Capacity Posted March 19, 2016 Posted March 19, 2016 Remember the meeting between Martin Garrix and Mike Shinoda in November 2015? While Mike later said that the meeting was just to "throw some ideas around", a track has surfaced from the session. Martin Garrix recently premiered a new song with both Mike and Chester featured on it at Ultra Music Festival in Miami, FL. Check it out below. While we originally thought the song was just featuring Mike, we have updated the thread to mention Chester as well since he is harmonizing with Mike. For now, we're calling the song "Waiting For Tomorrow" due to the lyrics.Debuting songs live is nothing new for EDM artists, as Steve Aoki's collaborations with Linkin Park (A Light That Never Comes and Darker Than Blood) were both played live before their release.We don't have any information on a possible release of this song; we will keep you informed. Martin has a new album coming out soon, but the tracklisting hasn't been released yet. EDIT: Martin Garrix has uploaded a better quality version of the song. (10:15). DOWNLOAD: Live audio (.zip; 2:47 length) LYRICS: Verse: Remember we were staring up to those peaks on the horizon I promised I would never stop it In your name I would climb them There's nothing I have wanted more The only one I've been waiting for So hold your breath and close your eyes The end is unknown but still we rise Chorus: Counting down, to the light Through the night, just waiting for tomorrow Almost there, almost time All my life Just waiting It's only one more day, it's only one more day It's only one more day, it's only one more day Waiting for tomorrow Waiting for tomorrow Counting down, to the light Through the night, just waiting for tomorrow Almost there, almost time All my life Just waiting for tomorrow Counting down, to the light Through the night, just waiting for tomorrow Almost there, almost time All my life Just waiting for tomorrow Thoughts?

Stranger Posted March 19, 2016 Posted March 19, 2016 Looking forward for studio/official version. Quote
Andros Posted March 19, 2016 Posted March 19, 2016 Great...more dance music.... Agree with you. Quote
iPodwithnomusic Posted March 19, 2016 Posted March 19, 2016 Actually didn't sound too bad, I'm not a fan of the EDM style, but I like this more than Darker Than Blood. Quote
AParallelogramInTheSand Posted March 19, 2016 Posted March 19, 2016 I don't get why everyone gets so mad that they pop up on EDM tracks every once and a while. It's obviously something they enjoy and while I loved Recharged and would think an EDM album from them would be pretty good, I'd rather have them guest on some people's tracks instead. Quote
Tyleronlplive Posted March 19, 2016 Posted March 19, 2016 It's cool, Mike's singing has definitely improved lately but some of his parts before the drop don't sound like he should be singing there - maybe someone with a higher register. Quote
Mesck547 Posted March 19, 2016 Posted March 19, 2016 This actually sounds sick. I hope a studio version comes out soon. Quote
JJJ Posted March 19, 2016 Posted March 19, 2016 (edited) This song is a lot better than DTB imo, but then again, I don't really like Steve Aoki's music. ALTNC was cool, you could really hear LP's influence in that song. This song is mostly Martin Garrix' sound, which I personally really like. He is a great producer and DJ. Mike did a great job on the vocals, especially in the intro, but I have to agree with ATylerInTheSand, the parts before the drop don't quite fit Mike's voice tbh. Great song in my opinion, and also nice to see LP/Mike working with other artists in different genres! EDIT: Full live set (HD) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4r1tq1XBN0w Edited March 19, 2016 by JJJ Quote
GlassCastles Posted March 19, 2016 Posted March 19, 2016 Chester, or someone with a similar range, probably should have sung those "It's only one more day" lines. It needs an extra punch that Mike just didn't deliver on there. Otherwise, this sounds really good. Like it more than either of the Aoki tracks. Quote
Astat Posted March 19, 2016 Posted March 19, 2016 Chester is clearly singing along with Mike on the chorus you guys... Quote
Stranger Posted March 19, 2016 Posted March 19, 2016 Chester is clearly singing along with Mike on the chorus you guys... If Mike & Chester on the chorus, that means this song will be "feat. LINKIN PARK" instead of "feat. Mike Shinoda". Maybe? Quote
AStarkson Posted March 19, 2016 Posted March 19, 2016 (edited) Great...more dance music.... Heck, even BJA and Serj Tankian worked with Avicii before; I really don't think this should be a concern for the LP fanbase (any more). Unless you're not being sarcastic then I apologize lolol Edited March 19, 2016 by AStarkson Quote
RickLPL Posted March 19, 2016 Posted March 19, 2016 (edited) I think I can hear Chester in the chorus.One thing I don't like is that you can clearly hear auto tune. Edited March 19, 2016 by RickLPL Quote
Stranger Posted March 19, 2016 Posted March 19, 2016 I think I can hear Chester in the chorus. One thing I don't like is that you can clearly hear auto tune. Well, auto-tune is common thing for EDM songs. besides, i dont think LP gonna play/perform this song on their show right? Quote
RickLPL Posted March 19, 2016 Posted March 19, 2016 Well, auto-tune is common thing for EDM songs. besides, i dont think LP gonna play/perform this song on their show right? I certainly hope not! Quote
Jesper Posted March 19, 2016 Posted March 19, 2016 This sounds good. I hope we hear it soon enough, since DJs have the habit to record something add it to their set and release it like 6 or more months later Quote
RogueSoul Posted March 19, 2016 Posted March 19, 2016 Really digging this song. A lot more fun sounding and feels like more thought went into it than any of the Aoki songs. Quote
Astat Posted March 19, 2016 Posted March 19, 2016 One thing I don't like is that you can clearly hear auto tune. I take it you don't like most Linkin Park vocal tracks either then? Quote
RickLPL Posted March 19, 2016 Posted March 19, 2016 I take it you don't like most Linkin Park vocal tracks either then? haha no I mean like it's more audible on these kind of tracks. Quote
dagla Posted March 20, 2016 Posted March 20, 2016 Hardwell played In The End in his Ultra set, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m1ssAFzaCsUstarts at 38:20 Quote
hahninator Posted March 20, 2016 Posted March 20, 2016 The EDM artists love to play the new music before they release it. I wonder if Garrix will include this on his album. Quote
hahninator Posted March 21, 2016 Posted March 21, 2016 Updated the thread to include Chester. Actually I like it better than ALTNC and DTB. Quote
