REISSUE: “Percussion” by The Reel – Disco Video Mix by Glenn Rivera

 

REISSUE: “Percussion” by The Reel – Disco Video Mix by Glenn Rivera

The Reel is Dutch producer Peter De Wijn along with engineer Harry Op Den Keidern and their 1983 track “Percussion” is one of the high energy memorable-moments on the floor. A hard hitting bongo track is accompanied by a big band whirl that pulls several lead INS and crescendos. The chorus girls that praise the elements that make this one move are reminiscent of the golden era of it all. This one soars over and over and gives the 80’s a moment to pull that partner in and then reel him/her back out again. 

I have taken the1940’s musical “Strike Up The Band” starring Mickey Rooney and Judy Garland for this Disco Video Mix. Scenes of the “La Conga” number are the premise of this action and provide some kickin’ that makes the energy more than a cha cha.

The film was directed by Busby Berkeley
