ReStructure Mix Update (9/5/25): ”Tour De France” – Glenn Rivera ReStructure Mix – Kraftwerk

Kraftwerk is an innovative electronic band formed in the early 80s outlining a futuristic computer sound. Their music influenced many genres of dance music during the mid and late 70s. “Tour De France” is their 1983 single which celebrates the entirety of their arrangements and execution of pop-dance street outlines. It is one of their nice tracks which takes their experimental devotion and wraps it again into a new package. Produced by Kraftwerk and making another mark in 1983’s electronic dance pool.

I have taken the 12’ French version and the original album version to outline a new ReStructure Mix for this great number. More of a downbeat is added to facilitate the rhythm and a new arrangement percolates throughout this remix.

ReStructure Mix Update (9/2/25): ”You’re The One I Love” – Glenn Rivera ReStructure Mix – Naked Truth

ReStructure Mix Update (9/2/25): ”You’re The One I Love” – Glenn Rivera ReStructure Mix – Naked Truth

Naked Truth is a disco project from 1976 and produced by Jesse Boyce (Lorraine Johnson, Saturday Night Band, Frisky, Constellation Orchestra) and Sanchez Harley. Released as a 7” single on Sound Stage 7 Records this funky disco piece has a number of moments which set it into a soulful and moving arrangement. Vocals are accredited to Bernita and Chorus - taking the shimmering strings into a higher element with their simplistic approach. This single features Part 1 on side a and a Part 2 version with a lot more of the disco sweeps complete with strings and percussion. A nice piece of homework to find that Mr. Jesse Boyce was soon to become the leader of New York disco in a few years to come along with Moses Dillard on Prelude Records.

I have taken the 7” versions of “You’re The One I Love” and rewired the funky groove and energy for this new ReStructure Mix. A simple percussion track is added along with a few new breakdowns and a cold ending.

ReStructure Mix Update (9/1/25): ”Secret Agent Man” – Glenn Rivera ReStructure Mix – Ultimate

ReStructure Mix Update (9/1/25): ”Secret Agent Man” – Glenn Rivera ReStructure Mix – Ultimate

Ultimate is a disco group started in 1978 from Casablanca Records and an idea by Marc Paul Simon who worked in promotion on projects by Paul Jabara and also the soundtrack to “Thank God It’s Friday”. The first project was produced by Juliano Salerni (Strange Affair, Hi-Gloss, Tangerue and Bonnie Boyer) and featured a European disco outline complete with an orchestral feel. Their follow-up in 1980 was produced by Bruce Weeden and Michael Forte and was more of a Philly soul sound with a disco edge. “Secret Agent Man” is their cover of the Johnny Rivers’ 1966 classic in the full disco flare. Exchanging the guitars to the lush sound of strings and utilizing a full percussion break for the dance floor to eat up. The beautiful vocals from Barbara Hernandez, Deborah McGriff and Riti Saunders create the Bond-like feel of this cover.

I have taken the album version of Ultimate’s cover of “Secret Agent Man” and built a new extended groove for this ReStructure Mix. Using the percussion pieces and placing them amongst the verses and choruses to create a new experience for this clever remake.

NEXT ReSTRUCTURE MIX: "Secret Agent Man" - Glenn Rivera ReStructure Mix - Ultimate

NEXT ReSTRUCTURE MIX:
"Secret Agent Man" - Glenn Rivera ReStructure Mix - Ultimate

ReStructure Mix Update (8/31/25): ”Dance ‘N’ Sing ‘N’” – Glenn Rivera ReStructure Mix – L.T.D.

ReStructure Mix Update (8/31/25): ”Dance ‘N’ Sing ‘N’” – Glenn Rivera ReStructure Mix – L.T.D.

L.T.D. is Abraham J. "Onion" Miller Jr., Alvino Bennett, Andre Ray, Billy Osborne, Carle Vickers, Henry Davis, Jake Riley, Jeffrey Osborne, Jimmie Davis, Johnny McGhee, Leslie Wilson, Lorenzo Carnegie, Pondaza Santiel and Tobie Wynn. This band hit a vein in the dance floor in 1977 with their big hit “Everytime I Turn Around) Back In Love Again” - produced by Larry Mizell & Fonce Mizell. “Dance ‘N’ Sing ‘N’” is from their 1979 project titled “Devotion” and is their anthem to disco music during its peak. The track features the lead vocal of Jeffrey Osborne which was a recognizable feat from the ensemble and always seems to mold a hit. The ongoing words of celebration for the activity on the dance floor make this song sure it has landed in the right place.

I have taken the 12” version of “Dance ‘N’ Sing ‘N’” and placed another job for this number for this ReStructure Mix. The break from the original is used as a bridge to several moments where the energy is fused again. Also a whole new arrangement for the placement of the messages in the song.
