Peking Duk released "Let You Down" on 13 October 2017 with the Swedish duo Icona Pop along for the ride, and it marked a first for the Australian electronic pair: Adam Hyde stepped up to the mic, the first time either of them had sung on one of their own songs. They pitched it as a modern heartbreak anthem, drawn from the 2006 film Candy and seen through the eyes of the character Heath Ledger played.
It runs in the future bass lane, came out on Sony Music Australia between the singles "Fake Magic" and "Wasted," and climbed to 37 on the ARIA Singles Chart. At the APRA Music Awards of 2019 it was up for Dance Work of the Year.
