A performance over a year in the making, the Electric Zoo Festival will welcome Martin Solveig for his debut DJ set on Saturday, September 1.

Martin's “Hello” went Platinum in the US, hit #1 in half a dozen countries and reached 100 million views on YouTube.

In April of 2012, Martin released his explosive The Night Out EP. In addition to the title track, it includes remixes from A-Trak, Madeon, The FatRat, and Maison & Dragen. Also included is a previously unreleased version of “Can’t Stop,” featuring Solveig’s frequent collaborator Dragonette.

Solveig was also a primary producer on Madonna’s new album MDNA, which debuted at #1 on the Billboard 200. Highlights include “Beautiful Killer” (inspired by Solveig and Madonna’s mutual passion for Jean-Pierre Melville’s classic crime thriller, Le Samouraï) and the hit single, “Give Me All Your Luvin” featuring Nicki Minaj and M.I.A. Martin recently told MTV News, "We were working with no limits. I think the only thing that she said when we started was 'I just want people to be able to dance to my music and connect easily with my music,' and also probably to take some risks at some point… Other than this, it was open to any kind of experimentation."
