Martin Garrix & Tiësto – The Only Way Is Up [May 4 – Musical Freedom]

After countless selfies posted together and various appearances with one another on stage, the collaboration between Martin Garrix and Tiësto has now finally seen the light of day. It was playing in the background of the 7-Up advertisement that annoyingly appeared every time you refreshed the ultra live stream, and is titled “The Only Way Is Up”. We got our first listen back in December as the two DJs played a B2B set for Radio 538 in the Ziggo Dome in Amsterdam. It’s spreading around the radio like wildfire, and will be in your favorite DJ’s radio show without question. “The Only Way Is Up” will be released on May 4.

Even though this tune will drop on Tiësto‘s label, it’s pretty obvious why Martin Garrix is listed as the primary artist. Garrix seems to have refined his sound a bit, going with a progressive house vibe instead of his typical big-room sound. Think along the lines of “Forbidden Voices” with a little bit of Tiësto‘s “Take Me” all mixed together. Their creation rocks a high-energy melody that’s quite catchy and hard to resist. The melody is the same for both the breakdown and the drop, but works with great effectiveness just the same. “The Only Way Is Up” will be an unavoidable tune for the summer season.

“The Only Way Is Up” will drop on May 4 via Musical Freedom.
