For more than a decade, other singers have carried Martin Garrix's biggest vocal hits. On his next album, he takes the mic himself.
The date: March 5, 2027
Garrix's new album is called MARTY, and it's out Friday, March 5, 2027, on his own STMPD RCRDS and Darkroom Records. It has 14 tracks. The name comes from his first-ever DJ alias, DJ Marty.
He broke the news this week at a secret DJ set at P60 in Amstelveen, his hometown, hosted with Spotify just before Amsterdam Dance Event. According to EDM.com, which was there, Garrix told the crowd he played his first shows ever at that venue.
He's calling it a pop album. Garrix told Rolling Stone that MARTY feels like "the first pop album — pop-dance, basically," and says his 2022 album Sentio was a club album. Darkroom's press release, as quoted by EDM.com, also calls it his "debut pop album."
Garrix sings on it
This is the big change. Rolling Stone reports that Garrix sings solo on four of the album's songs, his first time doing that. Two are already out:
- Catharina, released in March and named after his mother. It was his first solo single with his own vocals. Apple Music
- This Dream of You, released Oct. 2. He introduced it during his 2026 Tomorrowland set. Apple Music
He also told Rolling Stone that Bono coached him on his vocals after hearing early demos.
The songs and features confirmed so far
Rolling Stone lists the features confirmed so far, and says more will be announced:
- U2 on Fireflies
- Ed Sheeran on a song first made more than a decade ago
- Madonna on Bizarre, which is also on her album Confessions II
- AITANA on Garrix's first song in Spanish, still untitled
Apple Music's MARTY page already names four of the 14 tracks. The other 10 are still listed as numbered placeholders:
- Track 2: Repeat It (with Ed Sheeran), out since May. Apple Music
- Track 4: Catharina
- Track 7: This Dream Of You
- Track 13: Fireflies (with U2), out since July. Apple Music
At the Amstelveen show, Garrix also premiered an unreleased song with his own vocals that fans are calling "Ghost." Until it's officially titled, it's an ID.
STMPD RCRDS takes over ADE
STMPD RCRDS turns 10 this year, and it's celebrating in Amsterdam this week:
- Today, Wednesday, Oct. 21: a three-hour pop-up at a secret spot inside Schiphol Airport, from 8 to 11 PM Amsterdam time (11 AM to 2 PM PT). Julian Jordan, Brooks, Citadelle and Nova Blue play. Access details are only being shared on STMPD's and Schiphol's official social channels.

Why it matters to fans
