I Can Tell - Glenn Rivera ReStructure Mix - Chanson

• I Can Tell - Glenn Rivera ReStructure Mix - Chanson
A band comprised of some powerful musicians of the 80's - Jeff Porcaro and David Paich. James Jamerson Jr. and David Williams produced this LP along with Linda Evans on vocals. A song that builds and builds and the orchestra follows. Wonderful strings and percussion. I have ReStructured the song to break a few times and played on the big drum sound. A hit worth trying out.

I'm Attached To You - Glenn Rivera ReStructure Mix - Boris Midney's Masquerade

• I'm Attached To You - Glenn Rivera ReStructure Mix - Masquerade

A disco concerto for the children's story "Pinocchio" is what Masquerade is all about. Boris Midney who brought us USA-Eurpoean Connection, Caress, Beautiful Bend, Double Discovery, Nannette Garcia and Festival created a beat driven soundtrack to an imaginary tale of a "funky puppet" who goes looking for love and fines the "Land Of Miracle's" is a cardboard cut out of party, party, party. Sounds good? This track is the song when Pinocchio finds what he thinks is love for the first time - of course we know he has a wooden heart and it takes the rest of his journey to find what he is really in need of. The LP is pretty interesting if you use your feet and your imagination. The master, Boris Midney makes it easy. This ReStructure pulls more of the vocal to the surface and makes a few breaks obvious along the way.
Dedicated to Erwin in East Flanders for helping to keep disco and Midney's magic alive.

Do What You Wanna Do - Glenn Rivera ReStructure Mix - Nona Hendryx and The Cage

• Do What You Wanna Do - Glenn Rivera ReStructure Mix - Nona Hendryx and The Cage
This one is a cover of the classic by T-Connection originally recorded in 1977 - Nona's cover in 1982 works well with her fantastic vocals and the metal-crush sound of The Cage. This track moves so quickly that you really have to think fast. Although the original is more of a seventies event, this remake is also just a memorable.
Requested by and dedicated to Chris in New Orleans!

Love To Love You Baby - Glenn Rivera ReStructure Mix - Donna Summer

• Love To Love You Baby - Glenn Rivera ReStructure Mix - Donna Summer
It was the start of disco ecstasy. It has been said that this classic may have been influenced by Diana Ross' "Love Hangover". There is a difference. This one has the funkiest groove and is laid out flat in this ReStructure Mix. Besides having Donna Summer create a wall of dancing pleasure by emulating a sensual role, it is one of the finest pieces of pop music of the 70's, regardless of it's somewhat controversial outline. Giorgio Moroder and Pete Belotte did the honors in the production along with Moroder's Munich Machine pumping out the groove. This one will last forever and can only be expressed with the proper essence by Donna herself. This one is as high as one can get.

Mr. DJ You Know How To Make Me Dance - Glenn Rivera ReStructure Mix - Glass Family

• Mr. DJ You Know How To Make Me Dance - Glenn Rivera ReStructure Mix - Glass Family
The sound of pure disco music is based on it's "beats". In 1978 dance music was influenced by earlier producers, vocalists and musicians - many of these talents make up the fusion of disco music. Glass Family was a project produced by Jim Callon who also put together JDC Records Inc. Vocalist Taka Boom (Chaka Khan's younger sister) who appeared on Undisputed Truth's "You + Me" and proved to be a driving force in the crossover of soul and disco styles took over this track and made it a club favorite. The instrumental is a simple mix, yet lays out a great formula to move with. This ReStructure creates a "drop break" oriented feel and makes it easier to find out exactly what Taka is crooning about.

Breaking and Entering - Glenn Rivera ReStructure Mix - Dee Dee Sharp Gamble

• Breaking and Entering - Glenn Rivera ReStructure Mix - Dee Dee Sharp Gamble
The Philly Sound was a big part of the disco movement in the mid-70's - the last of this sound echoed in hits like "Breaking and Entering" by the one and only Dee Dee Sharp Gamble. This dance master cut was released in 1980. A great production featuring the Sweethearts of Sigma on backup vocals. I have taken this cut by request of Alan and given it more filler with a new rhythm track and a few changes in direction. It is a great song to recognize the shofting of dance music from the late seventies to the new sound of the eighties.

Down, Deep Inside - Glenn Rivera ReStructure Mix - Donna Summer

• Down, Deep Inside - Glenn Rivera ReStructure Mix - Donna Summer
John Barry (Jame's Bond Films, Shirley Bassey) was paired with Donna Summer in 1977 to create a theme song for the upcoming film "The Deep". An easy task for Summer at the time - she was on a winning streak. And the results being, "Down, Deep Inside" was the proof. This cut was released as a 12" single to "I Feel Love" as well as the soundtrack. It became one of Donna's most underground hits from it's release until today. The fusion of the Caslypso feel are unique in it's sytnhesized percussion and drive - as if they were made for each other. And along with Donna's sensual style we can experience the best of this time. My ReStructure mix adds more drum tracks along with the original tracks to create an extended and more mysterious sound.
Once again, thanks to Alan and a dedication to all Donna-Tribute.com for the inspiration.

Star Cruiser - Glenn Rivera ReStructure Mix - Gregg Diamond's Star Cruiser

• Star Cruiser - Glenn Rivera ReStructure Mix - Gregg Diamond's Star Cruiser
When TK Records hired Gregg Diamond to produce a Bionic Boogie for their label, Diamond did them the favor. This fantastic project came at a time when perfection rang among the disco music of the time. Gregg was responsible for Andrea True Connection, Bionic Boogie, Gloria Gaynor, George McCrae recordings and took his talents into the studio again with an array of talent. Much of music here remains intact with "Star Cruiser" being no exception. Horns, guitars, strings and funky vocals (Gordon Grody, Diva Gray, Jocelyn Brown and Zach Sanders). It's no wonder why Diamond is the underground choice for hard-core disco music before, during and after the boom!
Dedicated to Alan for all of his support, kindness, energy and of course, for asking :)
