Martin Garrix “MARTY”: New Album, Release Date, Collaborations and Everything We Know
Martin Garrix will release MARTY, a 14-track album, on March 5, 2027 through STMPD RCRDS and Darkroom Records. The project pairs the Dutch producer with Madonna, U2, Ed Sheeran and AITANA, while also marking a more personal turn: Garrix sings solo on four songs for the first time.
According to Rolling Stone Canada, MARTY is positioned as Garrix’s first pop-dance album after the club-focused SENTIO, released in 2022. Its March 2027 arrival gives a longer arc to a rollout that has already produced five songs listed on Garrix’s official site.
MARTY arrives March 5 via STMPD RCRDS and Darkroom Records
The album takes its name from DJ Marty, Garrix’s first DJ alias. That reference to his beginnings is central to the framing of MARTY: rather than simply presenting another collection of festival-ready records, the 14-song set is described as a pop-dance project with an autobiographical throughline.
The contrast with SENTIO is useful context. Garrix’s 2022 album was presented around club-oriented electronic music; MARTY, by comparison, brings vocal performance and narrative subject matter to the foreground. The announced label partnership also places the release through Garrix’s STMPD RCRDS alongside Darkroom Records.
Madonna, U2, Ed Sheeran and AITANA lead MARTY’s guest list
The confirmed collaborations give the album an unusually broad set of pop connections. Madonna appears on “Bizarre,” U2 feature on “Fireflies,” and Ed Sheeran is attached to “Rewind Repeat It,” according to Rolling Stone Canada. Spanish artist AITANA is set to appear on an as-yet-untitled Spanish-language track.
Garrix has also said the album includes his first collaboration with a K-pop group. No group name is provided in the available announcement, so there is no basis yet to identify the act or attach a title to that track.
The named artists place established global figures alongside a Spanish-language collaboration and an unannounced K-pop partnership, while the available details stop short of a full tracklist. The songs announced so far suggest the range of the album’s featured voices without defining its complete shape.
Five released songs sketch the rollout
Garrix’s official music site lists five releases connected to the period leading into MARTY. In chronological order, they are “Catharina” on March 13, 2026; “Repeat It” with Ed Sheeran on May 15; “Bizarre” with Madonna on July 2; “Fireflies” with U2 on July 24; and “This Dream Of You” on October 2.
| Song | Listed release date |
|---|---|
| “Catharina” | March 13, 2026 |
| “Repeat It” with Ed Sheeran | May 15, 2026 |
| “Bizarre” with Madonna | July 2, 2026 |
| “Fireflies” with U2 | July 24, 2026 |
| “This Dream Of You” | October 2, 2026 |
There is one title discrepancy worth keeping clear. Rolling Stone Canada refers to the Sheeran collaboration as “Rewind Repeat It,” while Garrix’s official site lists the released song as “Repeat It.” Neither source in the supplied information explains whether this reflects an alternate title, a shortened listing or a change ahead of the album.
Garrix’s first solo vocals and MARTY’s autobiographical arc
Garrix sings alone on four MARTY tracks, his first solo vocal performances. Two of them—“Catharina” and “This Dream Of You”—were already released by October 21, 2026, making them the clearest available entry points into the record’s more inward-looking direction.
The album’s stated narrative moves from Garrix’s birth and family through fame, death and rebirth. “Catharina” was written about his mother, giving the project’s family dimension a specific focal point rather than leaving its personal framing as a general promotional claim.
With its title reaching back to DJ Marty and its collaborators stretching across pop, rock, Spanish-language music and K-pop, MARTY is being set up as a broad musical release. Its more distinctive promise, however, is that Garrix will place his own voice inside an autobiographical album narrative when it arrives on March 5, 2027.
