Biography
Danish electronic producer Martin Jensen specializes in energetic house with touches that range from big-bass festival EDM to lanky tropical. Born in Silkeborg, Denmark, the DJ started spinning on the side of his day job as a contractor. Posting mixes that sampled viral videos on the Internet, he developed a strong fan base on social media. His first single, the celebratory "Si" -- incorporating a sample of footballer Cristiano Ronaldo bellowing the eponymous exclamation -- became a viral hit in 2015. He quickly followed with the booming "Night After Night" and "Miracles," featuring fellow Dane Björnskov. The latter track featured a toned-down sensibility that saw Jensen adopt a more island-influenced sound similar to Kygo or Matoma. In 2016 he issued "All I Wanna Do" and "Solo Dance," which exploded on social media, nearing 142 million streams. That same year he was ranked 82 on DJ Mag's Top 100. "Wait", featuring N.Y.C. pop duo Loote, arrived in 2017, followed in 2018 by "Pull Up" and "16 Steps," the latter of which featured Olivia Holt. A short EP, World, also landed that year. In 2019, he recruited English crooner James Arthur for the track "Nobody." ~ Neil Z. Yeung, Rovi
