Tiesto is the only artist to ever hold the titles of “The Greatest DJ of All Time” courtesy of Mixmag, “#1 DJ” according to Rolling Stone, and “The Godfather of EDM” as proclaimed by Billboard. After making history in 2004 as the first DJ to open the Olympic Games, he remains a sought-after headliner everywhere from Coachella, Electric Daisy Carnival, Ultra, to Tomorrowland. On the other hand, Martin Garrix has risen to global stardom in pop as well as electronic circles – and yet he’s far from being done. Dance music’s freshest talent has headlined festivals around the globe, founded a label and mentored other artists and won the #1 spot in DJ Mag’s Top 100 three times in a row. His passion, ambition, drive and maturity remain unmatched in the world.
In 2015, two of dance music’s biggest artists teamed up and to no surprise, they were a match made in heaven. Living legend Tiesto teamed up with Martin Garrix for a tune that underlines both artist’s innovative styles. ‘The Only Way Is Up’ revolves around distinctive vocal snippets, inimitably built as a unique melody line before euphoric chords take the track sky high. Mesmerizing, creative music and above all an outright hit.
