Martin Garrix Enlists Usher for Summery New Single "Don't Look Down"
EDM prodigy Martin Garrix broke out with his big-room banger "Animals" in 2013. The Dutch DJ hasn't been able to land a proper follow-up smash, but his new collabo with Usher sounds extremely promising with potential to blow past his breakout hit.
"Don't Look Down" opens with euphoric guitars and synths—not unlike recent Avicii tracks—that back Ush's croons about being in the moment of love: "Do you feel the lightning inside of you? / Will you follow through if I fall you? / Don't look down / Up this high we'll never hit the ground."
A blissful beat drop follows with for a dance breakdown we imagine we'll be hearing blasting through radios all summer long. Remember how we heard Calvin Harris' "Summer" all throughout the season last year? This has that same feel-good, carefree feel of "Summer"—there's nothing to think about here except dancing.
