Kygo was asked to create the official anthem of the 2015 Ultra Music Festival. A song was used in their trailer for the Miami festival, which took place in March. The track is simply titled "ID" because it doesn't officially have a name.[2]

The vocal version of this song is called "Here for You", and features the vocals from British singer and songwriter Ella Henderson, which was released on 4 September 2015.

The instrumental tune follows the style of his highly successful predecessor "Firestone", combining soft melodies with the essence of tropical house.

Critical reception

Theo Maulen of EDM Assassin said; "It has a beautiful beat, mellow and relaxing, and gives a nice chill feel. Kygo doesn't break from his tropical house style and gets listeners ready for the 'paradise' that will be Miami next month."[3]
