Mike Williams Returns to His Roots with Future House Anthem "All My Life"

There's something poetic about Mike Williams dropping "All My Life (In My Heart)" on Future House Music this Friday—it's his first release on the label that discovered him in nearly a decade, and his first under his actual name since those WLLMS days that feel like a lifetime ago in dance music years. The Dutch producer has teamed up with Swedish hitmaker Philip Strand, who's been quietly racking up Billboard #1s and collaborations with everyone from Galantis and Armin van Buuren to JVKE and Icona Pop, to craft a track that feels like the exact moment in a video game when the hero finally claims victory. Those cinematic piano chords—Mike's signature move, always starting every track on the keys—collide with digitized basslines and lyrics that pulse "all my life I've been waiting for this, you're in my bloodstream dancing to my heartbeats," creating an enthusiastic, futuristic anthem that's pure melodic euphoria. "Good to be back with the guys who discovered me and my sound. 'All My Life' brings back the timeless melodies future house brought us," Mike reflects, and you can hear that full-circle energy radiating through every bar.

The timing couldn't be more perfect—this track is positioned as Mike's official ADE anthem and will take center stage at his highly anticipated "Storylines 2025" event during Amsterdam Dance Event on Friday, bringing things back to where it all started for one of dance music's most melodic storytellers. Since his 2017 breakthrough with "Feel Good" alongside Felix Jaehn (sitting at over 160 million Spotify streams), Mike's been consistently delivering both club bangers and radio-friendly hits like "The Beat" (83M streams) and "Wait Another Day" with Mesto (over 110M), all while maintaining that recognizable piano-driven sound that's landed him slots at Ultra, Tomorrowland, Parookaville, and pretty much every major festival you can name. What makes this collaboration with Philip Strand particularly interesting is the Swedish producer's rock music background and his ridiculous track record—two Billboard Dance/Mix Airplay #1s, over 650 million streams, and that "Roll The Dice" collaboration with Armin that dominated US Dance Airplay in 2023. Mike's been grinding non-stop, flying from Taiwan to Nepal to China while somehow still finding time to lock himself in studios from Blaricum to Ibiza to Stockholm, and "the response from the crowd at shows and online has been insane," he says, which honestly tracks because this thing sounds like it was engineered specifically to make festival crowds lose their minds. Whether you've been following Mike since the WLLMS era or you're just discovering him now, "All My Life (In My Heart)" is proof that sometimes the best move forward is reconnecting with the sound that launched you in the first place.
