ReStructure Mix Update (6/12/23): “Dim All The Lights” – Glenn Rivera ReStructure Mix – Laura Branigan


Laura Branigan is a singer who brought the 80’s excitement with her big dance hits “Gloria” and “Solitaire”. “Dim All The Lights” is her 1995 cover of Donna Summer’s self-penned hit from 1979 and her “Bad Girls” project. Branigan gives the track her range of talent mildly yet effectively with a production by Orville Brinsley Evans which follows the late 80’s and 90’s pop-house outline. Light keyboards and a kick-house rhythm are the transformation from the disco beats of the original. The song itself is one of those which always sound anthem-like and this cover helps keep it up to par as the song deserves.

I have taken the original short version of Laura Branigan’s “Dim All The Lights” and used a light new drum track and much of the instrumental to create this new ReStructure Mix. This arrangement drops in and out of a mood that gives a moment of reprise to each segment.
