ReStructure Mix Update (2/6/26): ”Strangers In The Night”  – Glenn Rivera ReStructure Mix – Baumann

Baumann is Peter Baumann - a German keyboard, composer and producer who began his recording career with the group, Tangerine Dream. His influence gave the band an electronic pulse which eventually steered him into a solo career in 1976. “Strangers In The Night” is from the album by the same name released in 1983 and became one of the synth-pop to create the 80’s mood and the unique edge and use of 70’s elements with an 80’s uplift. This cover of Frank Sinatra’s 1966 standard takes the song into a more mysterious situation with a fleeting chorus igniting the track. There are moments where you can feel the influence of Giorgio Moroder and Kraftwerk making the piece take synth-pop to another level.

I have taken the 12” versions of “Strangers In The Night” and placed the new standard dance sound into a ReStructure Mix. Winding up the energy immediately in this remix is the foundation and giving the segments some new treatment finds the classic 80s sound again.
