"I'm drawn to the songs that get into your head and seem to stay there. That's the music that I love to create" says Martin Jensen whose uncompromising and unorthodox production style has garnered listeners from all over the world and racked up millions of followers on Facebook.

Continuing his meteoric rise, the next single "Solo Dance" featured a young singer that wanted to remain unknown. "She wanted to be anonymous and we kept our promise."

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."
