Martin Garrix and Lauv release “MAD” on 27 May 2025. The three-minute track appears under Virgin Records and Casablanca Records with licensing by Universal Music GmbH via STMPD RCRDS B.V. Produced by Martin Garrix, Osrin, and Mark Otten, the single follows its live debut during Martin Garrix’s headline set at Ultra Miami, where the performance set a strong precedent for the studio version.
After years of friendship, the two artists joined forces in the studio to record “MAD.” The song blends dance-pop elements with a memorable hook, clear guitar riffs, and Lauv’s distinct vocal delivery. Garrix builds on his experience from previous global hits to craft a record that reflects mutual creative vision and musical precision. Fans responded strongly to the live debut, and the studio release aims to capture that energy for a wider audience.

Lauv states, “Martin and I have been friends for years and it’s amazing to finally have a record together – what an inspiring DJ, producer, songwriter and human.” This collaboration follows Garrix’s recent work with Arijit Singh on “Angels for Each Other” and “Weightless,” a period that saw him expand his role as both producer and performer. Notably, “Angels for Each Other” marked the first instance of Garrix featuring his own vocals in a track.
The release of “MAD” exemplifies a moment in electronic dance music when live performance and studio craftsmanship converge to produce tracks with lasting appeal. Garrix’s successful set at Ultra Miami established a context that has now been translated into a record that speaks to fans of dance-pop and global club culture. The song stands as part of an ongoing tradition where electronic music innovators push creative boundaries while remaining true to the core of their musical roots.
