Playlist: What is Martin Garrix listening to?
Meet Justin Bieber's new favorite producer. After releasing his latest single with indie-pop singer Dua Lipa in January, Scared To Be Lonely, Marin Garrix signed on to the Australian leg of Bieber's Purpose tour as his opening act, kicking off in Perth on March 6. Before the rising EDM star heads Down Under, he shared a playlist of favorites with Paste BN.
Burning Man, Watt (feat. Post Malone)
This song is by one of my closest friends, Andrew Watt. He's such a talented writer and one of the best dudes I know — I'm obsessed with this one at the moment.
Something To Say, Loud Luxury
This is the jam! Recently did an interview at KIIS in L.A. and was super jet-lagged. Luckily, they had speakers in the green room and I threw this on repeat and woke up right away. It's an insane rework of a Craig David classic.
Spaceships, AREA21
Super different. Super energetic. AREA21 is a group signed to my label, STMPD RCRDS, that I am stoked on. It's good music to get everyone going at the pregame, party or after-party.
Hear Dat, TroyBoi x icekream
I've been following TroyBoi for ages now. He's such an insane producer. This record is just straight fire.
In The Name Of Love (The Him Remix), Martin Garrix and Bebe Rexha
The boys from The Him have been on a tear lately. When it came time to source remixes for In The Name of Love, we asked them to lend their talents. They killed it.
Leave This Place, Lione
L.A. producer and good friend Lione put this record out on STMPD RCRDS. It's one of our first few releases and one I am really proud of it. His production is top-notch and the vocals are next level.
When U Need Me, Mura Masa
Mura Masa is a legend. Always finding unique sounds and bringing things forward into the future. The song takes you on this journey and keeps you guessing the entire time. So dope!
Underwaterfall, Bearcubs
When it's time to unwind I find myself throwing this record from Bearcubs on. It sets the ambiance and allows me to disconnect from the hectic touring, recording and promo schedule.
Go (Expletive) Yourself, Two Feet
This song comes out of nowhere and hits you in the face. Right now, every time I'm at a party with my friends, this is our go-to anthem.
Empower, Taska Black
Watching this producer push genres and redefine boundaries is exciting. The dope production coupled with a throwback vocal sample is just right.
