You Got Me Open (The Club Pop Mixes) By Ronnue

Among flashing lights and vibrating bass rests an artist whole and in his element, connected to the craft in ways so deep; that the artist is Ronnue. Since he picked up the microphone, he has never stopped chasing that singular vision of what music could be. Now, with literally thousands of hours invested, his disciples have grown into an honest-totally following: more than 5k strong fans, who tune in to his reimagined soundscapes on Spotify.

Critics have taken notice of the rare talent of Ronnue, even hailing him as the leader of his underground scene. Seattle may claim Ronnue as its indie icon, but his legion of fans crosses borders and time zones, all united in their devotion to whatever innovation he next puts out.

Ronnue brings a little of both sides, the artist and the studio whiz, to his breakout single “You Got Me Open.” Released as part of his 2023 EP titled “R&B is NOT DEAD,” the funky track demonstrates Ronnue’s gift for building hushedly serene vocal melodies atop funk-tinged rhythmic grooves. Languid yet lively synth pads hover over the sinuous basslines, layering in dynamic textures. Beyond the flex of virtuoso musicianship, what truly sets Ronnue apart is unapologetic, unabashed dedication. 

He’s stirring a far higher buzz with an infectiously pop-out remix of “You Got Me Open (Club Pop Mix).” Revitalizing the track with a disco house beat, making it six minutes long, with effervescent synth stabs, and vocal samples, Ronnue layers on club-ready energy. The “Club Pop Radio Mix” is a little more radio-friendly, shaving off a few minutes while still retaining all the key elements that make the full remix such an instant crowd-pleaser. With 3 minutes, it cements the single’s appeal across formats.

The “You Got Me Open (Club Pop Instrumental)” version, which is self-descriptive, allows the production to shine in its most naked, pure form, alighting on each of the dense sonic details producers Bernie Luv and Roc Phizzle have managed to shoehorn into this remix. The kick drums drive an undulating synth bassline and shimmering chords and strings envelop the listener in a nostalgia-inducing haze that’s thoroughly modern.

Since the first time playing Ronnue’s “You Got Me Open (The Club Pop Mixes)” EP, I had the delight of doing it on repeat. I am not getting enough since the full club mixes reveal new depth with each play, new energy whisking me to the dance floor. I find myself unable to stop hitting the “next track” button, addicted to getting lost in this perfect summer soundtrack again and again. I have a feeling you’ll also be stuck in the glorious sounds of this EP well into the next summer season.
