"let's do it together" is the starting track on jay denes' first blue six album and the first time i heard the song and the album it wasn't really love at first sight. it was a good track but i can't say that this is something like "sweeter love", "music & wine" or "pure" who all are brilliant. infact when i got the single for "let's do it together", it was sort out of completion as i was into all of that but i found myself playing miguel migs' petalpusher dub only.
eric stamille and gaelle addison's speakeasy remix was broken beat and i don't remember if i was into it at the time but i was trying to work some of that material in sets. when i look on this single nowadays, it is the best version and part is because they took the song in a different direction. then again so did miguel migs but his purpose was to make it work in a main room set.
this however spun of the second half of the original where it breaks down to bongo drums and the piano and bass changes motifs. this is also by far the most interesting part of "let's do it together" and the way it's re-interpreted with a different rhythm is brilliant. part of what i didn't care for the original was lisa shaw's vocals for the most part was really uninteresting. here they've used the basic parts and worked them in a good way.
i know i've played this plenty of times for personal listening but i can't remember if i ever worked it in a set. it's really easy to get into and would work excellently with other records. reasons for why i've held it off has to be because it goes a little epic with the strings near the end. it felt like a near the end/closer track and when i was playing this kind material i was in mid-set. i do love this one though.
