Machine is a disco/funk band featuring Clare Bathé, Jay Stovall, Jocelyn Brown, Kevin Nance, Lonnie Ferguson, Melvin Lee and Thomas Browder. Their big disco hit “There But For The Grace Of God Go I” from 1979 made them one of the most promising bands of the time. “Is It Love” is from their second project titled “Moving On” - produced by Joe Ferla. This piece is one of the funkiest bass guitar riffs from the time. The plucking works in and over the beats and groove of this song. It is assuring also that the lyrics project an outline of that feeling that we all experience when someone special steps into our lives. A great follow up single and a mark for this band in their short exposure.
I have taken the 12” version of “Is It Love” and reworked a new ReStructure Mix with a new balance. The bass guitar plays the main ingredient here and a couple of new drop breaks are planted to make it a new experience.
