The second single to be pulled upcoming BBE album ‘Strata Records – The Sound of Detroit – Reimagined By Jazzanova’, ‘Saturday Night Special’ features remixes by Kai Alcé and DJ Amir & Re.decay, as well as The Lyman Woodard Organization’s 1975 original.

Possibly the best-known piece of music from the Strata label’s diverse and innovative catalogue, the unique, low-fi, moody, understated aesthetic of ‘Saturday Night Special’ has captured the hearts of music fans and DJs worldwide. “When I first heard the Lyman Woodard Organization ’Saturday Night Special’,” says DJ Amir, “I thought it was a song from a Blaxploitation soundtrack. Once I realized that Lyman was from Detroit, I immediately thought that if there was ever a ’theme song’ for Detroit that ’Saturday Night Special’ would be it. There is such a cinematic vibe to the song full of grit, rawness, and determination that just soaks into your veins. This album/song will always be in my bag of records to survive the apocalypse with!’”

When DJ Amir and Jazzanova began work on the ‘Reimagined’ project, breathing new life into the Strata Records archive, this jazz-funk classic was right at the top of the list of ‘musts’ for the band to re-interpret. “I had no idea what direction they were going to go, musically” says Amir. “The original song had been sampled more than a few times, but in my opinion, it was never done tastefully. However, from the first practice session, I knew that they were spot on with the right direction! Their version is the perfect blend of Detroit and Berlin!”

Kai Alcé’s ‘NDATL’ remix of ‘Saturday Night Special’ (named, like his label, after his three hometowns of New York, Detroit, ATLanta) brings a sure-footed lightness to Jazzanova’s version of the song, making the absolute most of the track’s stellar horn solos. “After hearing the unreleased Kamasi Washington/Gregory Porter remixes he did, I knew I had to reach out Kai” says Amir. “With this remix, he stretches out
the track into a seven minute groove, in the direction of a soulful house/future jazz interpretation.”

Alongside his Berlin production partners Re.decay, DJ Amir turns in a low-slung rework of ‘Saturday Night Special’, using as many parts from the Jazzanova version as possible. “We tried to emulate the intro to one of my favourite jazz dance tracks, ‘Expansions’ by Lonnie
Liston Smith” says Amir. Mission accomplished.

Baianasystem's Seko Bass transforms Guinu's future MPB classic, "Palagô", into a deep, dubby, Afro-Futurist dancefloor excursion that will appeal to tropical bass-obsessed djs and dancers worldwide. As Bainasystem's producer, Seko Bass has been at the forefront of pushing the group's heavy and socially-conscious sound to dominance in Brazil as it continues to simultaneously reverberate far beyond its borders. 

Razor-N-Tape fans will already know BaianaSystem through their epic collaboration with Brazilian psyche-funk legends, Antonio Carlos e Jocafi, on their track, "Água", which RNT released with remixes by JKriv & Diogo Strausz as well as UK’s veteran DJ & producer Jimpster. 

Seko's remix reaffirms the concept of propelling Afro-Brazilian music into the future, elevating the remix further with a guest appearance from BaianaSystem bandmate and iconic Brazilian MC/vocalist, Russo Passapusso, who penned a new verse especially for the remix. Whether or not non-Brazilian listeners will connect with the song’s deep and poetic lyrics, the undeniable visceral impact of the track will be felt on a universal level.
