Martin Garrix’s ‘High on Life’: Celebrating 6 Uplifting Years

One of Martin Garrix’s top singles ‘High On Life’ turns 6 years old today! 

This is a song that quickly took over the festival scene back in 2018 upon its release on July 29. It became a fan favorite and a staple as a closing song in nearly all of Martin Garrix’s sets. 

I’ve heard this song at numerous festivals, like at Knock Knock in Pattaya where Martin Garrix rang in the New Year with it, and at Neon Countdown in Bangkok where it was the perfect opener and closer for the first day of 2023!

Released on July 29, 2018, ‘High on Life’ features the soulful vocals of Bonn and quickly rose to prominence, becoming a festival staple. Its release coincided with Martin Garrix‘s electrifying performance at Tomorrowland, where it was unveiled to the world. To feel high on life till the day we die is a sentiment felt globally, as it reminds us that life is something to be enjoyed till our last breath.

In an interview, Martin Garrix talked about how his song ‘High On Life’ was made to bring people joy and togetherness. He wanted to create a sense of inclusion for listeners. The track achieves this by uniting diverse audiences, all drawn together by their shared appreciation for the music and the experience.

‘High On Life’ remains influential among fans even beyond festivals, embodying the essence of joy and independence. This song doesn’t just mark the end of amazing nights; it sparks the beginning of exciting journeys, solidifying its status as a lasting classic in the EDM genre. 

As we commemorate the sixth anniversary of ‘High On Life,’ it’s evident that this song is not simply music—it serves as a wellspring of motivation and vitality. Martin Garrix‘s masterpiece has demonstrated that certain melodies don’t just withstand the test of time; they evolve into anthems that unite audiences for years on end.
