Martin Garrix: The Prodigy of Electronic Dance Music
Dutch DJ, record producer, and globally acclaimed electronic dance music phenomenon.
Garrix achieved meteoric fame at age 17 with 'Animals', becoming the youngest DJ to headline major festivals like Tomorrowland. He founded STMPD RCRDS in 2016 and has maintained top rankings in DJ Mag's Top 100 DJs poll.
- Garrix secretly produced 'Animals' under pseudonym GRX before its release, fearing industry prejudice against his young age.
- He performed at the 2016 Rio Olympics closing ceremony, making him one of the few electronic artists featured in Olympic events.
- Despite amassing wealth, he maintains an unassuming lifestyle and studied at Herman Brood Academy to refine his production skills.
- Garrix turned down lucrative residency deals in Las Vegas to preserve creative freedom and focus on original music.
