Some songs are destined to be festival anthems from the start and the 2013 collaboration between Sebastian Ingrosso and Tommy Trash is definitely one of them. Iconic doesn’t even begin to describe ‘Reload’ as over the past 12 years it has continuously wowed crowds around the world.

Originally released as an instrumental in 2012, ‘Reload’ found its spark a year later with the assistance of vocals from the legendary John Martin. Also helping in the writing of the lyrics was Michel Zitron, a regular collaborator with John Martin who has also delivered vocals of his own on Martin Garrix’s ‘Hold On.’ Together they came up with the unforgettable lyrics delivered perfectly by John Martin to complete the track.

The vocal version quickly surpassed the success of the instrumental and rocketed to #1 in the UK Dance chart as well as reaching #15 in the US Billboard Hot Dance/Electronic Songs chart. Since its release ‘Reload’ has amassed a whopping 265 million streams on Spotify and has continued to hold a place deep in the hearts of all dance music fans.

The star power behind this track didn’t disappoint delivering a track that hasn’t lost any of its festival power over the years. ‘Reload’ is a song where you don’t know whether to chant along to the melody or sing along to the lyrics with both being absolutely stunning. One thing’s for sure, it is and always will be one of the greatest festival anthems of all time.

Hi I'm Mackenzie and rather unsurprisingly, I love electronic music. After over 10 years of blasting my ears with everything from Martin Garrix to San Holo, I've found myself forever digging deeper into this world. If I were to name my top 5 favourite artists I'd say Martin Garrix, Oliver Heldens, The Prodigy, Hardwell, and Avicii make up that list. Alongside writing I'm also a producer who makes whatever comes to mind. Big room house, drum & bass, hardstyle, it's all fun to dig into. See you out in the fields people :)
