ReStructure Mix Update (5/18/25):”Dancing Angel” – Glenn Rivera ReStructure Mix – Constellation Orchestra


Constellation Orchestra is a disco project from Jesse Boyce and Moses Dillard from 1978. One of their follow up projects to Saturday Night Band (“Come On, Dance, Dance”). This ensemble is indeed the New York disco sound of the period and also on the classic dance label Prelude Records. Featured on vocals are Clyde Tucker, Donna McElroy and Vicki Hampton. Focused on a theme based on the universe and its “celestial” mysteries with four tracks featuring the title track “Perfect Love Affair”. Boyce and Dillard bring a full on orchestral/Euro-disco feel to this production and arrangement and bring to life an imaginary place somewhere which is outlined with unity and love. “Dancing Angel” is a fantasy of a new realm which brings us closer to an all-night dance where we can escape and take part in this universal moment. One of the best that the late 70’s had to offer and the beauty of disco music contained.

I have taken the album version of “Dancing Angel” and rearranged and re-layered pieces of the original for this ReStructure Mix. A new foundation is added to steer this new adventure into a galactic dance experience.

Dedicated to the real geniuses - Mr. Jesse Boyce and Mr. Moses Dillard
