Hailing from the city of Amsterdam, Mike Mago is best known for the 2014 single ‘Outlines’, a collaboration with Canadian electronic outfit Dragonette that reached #8 in the UK Singles charts. Since then he has released a steady stream of singles and remixes, also performing at the likes of Creamfields, Tomorrowland, and Ministry of Sound. Now, the Dutch DJ is behind the drop of his brand-new single ‘Take Me Home’. Steeped in powerful, poignant emotion, ‘Take Me Home’ is a rousing combination of impassioned vocals, glistening synths, and restrained breaks. It is the first single release from Mike’s forthcoming album, out next year.
To celebrate the release of his new single ‘Take Me Home’, Mike Mago selects his favorite tracks of the moment.
