The 20-year-old Dutch DJ opened up about the sound of his next album and his dream collaboration – Pharrell Williams!
“You can expect a lot of different types of sounds on it – I went into the studio with the mindset of I’m just going to have fun – there’s some weird 118 BPM shit on it – there’s some weird trap on it, I’ve made some hip-hop stuff – right now I’m still in the process of just making a lot of ideas,” Martin said about the album. “We’ll probably do 2 or 3 singles before the album so I think the end of this year we’ll drop.”

“I can’t wait. I’ve been brainstorming with the team about what kind of feel we want for the show. We’re all super-excited,” Martin said in a statement. “I’ll be here every two weeks mixing up my favorite tunes of the moment. So get ready: it’s going to be a massive two-hour session.

Martin Garrix has officially dropped his brand new single, “Lions in the Wild”.
The 20-year-old Dutch DJ teamed up with Third Party on the track, first playing it at the Ultra Music Festival in March, where he made history by becoming the youngest DJ of all time to close the main stage.
“Lions In The Wild” is powered by huge, triumphant orchestral breakdowns, laden with glorious strings and horns that create a highly emotive and cinematic atmosphere. The seriously catchy vocal takes those lush melodies to new heights.
Martin shared about the video, “The music video we shot for Lions In The Wild in Africa is INSANE. One of my favorite videos so far. Enjoy!!”
