Martin Jensen

Martin Jensen is the most streamed artist in Denmark and with over 1 billion streams to his name already, Martin shows no signs of stopping. Originally wanting to take more of a ‘behind the scenes’ role as a lighting engineer and designer, Martin still likes to take a hands-on approach for the lighting, stage designs, and visuals for his gigs. However, his unmistakeable talent as a DJ quickly placed him in the spotlight as a musically creative powerhouse with the release of floor filler classic ‘Night After Night’ in 2015.

Martin’s first few singles catapulted him into the musical stratosphere, showcasing his innovative way of crafting happy sounds and tracks that resonate with fans from all over the globe. His breakthrough viral track ‘Si’ featured a sample of famous footballer Cristiano Ronaldo, and follow up single, ‘All I Wanna Do’, cemented his position as one of the world’s leading hitmakers. He has also gone on to collaborate with names including The Vamps, Timmy Trumpet and #1 artist James Arthur.

His global rise to fame undoubtably came from the meteoric hit ‘Solo Dance’, which has gone down as one of the most recognised tracks of the decade. From pop chart plays all over the world, to DJs keeping the dance floor alive, ‘Solo Dance‘ is firmly engrained in the millennial culture. With powerful female vocals and empowering lyrics, Martin explains the ethos of the song, “It’s about going out clubbing, and it’s really only a great night if you’ve been dancing all night long!”  – Something many of his fans can relate to!

At its peak, ‘Solo Dance’ received over 1 million daily streams, and to date it has received more than 620 million streams on Spotify alone. But it doesn’t stop there – remixes for Rita Ora, Ava Max, Sigala, and artist of the decade Ed Sheeran quickly helped in converting new listeners to fans the world over. The sky appears to not be the limit when it comes to Jensen’s skills. “I’m drawn to the songs that get into your head and stay there! That’s the music that I love to create,” says Martin, whose uncompromising and unorthodox production style has garnered listeners from all over the world and racked up millions of followers on Spotify, as well as social platforms Facebook, Twitter, Instagram and TikTok.

Entering DJ Mag’s World Top 100 DJs list in 2016 for the first time was no mean feat. Martin was the first Danish artist to be listed since Trentemøller in 2007, a very well-deserved accolade showcasing that his talent was recognised from the onset of his career. “It’s a massive achievement for a DJ. It’s just as awesome as reaching the charts in the US or the UK,” says Martin Jensen. “It’s amazing and extra awesome because DJ Mag’s top 100 is created by its readers – the fans that actually listen and dance to the music… Next I’m going to conquer the world!” As well as performing at Tomorrowland, Omnia Bali, Lollapalooza, Marquee, and the largest party venue on the planet, World Club Dome, Martin has proven his stickability and exceeded the level of quality to his shows and live achievements at a selection of some of the most heralded events on Earth.

Kicking off 2022, Martin went on an 8-city tour across USA. Throughout summertime, Martin held 10 shows across Denmark’s biggest festivals, toured Ibiza and did a Tomorrowland-gig. To close off 2022, Martin will embark on a 20-city tour in Asia.

Musically, Martin released ‘Criminal Minds’ and ‘Pages’, on W&W’s label, Rave Culture. Additionally, the track ‘One Day’ featuring FAST BOY was released on Dimitri Vegas & Like Mike’s label, Smash The House, compiling more than 14 million streams whilst averaging 80.000 streams per day and radio plays on German radio.
