    After 3 years of waiting, speculation, and false releases, the Mike Shinoda and Martin Garrix collaboration has (finally) been released as part of Garrix's new EP "BYLAW", which can be found on Spotify and other digital music services. In addition, Garrix has also released a music video for the track:


    Talk about this song first started in 2015 when Mike posted this selfie with Garrix in London, where they were working in a studio. When we asked Mike about it during our podcast, he said that it might result in something or it might not. We would have to wait and see.

    Portions of the song was debuted live by Garrix on March 16, 2016, when he played it during the Ultra Music Festival. Since then he has continued to play the song throughout his sets. Pierce Fulton later went on to play a different version of the song live and a version of this live version was recorded from the soundboard and leaked online as the official version. This was later debunked for the actual song.

    Throughout 2016 and 2017 Garrix mentioned in various interviews that the song would debut on his album, or that it would be released eventually. In October of 2017, after the passing of Chester Bennington, Garrix gave the first real update on the release of the song
    And, in April of 2018, he gave a less optimistic update on the release
    But here we finally are, we have the song and it clocks in at 4:07.

    What do you think of the song? Come and discuss it in our forums.

    This version has been out for a couple years now. It was just now that it was officially released.

    Wish it still had what sounded like Chester singing the harmonies on that 2016 Ultra Music Festival set, but with that said I'm glad we finally got an official release, Mike sounds great.

    Nope. Different lyrics/vocal track and longer runtime than any of the previous versions.

    It's alright. Definitely the best collaboration with an EDM artist they've done.
    Mike's vocals are nice.

    Yeah that's also what we call not real. Fake. A phony. Bullshit. You have been played.

    Wrong. Beatport is a pretty reputable source for EDM for DJs and clubs. Extended mixes of songs are available for DJs to use for their own mixes, often times with longer instrumental sections to make better segues. It's very common practice among the DJ community and looks legit. Beatport literally works with Native Instruments who provides their service with their software. The company also has a partnership with Shazam. They're pretty well-renowned for being one of the best online stores for samples and remix stems.

    They have literally won 9 awards for being the best EDM digital retailer since 2016 from Winter Music Conference, an EDM conference so fucking big that they decided to split off their music festival (which you may know as ULTRA MUSIC FESTIVAL, one of the biggest EDM festivals in the US/world) to a separate two weekends.

    So, how do I say, "yeah, your claim is what we call not real. Fake. A phony. Bullshit. You have been played."

    Maybe do your research before you talk down to people.

    Seems pretty odd that they're selling their own version of the song tho. Especially with no promotion from Mike that I've seen, or heard of from anyone else

    That's how EDM retailers work. DJ-specific vinyl and mixes have been around for a very long time. That was the primary source of acapellas and instrumentals for ages. Beatport is the digital version of that.

    Just because you don't see instrumental versions of hip-hop albums in the music section of Barnes and Noble doesn't mean that they're not available to those who make music for a living.
