REISSUE: "Every 1’s A Winner” - Glenn Rivera ReStructure Mix – Hot Chocolate

REISSUE: "Every 1’s A Winner” - Glenn Rivera ReStructure Mix – Hot Chocolate Hot Chocolate is a band formed in 1969 whom became one of the recognizable recordings and appropriate for the pop and funk fusion of the period. “You Sexy Thing” from 1975 poured their sound into a wall of success and gave this band the stage they so deserved. Their 1978 album “Every 1’s A Winner” brought an even success with the title track once again delivering the sound of funk played out with a raw but polished production. It is one of the early tracks I can recall defining as a disco and since then have referred to it for a mind trip back to the funky 70s. I have taken the 12” version of “Every 1’s A Winner” and brought the resonating raw feel to the level a ReStructure Mix is all about. A new intro using teasing samples of their earlier hit and a sexy purr from Mr. Giorgio Moroder. A new sleaze direction with some effects here and there to remind us that beats are meant to be reworked.
