ReStructure Mix Update (10/22/20) “Infatuation” - Glenn Rivera ReStructure Mix – Up Front

Up Front is An 80’s club ensemble featuring Winston Negron and Karen Diggs. Their electro sound brought a definition to 80’s dance music fused with soul and funk. “Infatuation” is their single from 1983 and is one of the New York Club records which took dance floors hostage the summer of its release. One of the pieces from the time period which reaches far beyond the existing grooves and may have been a spark that lit a need for a new definition of music. The vocals here are as New York Street as the early 80’s could deliver and work well over the lesson being told. It is truly one of the great stamps for the night life in theme and sound.

I have taken the 12” vocal and dub of “Infatuation: and recreated a new rippling sound for this ReStructure Mix. Adding some new drums and using the existing trip to take us a bit further.

This ReStructure Mix is dedicated to Marialisa Maiman– thank you for your friendship!
