Never Was a Cloudy Day: New Remixes Celebrate Earth, Wind & Fire’s “September”
Do you remember?
The 21st night of September is nearly upon us, and it’s always a bit of a day to celebrate for Earth, Wind & Fire fans. This year, the R&B legends are rising to the occasion with a new video and retro-style remixes of the 1978 smash.
The lead single from The Best of Earth, Wind & Fire Volume 1, a Top 10 hit at the time of its release, has taken on a life of its own. Since 2016, writer/comedian Demi Adejuyigbe has gained notoriety with an annual series of over-the-top tributes to the song. (His fifth annual video, seen below, is purported to be his last – unless fans can raise $50,000 for multiple charities.) It’s all a testament to the feel-good vibe of the track as penned by EWF’s late founder, Maurice White; guitarist Al McKay and songwriter Allee Willis.
This year, Legacy Recordings is getting in on the celebration, having just issued a suite of remixes by producer Eric Kupper and a new video to match. While it’s impossible to top the exuberant original, Kupper’s vintage house-style touches make these a fun listen if you’re looking for a new spin on an old favorite.
Check out Demi’s latest “September” tribute and the links to stream or download the new remix suite, all below.
