create a new layer of raw dance for this ReStructure Mix. I have added a few classic rock touches from Santana to bring to life the experience of working an underground feel.

This ReStructure Mix is dedicated to Peter Di Milo! Thank you Peter for making disco music explode right below our feet!
