You were selected as Top No.1 DJ in 2018 DJ Mag Top 100 DJs vote. How would he feel about success? It is just amazing to see what he has achieved in his 20s, considering his foremost hit tracks, being Top No.1 for DJ Mag Top 100 DJs Poll for three years in a row, the big artists he has collaborated with, the growth of his label STMPD RCRDS, the fabulous performance at the closing ceremony of 2018 PyeongChang Winter Olympic Games and the recognition of Tiësto, one of the main inspirations for Martin to become a DJ, claiming that he is also inspired by the young Martin Garrix. In fact, I wanted him to share what may have stressed or bothered him, or any behind-the-scenes stories, only to discover that he was a musician who pursued music in a righteous, happy and healthy life, rather than being lost in an aberrant lifestyle or buried in criticism. Everyone who has met or worked with him really likes him and complimented his cheerful but humble character, though he was already on a solid track to success in music. Consequently, he was voted to be No.1 DJ for three consecutive years.

DJ Mag Asia tries to figure out why…Īside from the speculation over others making the list, everyone expected that the No.1 of the Top 100 DJs poll from DJ Mag would be Martin Garrix since he has been at the peak of his popularity. His photo book was sold out in an instant, his documentary movie with Carl Cox made the headlines and he was featured on the cover of Vogue, the fashion magazine. You can see him in many advertisements and included in signature menus, like Martin Garrix pizzas and burgers that we ate during ADE. It is easy to encounter his music in everyday life at streets, fancy shops, cafes and pubs or through media, in addition to the clubs, festivals and corners of the dance music scene. World’s No.1 DJ for Third Successive Year! The whole world is talking about MARTIN GARRIX
