Versatile producer Lyle LaRue is back with a bang, having dropped ‘Won’t Come Back’ towards the end of me. Featuring a stellar vocal from Ashenelle, hooky guitar lines sit alongside glowing melodies in an instant classic of an RnB record.
Discussing the release Lyle Larue explains:
“I wrote “Won’t Come Back” while staying a couple weeks at a friends house in Shanghai, China. There was a one minute demo on my computer that I knew I needed to finish. I don’t know if it was the jet lag or the water in my coffee, but I sat down and the song finished itself in 2 hours. I had my friend (Ashenelle) listen to the rough and she seemed to enjoy the track so a few hours later we had finished lyrics and tracked vocals. Her voice added the final texture the song needed. It’s basically a musical collage of all my favorite songs. I have artists like Alina Baraz and Solange on repeat, so it felt right to begin this project with sultry R&B. After spending many years creating the musical worlds for other people I feel like this song has started to build mine.”
With a genre bending style of production, Lyle Larue’s is shrewd and stylistic with his approach in forming commercial releases with universal appeal. With nearly 100K streams on his first two records, it’s clear that Lyle’s methods are tried and tested. Currently sat on a plethora of material, Lyle Larue proves to be both diverse and daring, and we can only expect more of the same in the weeks and months to come.
