This is the end—Martin Garrix momentarily closes his club era this September with new EP ‘ORIGO,’ the final chapter of the trilogy that began with Sentio and IDEM. The project includes several unreleased IDs, including the just-released anthem “Inside Our Hearts” with long-time friend and collaborator Alesso.
Martin Garrix describes ORIGO as the final puzzle piece. The world’s No. 1 DJ shares: “ORIGO the final missing piece after Sentio and IDEM. All three are heavy club-driven projects built around the most requested IDs from sets over the years. ORIGO marks the end (for now) of the club-focused releases and gives tribute to the roots I started with Animals. A loop ends and a new era begins.”
The phrase that links all three projects “sentio idem ex origo” translates to “I feel the same from the beginning.” It’s a tribute to where he began, and where he’s headed next.
The Trilogy’s Core: Sentio and IDEM Delivered Festival Energy
Sentio and IDEM set the stage with high-impact production, fan-requested IDs, and club-tested power. Sentio, released in 2022, drew praise for its melodic structure, polished sound design, and big-name collaborations like Zedd and Justin Mylo. Then came IDEM in March 2024—a full-throttle festival EP that premiered at Ultra Miami and dominated Martin Garrix’s sold-out San Francisco shows. Tracks like “Carry You”, “Empty”, and “Biochemical” became mainstage hitters, racking up over 35 million streams.
It’s the sound of metamorphosis. An artist who’s grown louder, sharper, and more intentional with every stage he dominates. IDEM doesn’t just celebrate a decade in dance music—it reflects how Martin Garrix has evolved from prodigy to curator of moments. Each track feels like a personal checkpoint, echoing his transformation along the way. Beneath the festival fireworks lies a deeper pulse: a producer reckoning with identity, legacy, and the weight of his own expectations.
Now with ORIGO, he isn’t just finishing a trilogy—he’s consciously ending a chapter. This isn’t nostalgia. It’s precision and closure. It’s the moment an artist pauses, looks back at the chaos, and decides it’s time to build from the silence again.
Martin Garrix Ends the Trilogy with ORIGO to Open A New Chapter
Together, Sentio, IDEM, and now ORIGO represent a three-part celebration of Martin Garrix and his club legacy. Each release focused on fan-favorite IDs, polished production, and the emotional highs of electronic music at its most anthemic. It doubled down on what makes Garrix iconic: euphoric drops, festival fireworks, and emotionally driven melodies. At it’s core, Garrix doesn’t need to chase trends or reinvent himself to stay relevant—he’s already done the work.
ORIGO feels like a victory lap, but without the ego. It’s curated, not compiled. Designed to shake clubs, but also to clear creative space for what comes next. After years of relentless touring, collaborations, and festival domination, this EP lands with the weight of intention. It’s like him saying: this is what I’ve built—and I’m finally stepping off the loop. And once that final drop fades, the question isn’t what’s next?—it’s who will he become next? Because ORIGO doesn’t just close a loop, it sharpens the edge for what’s ahead. If this trilogy was about perfecting the club anthem, what follows could be something more raw, more intimate, or completely unexpected. Garrix has nothing left to prove in the big room. Which makes whatever comes next feel dangerous, exciting, and wide open.
Whatever’s on the horizon—new sound, self, or something we can’t even name yet—one thing’s clear: Martin Garrix just hit reset. And when the dust settles after ORIGO, the silence won’t last long. It never does.
ORIGO the new Martin Garrix EP arrives this September.
