High on Life (song)

Garrix's label had announced via Twitter the song would be immediately available for release "the moment (Garrix) plays it at #Tomorrowland" during his headlining closing performance. It was premiered at the Tomorrowland 2018 music festival in Belgium as the closing song on 29 July 2018. "High on Life" is one of the two songs announced by Garrix for release since his last single "Ocean" with Khalid, the other being a collaboration with Justin Mylo that would be released in September. The song has been played at the circuit after the 2021 Abu Dhabi Grand Prix where Garrix’s friend Max Verstappen secured his first Formula One World Championship title, the 2023 Austrian Grand Prix and the 2023 Las Vegas Grand Prix, the latter two races were also won by Verstappen. == Production ==

The song has been musically compared to Garrix's previous singles such as "Dragon", "Lions in the Wild" and "Forever", as an "energetic and emotion-filled progressive house track". The song is noted as a "return to his roots" in reference to Garrix's regular crossover musical style of pop music to his typical big room house and progressive house. Described as an uplifting summer song that is a "synth-heavy festival house tune", the song's production has been compared to the style of late Swedish DJ Avicii, who had worked with Garrix for the song "Waiting for Love". == Music video ==

The music video for the song has also been released, featuring clips from Garrix's Tomorrowland performance which shows "the most standard and spectacular face of Tomorrowland". It was released to YouTube and streaming platforms five minutes after the performance at Tomorrowland ended. == Personnel ==
