Martin Garrix

Now That I’ve Found You

feat. John Martin & Michel Zitron

On March 4, 2016, Martin Garrix officially launches his own label, STMPD RCRDS. Just one week later, the first release arrives.

On March 11, Now That I’ve Found You becomes the starting point of the label’s catalog. But the track had already been around for a while. Back in 2015, fans knew it as an instrumental ID often referred to as “Don’t Crack Under Pressure” (as reference to the TagHeuer commercial), played in several sets before being fully completed.

The final version brings in John Martin and Michel Zitron, two voices already iconic in progressive house. Their vocals transform the track, adding emotion and identity to a melody that was already familiar to fans.

Built around a strong progressive structure, the track blends uplifting chords with a powerful drop, staying true to the sound Garrix was known for at the time, while marking the beginning of a new chapter with his own label.

Now That I’ve Found You represents a turning point. It’s the first step of STMPD RCRDS, and the start of a new level of creative control for Martin Garrix.

Lyrics

Written by John Martin, Martin Garrix, Michel Zitron.

Flashback to the time in your life
When you thought it would be easy
But it’s hard when you take on the world alone

The one shot that you fire at the sky
Hoping someone else can see it
Just a sign that you’re not out there on your own

We come one tonight
I’ve been waiting for your wake up call
Growing stronger now
I can hear it in a thunderstorm

We sing, oh oh oh oh oh
I don’t want to do this without you
Oh oh oh oh oh
I won’t let go now that I’ve found you
Now that I’ve found you (found you, found you, found you)

Oh oh oh oh oh
I won’t let go now that I’ve found you
Oh oh oh oh oh
I won’t let go now that I’ve found you
Now that I’ve found you

Some say you can never go back
To the city built for dreamers
But I know we can find it on our own

The one shot that we fire at the sky
But this time we are together
We’re right here in this moment where we belong

We come one tonight
I’ve been waiting for your wake up call
Growing stronger now
I can hear it in a thunderstorm

We sing, oh oh oh oh oh
I don’t want to do this without you
Oh oh oh oh oh
I won’t let go now that I’ve found you
Now that I’ve found you (found you, found you, found you)

Now that I’ve found you (found you, found you, found you)

Oh oh oh oh oh
I won’t let go now that I’ve found you
Now that I’ve found you
