ReStructure Mix Update (9/12/23): “Disco Star” – Glenn Rivera ReStructure Mix – Jackie Carter


Jackie Carter is a singer with her first project titled “Treat Me Like A Woman” was released in 1976 – produced and arranged by Dieter Dierks. The single “Disco Star” is a “boogie” track in the vein of Silver Convention and the early formula of disco in the mid-70s. A heavy bass track and light strings guide this dance number to a hip shakin’ experience along with the male spoken riff which defines it. The vocal from Jackie plays out well as she explains how to make you on alive on the dance floor with her method. It is one of the early disco tracks which make the traces of disco music easily understood and also undeniably irresistible.

I have taken the 3 minute album version of “Disco Star” and extended and tweaked it for this ReStructure Mix. A beat and finger popping percussion track is now guiding this one into a new realm using the pieces of vocals and riffs as a new forte.

This ReStructure Mix was requested by Carla Monsalve and is dedicated to her endless "disco energy"! Thank you, Carla
