ReStructure Mix Update (6/27/21) “Tie U Up” - Glenn Rivera ReStructure Mix – The Three Degrees

The Three Degrees are one of the golden voices of soul and disco music. Many of their hits are made thanks to their beautiful harmony and delivery. “Tie U Up” is from their 1989 project titled “..And Holding” – produced by Buzz Amato and John Abbey. A departure from their high energy disco numbers of the late 70’s and early 80’s and onto a funk-driving bass and kick drums. A touch of the Jimmy Jam – Terry Lewis feel from Janet Jackson’s “Control” project. This one gives the ladies a bit of defiant love and dedication to a heart. The chorus is self-explanatory and gives this piece a touch of sleaze but still elegant thanks to these three ladies.

I have taken the 12” vocal and instrumental versions of “Tie Me Up” and re-secured it for this ReStructure Mix. There are some new beats and percussion added to guide the funk of the groove into a hardcore dance track.
