New EDM Friday: Martin Garrix, Armin van Buuren, Blasterjaxx, Ummet Ozcan, And More!

Martin Garrix – We Are The People (with Bono & The Edge)
After more than a year of anticipation and having to keep this a secret, Martin Garrix, Bono, and The Edge can finally unveil the official UEFA EURO 2020 single titled ‘We Are The People’. With the track in the making for three years, Garrix had felt from the early stages of the creative process that Bono’s vocals would make the perfect fit. His vision came to life when both Bono and his U2 bandmate The Edge agreed to feature on the song. The collaboration evolved further with Bono writing the lyrics and creating melodies and The Edge adding the leading guitar riffs, resulting in a perfect blend of the signature sounds of all artists.

Armin van Buuren & Tom Staar – Let Go
Lining up another collab of epic proportions, Armin van Buuren bumps fists with Tom Staar and Josha Daniel after collaborating with the former on 2020’s ‘Still Better Off’ (feat. Mosimann). Led by a driving bassline that propels the airy vocals and side-chained pads onward, ‘Let Go’ is a cut steeped in mystery and suspense, offering that instant release every dance music fan is looking for.

HARING – IN 2 U
This week’s release comes from EDMHouseNetwork newcomer HARING.Its refreshing to switch things up now and again with what we do and we have most certainly done that with this release.
