Afraid To Feel

LF System is a Scottish DJ/production duo comprising Conor Larkman and Sean Finnigan. After releasing "Afraid To Feel" on May 2, 2022, it went viral on TikTok and became their first single to reach the Official Singles Chart.

LF System dug deep into their crate of vinyls for the track's sample. Taking Silk's 1979 tune "I Can't Stop (Turning You On)," they play with its speed as it switches between a heartfelt, soul-soaked number to a euphoric disco banger.

Richmond, Virginia, soul/funk group Silk released a solitary album, Midnight Dancer, through Philadelphia International in 1979. "I Can't Stop (Turning You On)," written by Charles B. Simmons, Joseph B. Jefferson, and Richard Roebuck, and featuring Debra Henry on vocals, peaked at #87 on the US R&B chart in 1980.
