Breathing new life into the 1998 dance anthem, Armin van Buuren reimagines 'Let Me Show You' with a fresh, high-energy twist for today’s festival stages.
Some tracks are timeless—they don't fade, they evolve. Armin van Buuren dives into the dance music archives to revive Camisra's iconic 'Let Me Show You,' giving it a fresh spin for a new generation. Originally a chart-topping hit in 1998, this classic anthem is set to ignite dance floors once again, reimagined by one of the industry's most celebrated artists, and released under Armada Music.
‘Let Me Show You,’ first released in 1998 by Camisra (the alias of ‘Tall’ Paul Newman), soared to the top 5 in the UK charts and remains a cherished track in the electronic music scene. Over 25 years later, it continues to be a favorite among top DJs like James Hype, Jax Jones, and the legendary Solomun. Now, Armin van Buuren breathes new life into this rave classic, reshaping its timeless energy for today’s dance floors and festival stages. The 2024 rework adds a harder edge, delivering an intensified sonic experience with elevated synths and the iconic vocal hooks that made the original unforgettable. After already making waves at Tomorrowland Winter, this revamped version of 'Let Me Show You' is poised to dominate the upcoming festival season.
“Sometimes, to move forward, you need to look back,” Armin van Buuren explains. “When I first heard ‘Let Me Show You,’ I knew it 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 rework strikes the perfect balance between nostalgia and innovation. He preserves the key elements that made ‘Let Me Show You’ a classic—the driving drums and bold synths—while adding his signature deeper basslines and a more dramatic drop, ensuring the track feels both familiar and thrillingly new.
