February 22, 2018. Now im not sure how fired y’all are, but the snippet of this track sent me all types of feels. It was just enough to divulge me into a frenzy of excitement. The powerhouse DJ’s are set to embark on the release of yet another sure fire hit and we are all ready to bare witness to this sauce. What have been a whirlwind of recent years for all of these guys, they are setting the tone to jumpstart festival season a month early with this smash.
Make sure to keep updated and check back for more announcements and details as they emerge.
“Like I Do” Delivered Right On Time
True to Brooks’ announcement, “Like I Do” landed on schedule on February 22, 2018, and it lived up to the hype the teasers had been building for weeks. The track leaned into a bouncier, more melodic register than “So Far Away,” giving Brooks room to bring his own signature bright, tropical-tinged production style into the mix rather than getting overshadowed by two much bigger names on the same credit line.
A Breakout Moment For Brooks
For Brooks, getting a co-sign this big was a legitimate turning point. He’d already been building buzz in the dance music underground, but sharing billing with David Guetta and Martin Garrix — two of the genre’s most consistent hitmakers — put him in front of an audience that dwarfed anything he’d reached solo up to that point. It also continued a pattern for Guetta and Garrix, who’ve made a habit of pulling up-and-coming producers into the spotlight through collaborations rather than always leaning on other established names. “Like I Do” became one of the go-to festival-season records that spring, exactly as this post predicted, giving all three artists a fresh anthem heading into the busiest stretch of the touring calendar.
