ReStructure Mix Update (7/20/23): “The Kozak” – Glenn Rivera ReStructure Mix – Oleksa


Oleksa is a Russian ensemble lead by Oleksa Martynovych. Their 1980 single “The Kozak” produced by Frank Previte and O. Martynovych is a disco instrumental with several builds from a percussion base to a blaring horn section. One of the rare disco pieces from 1980 which follows the dance floor of the 70’s pattern where a series of drums, percussion and rhythm guitars bring dancing feet to the hilt. A nice arrangement with several breakdowns and some nice sensual play on vocals.

II have taken the 12” version of “The Kozak” and reedited the original into a new layered ReStructure Mix. Using the original drums and percussion there is a new fade in to each segment leading into the break and finishing up with more of the horns.
