An upcoming collaboration between Hardwell and Dutch Hardstyle artist Atmozfears has hit the internet after the two dropped a performance of it late last month. A SoundCloud Channel by the name of Preview Records has uploaded a live rip of the tune, dubbed “All That We’re Living For,” giving fans their first taste of the forthcoming single.

“All That We’re Living For” opens innocently enough with a mellow chord progression accompanied by gentle tenor crooning, creating a soothing intro for the track. Things quickly go awry from there, however, as the two producers layer in building percussion elements while gradually working the tempo upwards before the tune explodes into a driving Hardstyle drop with distorted gabber style kicks and jubilant synth chords.
The upcoming single isn’t the first time Hardwell has dabbled with Hardstyle, as the Dutch producer had previously explored the genre for his remix of The Chainsmoker’s “Don’t Let Me Down,” but he and Atmozfears still deliver a solid romp on their collab.
“All That We’re Living For” is rumored to appear on Hardwell‘s upcoming studio album, so be sure to keep an eye out for an official release in the near future.
