Saturday, it’s a Saturday…

De La Soul - SaturdaysI feel like I have to bounce back from my Top 40 post fast… so, here’s what I got. De La Soul – A Rollerskate Jam Named “Saturdays”. It’s a jam, you know it. But have you heard all the remixes? In the past few years I’ve been paying special attention to the 12″s of this I see – specifically because of those extra cuts (I had heard there were more). I thought I had heard them all, then about a year or so ago I found a new one (all be it, possibly a bootleg – see Disco Fever Mix below). So, I’m taking a second to give props to the remixes. Heard others you’re feelin? Hit me up!

PS I’m not fucking with the house remixes.

De La Soul – Saturdays (Who’s Skatin Promo)
[audio:saturdays-who.mp3]
This was off the 12″ with all the house mixes on he flip side. Not really a remix at all, just a promo, shout out cut.

De La Soul – Saturdays (What Yo Life Can Truly Be)

[audio:saturdays-what.mp3]
Now this is the cut. Dres of Black Sheep rips it on this one. The Woody Woodpecker noise is a bit annoying, and the hooks are short but it’s a posee cut so extra verse time was needed for everyone to rep.

De La Soul – Saturdays (Ladies Nite Decision)
[audio:saturdays-ladies.mp3]
Another banger. Extra keys, some disco flair, a touch house, chunked up bass, more shouts outs for the ladies.

De La Soul – Saturdays (Disco Fever Edit)
[audio:saturdays-disco.mp3]
Now this is the most recent one I found, and the one y’all might not have heard (possibly because it’s a bootleg). Nothing special really, but I dig it. It’s longer, had more breaks and subtle change ups.
BONUS CUTS

Mighty Ryeders – Evil Vibrations (OG Sample)
