Lapalux Resurrects R&B Classic ‘Let Me Love You’

Lapalux takes the 2004 R&B favorite “Let Me Love You” by Mario and chops/skews the track into a UK electronic influenced gem re imagined for the 21st Century. Used in his live sets, Lapalux released a version due to popular demand.

One of the UK producers on Flying Lotus’s label BRAINFEEDER, Lapalux has a penchant for creating ambient soundscapes with strong underlying structures through his J. Dilla influences.

Chopping and manipulating Mario’s vocals of “Let Me Love You”, the track starts off in the gentle smooth manner the original.

“Baby I just don’t get it, do you enjoy being hurt?.”

As the hi-hats enter the song evolves into Lapalux’s traditional sound. Right around 0:45 scattering juke drums with electric hi-hats, clean and strong snares, shimmer underneath the higher pitched vocals of Mario. Swirling and pulsing for the rest of the tune, Lapalux’s remix is hard to not enjoy as it’s full of vibrant character.
