I will never, never ever sing on stage, but when I’m in the studio, I do sing melody lines. When I’m working with singer-songwriters, and I hear melodies, I can guide them. I will be like, ‘Oh no, do this this this.’ But you will never hear my voice on a Martin Garrix track. Martin Garrix Read Quote
I watched my idol and fellow Dutchman Tiesto. He was the first DJ to play live on stage at an Olympic event – the Opening Ceremony of the 2004 Summer Olympic Games in Athens. At eight years old, all I can remember thinking was, ‘I want to be a DJ.’ Martin Garrix Read Quote
I like making all kinds of music, it really depends on the moment. Sometimes I feel like making a weird trap song, and sometimes I can’t even attach a track to a genre. Martin Garrix Read Quote
I’m always excited to see the reaction of the crowd when I’m playing a new song. Martin Garrix Read Quote
I’m just having fun. I go in the studio, and I have no idea what I’m going to do, what I’m going to make. I’m going to make whatever I feel like making. Martin Garrix Read Quote
I think Dutch people are very sober. I don’t know if it’s the right word. Like, you have the most famous person walk by some Dutch people, and they’re like, ‘Oh, hello.’ And they maybe take a photo, but most of the time, they’ll respect you and leave you alone. And if you go to some other countries they will literally mob you, go crazy. Martin Garrix Read Quote
I’m a computer nerd. I’m behind my computer, like, 12 hours a day making new music. Martin Garrix Read Quote
