(Another M.I.K.E., known as Mike, is an Indonesian Singer who won the finals of Indonesian Idol. His songs are tagged on this page.)
Although mostly known for his productions under the aliases M.I.K.E., Push and Plastic Boy, Mike has released hundreds of records under more than eighty aliases and collaborations since 1992 in a wide variety of styles ranging from rave, techno, progressive house, trance, electro to even R&B, from accessible commercial anthems to minimalist underground sounds. He also produced tracks for Yves DeRuyter, Marco Bailey,Armin Van Buuren, Ian Van Dahl and Diabokua.
At the age of 18, Mike handed his first demo tape to the Antwerp record company USA Import Music and released his first record as Vision Act. In 1996 he signed with Lightning Records (the parent company of Bonzai Records) where he worked with most of its artists and achieved his major commercial breakthrough in 1998 with the trance anthem "Universal Nation" under his Push guise, one of the best selling dance vinyls of all time which even ended up in mainstream singles charts all over the world. This was followed up by two more chart hits, "Strange World" and "The Legacy".
As the list continued, creating such hits brought on major appeal by huge names like Moby, Ferry Corsten, Armin van Buuren, Gareth Emery and so much more - which of whom M.I.K.E produced impressive collaborations and remixes for.
As time passed and M.I.K.E.'s name spread, popular demand began to expand rapidly worldwide! From the UK, to cities all around Europe & straight across the Atlantic & into North America and down Latin America, Asia and Australia - Ministry of Sound, DanceValley, Tomorrowland, Trance Energy, Winter Music Conference - were some of the prestigious venues that till this day M.I.K.E. is noticed for as a top leading performer/DJ.
And we wonder, where does he find the time to make so many hit releases? Through the wave of fans, the touring, atmosphere and passion for music are what tell the stories behind each of his exceptional tracks labeled under monikers Push, Plastic boy, to his most widely used name - M.I.K.E.
And now teaming up with labels such as Sirup Music, High Contrast Records, Garuda Music, and Armada Music, he continues introducing fresh new sounds with edge & a twist of progressive and club house for a totally modish blend. You can grab a taste on his weekly radio show 'Club Elite Sessions', also heard on various stations worldwide including SiriusXM and Digitally Imported Radio .

De ba' pratar David Letterman (chit chat chit chat)

Guzzar de kommer och går pengar består (ah)
Alla gå på samma tråd men vem faller ner

Ja mannen vi är först vi har tagit segern
Jag är in love med den röda sedeln
Mannen du är bush ställ dig bak i ledet
Om du är min blood ger dig halva delen
Toastar en för alla mina som Koffee
Bouncaren min lilla diva som Logic
Vi jagar lappar re medans de snackade
Så nu vi fully charged up som en laddare
Toastar en för alla mina som Koffee

The lyrics of M.I.K.E.'s song "Logic" refer to a character who presents himself as a successful and important businessman. He boasts about his genetically altered handshake that increases his speed, the expensive pen he owns, and his use of big words in his language. He also reveals that love is just an exchange of corporate documents and that he sees people as prospects for mechanical salvation, rather than as individuals. Nevertheless, he tries to sell his ideas of potential cooperation between companies, promotion possibilities, and raises based on performance.
Through these lyrics, M.I.K.E. seems to be criticizing the corporate world's materialistic and calculating nature, showing how corporations see people as assets and resources, rather than as human beings. The character portrayed in the song seems to have lost the ability to connect with others on a personal level and relies on his business strategies to achieve success, missing out on the essence of life and relationships.
Overall, "Logic" is a commentary on the dehumanization and objectification that occurs when corporations prioritize profit and competition over human connection and compassion.
