REISSUE: "Boogie Motion" - Glenn Rivera ReStructure Mix - Beautiful Bend

 

REISSUE: "Boogie Motion" - Glenn Rivera ReStructure Mix - Beautiful Bend Known as the theme to television's 1979 dance program, "Dance Fever" - this is the best as disco gets. Boris Midney created USA-European Connection in 1978 and broke all barriers of the disco arrangement. Taking Giorgio Moroder's steps even further by creating a wall of electronic keyboards fused with lush strings and horns - then sprinkling an adoring Philly-like ensemble. It was a dream come true for many of the time. This was the follow up LP from USA-European Connection and was just as powerful - many of the cuts today are hard-core classics. Midney made electronics work for him by creating a stop-and-go arrangement which made dance floors ready for a funky bongo riff to appear from cascading strings to gliding keyboards. "Boogie Motion" is transformed here into a ReStructure using those beautiful vocals (by Xo-Xo - who are most likely the vocalists from his first LP) and a few more of those pulsating synthesizer effects.
