Some tracks never die — they simply evolve. Armin van Buuren digs deep into the archives of Dance music to breathe new life into Camisra‘s legendary ‘Let Me Show You‘. A chart-topping sensation upon its original release back in 1998, this generation-defining classic is primed for the dancefloor yet again, reimagined by one of the industry’s very best, out on Armada Music.
Originally released in 1998 and soaring to the top 5 in the UK charts, ‘Let Me Show You’ by Camisra (an alias of ‘Tall’ Paul Newman) remains a beloved classic, still frequently played today by top-tier DJs like James Hype, Jax Jones and the indomitable Solomun. Now more than 25 years later, this shimmering rave gem is getting a new lease on life as Armin van Buuren takes the reins, reshaping the classic’s timeless energy for both the darkest dance floors and brightest festival stages of today.
The 2024 release reinvents the original with a harder edge, offering a high-energy sonic experience that intensifies the iconic breakdown with elevated synths and unmistakable vocal hits, delivering a fresh yet familiar vibe for today’s audience. Having already proven itself a winner at Tomorrowland Winter, the new version of ‘Let Me Show You’ has all the ingredients to dominate the rest of the festival season.
Armin reflects:
“Sometimes, to move forward, you need to look back. When I first heard ‘Let Me Show You’, it was clear that this track needed a revival, not a reinvention. The original has so much character — I just wanted to enhance what was already there and make it feel fresh for my sets. It’s been a summer anthem.”
Armin’s approach to this rework is all about balance. He preserves the core elements that made ‘Let Me Show You’ an instant classic — the kinetic drums, the bold, rounded synths — while leaving his indelible mark with deeper bass cuts and an even more dramatic drop than the lauded original.
