A month ago, Martin Garrix dropped a special lil’ something during his BBC Radio 1 show, and that lil’ something is officially out now. ‘Freedom’ is the result of the collaborative creativity between Mike Hawkins & Jay Hardway, and is out now on Spinnin’ Records. This Danish-Dutch duo have made ‘Freedom’ jam-packed with quirks and character, and ended up with a big sounding track that’s impressively dynamic. A standard introduction with a pleasant kick gets things off to a good start, but where this really shines is the build up; airy bouncing chimes, hastened strings and oriental backdrop make for an incredible listening experience. The breakdown is driven by a sexy bassline and sharp synths, making it suitable as club floor-lifter or a festival hell raiser. Stream ‘Freedom’ below, and let us know what ya think; who knows, maybe we’ll see more from these two together in the future.
