"Let's Get Started" - Glenn Rivera ReStructure Mix - Voyage

"Let's Get Started" - Glenn Rivera ReStructure Mix - Voyage

"One Step Higher" was the finale project for disco band Voyage in 1982 - their standing on both dance floors and with music connoisseurs was a lasting five year with the excitement of each project. Classics like "Souvenirs", "From East To West" and "I Love You Dancer" are few tracks that are now stamped in disco history.

"Let's Get Started" reverts to the bands lyrical and uplifting chorus feel - it is a great direction and close for the bands creative and musical talents.

I have taken "Let's Get Started" into a ReStructure Mix to extended and add a few pieces to weave a new sound for this anthem. It was requested by Rick and Dean from Australia - two wonderful gentlemen and I dedicate it to both lovingly.

“Small Town Lover” by Cheri – Disco Video Mix by Glenn Rivera

“Small Town Lover” by Cheri – Disco Video Mix by Glenn Rivera

Cheri is Rosalind Hunt (Geraldine Hunt’s daughter – Freddie James’ sister) and Amy Roslyn – a dance duo from Montreal. Their 1982 hit “Murphy’s Law” rolled out the welcome mat on dance floors for future promise.
Their second album titled “Low Stew” from 1983 contained a single title, “Small Town Lover” – a funk-disco track with a mellow and hypnotic groove. It did quite well on disco radio shows and is now an underground old-school favorite.

I was requested to use the film 1988 “Big Business” for a video mix and paired the song up for a “small town” reprise. The film stars Bette Midler and Lily Thrombin as double-twins who are mixed up at birth in a small town and later reunited in the “big city” for chaos and fun. It is an extremely hilarious film and I have taken parts and pieces to reshape the film for this Disco Video Mix.

The film was directed by Jim Abrahams

"Hands Up" - Glenn Rivera ReStructure Mix - Ottawan

"Hands Up" - Glenn Rivera ReStructure Mix - Ottawan

Ottawan is a disco duo from France produced by Daniel Vangarde - who also brought dance floors Gibson Brothers, Starbow, and Who's Who. One of the most popular singles is "D.I.S.C.O." from 1980. Following the success of this single a second LP was released in 1981 called "Ottawan 2" - from this album came "Hands Up" a party anthem.

I have ReStructured "Hands Up" and added some new elements to lead to the excitement of the chorus and enhanced a few areas I felt needed more "umph"! It is a favorite of mine and always did well during peak hours on a crowded dance floor in creating a happy celebration - the way life should be!

Dedicated to all of those who have helped me to create by supporting the sound of these remixes. Thank you.

"Strawberry Johnson 23" - Glenn Rivera ReStructure Mix - Brothers Johnson

"Strawberry Johnson 23" - Glenn Rivera ReStructure Mix - Brothers Johnson

The Brothers Johnson are George Johnson and Louis Johnson - their second LP from 1977 titled "Right On Time" was produced by musical genius, Quincy Jones. It contained a funk-disco classic, "Strawberry Letter 23" . The track did quite well on soul charts as well as fusing the funk sound with disco music.

I have ReStructured the track and added a deep bass feel to the track and intended to keep the glorious feeling of fantasy and love intact. It is a breezy mix that is pieced in a new arrangement and works to hold the original message upfront.

Dedicated to my partner, Ken - thank you for allowing me the love and freedom to create.

“What Makes A Man’ by Marseilles - Disco Video Mix by Glenn Rivera

“What Makes A Man’ by Marseilles - Disco Video Mix by Glenn Rivera

Marseilles released a dance cover version of the great Charles Aznavour song “Comme Ils Disent" (“What Makes A Man”) - produced and arranged by Steve Jolley & Steve Warwick. This version was released in 1990 and did quite well in the underground gay club circuit.

I have taken the 1994 film, “The Adventures of Priscilla, Queen of the Desert” starring Terrance Stamp, Hugo Weaving and
Guy Pearce and placed images and scenes of the comedy-drama along side of this Disco Video Mix to create a whole need message.

The film was directed by Stephan Elliott

"Blood and Honey" - Glenn Rivera ReStructure Mix - Amanda Lear

"Blood and Honey" - Glenn Rivera ReStructure Mix - Amanda Lear

Amanda Lear is a performer who end has yet to be met. She hit the disco scene in 1977 with her LP "I Am A Photograph" - produced by Anthony Monn (Magnifique, Judy Cheeks). Harold Faltermeyer is featured on keyboards.

The single "Blood and Honey" from the project was a big hit in discotheques thanks to the mystique which Amanda brought to imagination and stage presence, It was not long after where she became a lasting image in the disco arena.

I have ReStructured "Blood and Honey" and kept the bongo tracks as the vocal point for a groovy new arrangement and flow. More of a dub with Amanda's lasting verses haunting us to go lower in the night!

This ReStructure Mix is dedicated to Loulou from The Netherlands - Happy New Year my friend.

"Grateful" - Glenn Rivera ReStructure Mix - Sylvester

Sylvester (Sylvester James) hit the disco scene in 1977 with a self-titled album containing the garage classic "Over and Over". His second project titled "Step II" was co-produced by Harvey Fuqua and featured synthesizers by Patrick Cowley.

"Grateful" is another track from the "Step II" album which contained the energy of the disco era and encompassed Sylvester belief in life - "to be grateful!" It is a celebratory track and still holds the key to keeping your life humble and happy.

I have ReStructured this track and extended it's 3:27 timing to a little over 8:00 to give the happiness a go at it a bit longer!

"Remember" - Glenn Rivera ReStructure Mix - Gino Soccio

"Remember" - Glenn Rivera ReStructure Mix - Gino Soccio

Gino Soccio released "Face To Face" in 1982 - it was his fourth project beginning with the success of his classic LP "Outline" - his sound was a unique blend of disco and the sharp edge of electronics. Quite a genius in his own time and even today is respected as an innovative writer, producer and musician.

"Remember" is from the 1982 LP and is a track that emphasizes on sequencers and a dreamy-like feel. A great off-beat choice for disco music and was a big part of the 80's dance scene allowing disco artists to experiment a bit more.

"Discognosis" - Glenn Rivera ReStructure Mix - Discognosis

"Discognosis" - Glenn Rivera ReStructure Mix - Discognosis

Discognosis is an early project from 1977 by Michael Lewis and Lauren Rinder - along with producers, Ed Cobb and Ray Harris. The starting phase for AVI Records who became a trademark for disco music in the mid and late 80's.

This LP was similar to El Coco which Rinder and Lewis brought to life in 1975 with the first LP titled "Mondo Disco". The single "Discognosis" is a session with the funky bass line that their projects were so namely for, as well as plenty of slick keyboards.

Disco music has grown and yet learned from projects as this and continue to return to the roots for the base of this funky formula.

This ReStructure Mix creates another breakdown mix for this classic sound - and also adds a few new pieces to give a whole new sound to move to.

Dedicated with respect and homage to the wonderful men who keep the faith of disco music alive, forever - Michael W. Lewis and Lauren Rinder

"First Hand Experience In Second Hand Love" - Glenn Rivera ReStructure Mix - Giorgio

"First Hand Experience In Second Hand Love" - Glenn Rivera ReStructure Mix - Giorgio

Giorgio Moroder receives another visit to his "From Here To Eternity" project - this time around the track "First Hand Experience In Second Hand Love". The disco answer to "Love Potion #9" - where a man visits the mystic lady to find a clue and instead finds love.

One of Moroder's most hypnotic projects and weaving of sequencers and keyboards create a classic that continues to mystify listeners and dancers throughout time.

I have ReStructured the track by extending segments and adding a few new drum and rhythm beats - as well as some new features to help bring the song to life again.

Dedicated to the hardcore Moroder fans who keep his wonderful music alive.
