Martin Garrix takes a big step in his career, goes his own way.
If you’re a dance music fan and a follower, you would know that Martin Garrix has had a meteoric rise in the dance music industry. Many credit his music productions for that, but perhaps those even more responsible for his fast rise are his managers and labels. Spinnin’ Records infamous ID promotional trick launched “Animals” into the stratosphere and set the standard for promoting new artistes.
Now however, in a rather shocking turn of events, the 19-year-old Dutch DJ/producer is parting ways with his label and management teams at Spinnin’ Records and the accompanying MusicAllStars Management. As most, if not all, major artistes would like, the EDM boy wonder tried to negotiate getting full ownership of his music − and since the start of the year, all of Martin’s attempts has gone to no avail as he’s been brick-walled by the Dutch label.
Sharing his decision with fans, Martin took to Instagram to explain that there had been an ongoing battle for ownership over his music catalogue. In his posting, Martin also said that he does not want to discuss the situation any further and promised that he is working on new music and good news which he hopes on sharing with fans during the Amsterdam Dance Event.
That being said, the question still remains − where will Martin Garrix be taking his talent to next?
Given his rationale for parting ways with Spinnin’ Records and MusicAllStars Management, we’re certain Martin, who’s the first teen on the Forbes Electronic Cash Kings list will continue to do wonders and surprise us all. That being said, we wish Martin all the best in everything, irregardless of what he plans to do next.
