ReStructure Mix Update (5/29/20) “Burn It Up, Mr. D.J.” - Glenn Rivera ReStructure Mix – Risqué

Risqué is an electronic dance band from The Netherlands - Denise van der Hek), Donna Baron, Ingrid de Goede, Irene van der Hoeven. Their 1983 single titled “:Burn It Up (Mr. D.J.)” was an awaited release from the group who scored a place on dance floors a year earlier with “Girls Are Back In Town” – both produced by Coen Bais (Sensation, Snowflake) and John Tilly (Telekin, Forrest, Future). This group is one of the stylized girl groups of the 80’s – very much like Bananarama. “Burn It Up, Mr. D.J.” Is a frenetic piece that delivers the wonderful energy this ensemble has contributed to the dance music scene in the early 80’s? The masterful electronic arrangement from John Tilly plays out marvelously and gives this number the right amount of pulse it needs.

I have taken the 12” club and instrumental versions of “Burn It Up, Mr. D.J.” and reedited a ReStructure Mix to blend more of this magic in a new way. There is more percussion which stands out over those silky voices.
