REISSUE: “Get Off” - Glenn Rivera ReStructure Mix – Foxy





REISSUE: “Get Off” - Glenn Rivera ReStructure Mix – Foxy Foxy is Ish Ledesma, Arnold Paseiro, Charlie Murciano, Joe Galdo and Richie Puente. The funk was brought to the hilt with bands like Foxy during the disco years. The blend of slamming beats and the aural essence of the club scene made this sound a new edge. “Get Off” is from their second album from 1978 with the same title. This track is now an old school and disco classic and maintains it funkiness with its party atmosphere and kickin’ rhythm. A huge shift for both dance floors and disco in the late 70s and perhaps one of the big influences on soon to emerge 80’s punk funk. I have taken the 12” version of “Get Off” and re-chopped and assembled the groove into a ReStructure Mix to pay tribute to this monster. It works into a mere frenzy with more of the parts that make it one of those hard to not move and forget numbers.
