ReStructure Mix Update (7/23/24):”Two Tribes” – Glenn Rivera ReStructure Mix – Frankie Goes To Hollywood


Frankie Goes To Hollywood are William Holly Johnson, Paul Rutherford, Brian Nash, Peter Gill and Mark O'Toole – an ensemble compiled by producer Trevor Horn (Buggles, Art Of Noise). An 80’s answer to Village People with a wide world appeal focused on world peace and sex. “Two Tribes” is a single from their “Welcome To The Pleasuredome” album from 1984. This track is a graphic view of the world pushed to the brink of atomic weapons due to the inability to find alternate solutions. The song creates the scenario of just how primitive the concept of war works with humanity. A percussion driven base delivers an arrangement introducing the time zones of war and its negative impact on the planet. One of the big 80’s pieces which once again keep the pure disco edge with a new feel.

I have taken the 12” “annihilation” mix and instrumental of “Two Tribes” to assemble once again a new ReStructure Mix. More of the sequencers and jittery keyboards are spotlighted as an outline for this new arrangement.
