“On The Road Again” - Glenn Rivera ReStructure
Mix – Rockets
Rockets are Claude Lemoine, Alain Groetzinger,
Alain Maratrat, André Thus, Bernard Torelli, Christian Le Bartz, Fabrice
Quagliotti, Gerard L'Her and Sal Solo. This futuristic styled band in the
late 70’s became an underground hit with their sound engaging a mix of
synthetic effects with a rock fused style. “One The Road Again” is from
their 1978 project by the same title and is one of their signature tracks.
A touch of doo-wop meets disco/space funk. Their sound changed in the 80’s
to more of a nu-wave influence and also gave them more of an opportunity
to utilize their unique stage presence. Rockets are in indeed one of the
sounds of the late 70s which was unique and ahead of its sound.
I have taken the 12” version of “On The Road Again” and worked it into a
new ReStructure Mix. A bass beat with more of a union for this space age
piece is added for a rhythmic feel and more of the sequencers are placed
among the journey here.
This ReStructure Mix is dedicated to Antonio Fisichella – thanks for
requesting this great band for a remix and may the force stay with you!
